This shoot was so much fun! It was super last minute but I had been wanting to go shoot at a beautiful location that only works in the afternoon. (Unfortunately!) So, a few days before (once I could see that we wouldn’t get rained out!) I called my model team and we headed out for a patriotic themed shoot. I loved every moment of it!!
I know it feels like an entire summer away but we will blink and these beautiful girls will be off to new adventures. I say this EVERY year but I get soooo excited for my outgoing seniors! College is a BLAST and they have NO idea what they’re getting into! Have fun and be good, my sweet girls! Love you!!
I bet we had 20 people holler out their car windows “Congratulations!!” to these sweet high school graduates. They deserve that and so much more… but sadly that’s pretty much all their getting. Hopefully at the end of June they will get to gather- WITHOUT PARENTS!!- and stand up to be acknowledged for their achievements. BUT, I’m not sure our world has ever been more proud of a graduating class. These seniors are taking this in stride and I just couldn’t be more proud of them.
This shoot had to be pushed off due to COVID but it gave time for things to become beautiful and green! It makes me so sad that these girls didn’t truly get to celebrate their senior prom. However, I am LOVING seeing these beautiful prom dresses on Insta and seeing these seniors celebrate as much as they possibly can. While these girls will never forget their “senior prom”, it’s got to be so dang hard not having that experience.
Every year I have people asking if they can bring their horse along for their shoot. YES! I LOVE having horses there. They take time (typically a LOT of time) and are a good challenge but it’s a challenge I always look forward to! I strongly encourage my girls to come with some different poses in mind that fit the personality of not only them but also their horse!
I have taken pictures of these cute girls for a few years now. I love that they all decided to cheer their senior year. I can’t wait to see what they go on to accomplish throughout the next few years in college! It’s right around the corner!
For more years than I can count I have been the lucky photographer to take pictures of this team. It’s so much fun to watch these girls grow not only as cheerleaders but just grow older and more and more beautiful. I get to know some of them really well. I hope this is a tradition that doesn’t ever end. (I mean, at some point I want it to end but not for years and years and YEARS! ;))
I have known Ethan since he was 9 years old. They lived across the street from us for years, I did his older brother’s pictures a few years ago, and their youngest and my oldest are super good buds. It’s been so fun watching him grow up…. but I nearly crashed my car the first time I saw him behind the wheel… where does the time go?!? Ethan, thank you for putting up with me all morning. It was nothing short of amazing!
I LOVE LOVE LOVED my time with Cara and her mom. What incredible people!! They were beyond sweet and just a dream to work with. Cara was the first senior I have taken pictures of from her high school. I adored the light blue cap and gown. What a beautiful color. But not as pretty as Cara. Seriously. She is ADORABLE! (And completely stunning, obviously!)
Dylan was such a trooper! He had three of us there helping him with his every move. He was incredibly tolerant of us. He has such a sweet personality and hair that any girl would absolutely die to have!! Thank you, Dylan, for hanging with your mamas and me all morning! Hopefully we didn’t make it too painful. ;)
Anna’s shoot was so beautiful. We headed a little ways out of town so that we could get beautiful views, tall grasses, and some peace and quiet. And it worked. The weather was so perfect. Her hair and make-up looked natural and simple. Her clothing choices were pure gold. Anna, thank you for letting me take pictures of you. I honestly loved spending my morning with you and your cute mama!
What a FUN shoot!!! I did a similar shoot to this last year but this year I changed things top a little bit. I got some new decorations (because why not!) and treated it more like an Instagram set! An insta set is just a little vignette that is decked to the nines. I wanted this one to ooze of Christmas cheer. We even had Christmas music playing! The girls who were invited to this shoot were my current models and their junior friends. I loved this and I think I’ll do it again next year. I loved meeting their friends and seeing the fun they all had together.
Working with my spokesmodels is always fun! They’re so sweet and always up for fun shoots. When I asked them super past minute to head out early on a Saturday morning to take some pictures in the fall leaves they jumped at it! We had so much fun and got a lot of beautiful pictures in less than an hour!
Abby’s shoot was awesome because I got to try a location I have been wanting to break in for a while now! She had such a fun style and we pulled in cheer too! I’ve been taking pictures of Abby for 4 years now and have also done her older sister’s senior pictures as well as her older brother’s! Now mama can finally have big prints of them all at the top of the stairs! She’s been so patient!
Bri’s session was so so beautiful. Fabulous light. Perfect location choices. Great clothing. And of course an incredible senior! Thank you, Bri, for letting me take your senior pictures! As a side note, this cutie went to SCOTLAND this summer! WHAAAAT?! So so jealous!
Grace’s location was AMAZING! When seniors come to me with private locations they have access to I get giddy! I love going to new places… and with animals?!? YES PLEASE! Horses allllllllways make me work. But I like a good challenge. :) As a bonus, I’ll be seeing this adorable girl at our National Charity League meetings for the rest of the year! Yay!!!!
I loved Olivia’s session! I love that we took them AFTER she graduated! There’s never a wrong time to take your senior pictures. (Actually that’s not true… there are a lot of wrong times to do it but right after you graduate isn’t one of them! ;))
Madysen’s shoot was GORGEOUS! I know I always say that, but you guys! The flowers were probably 25 feet tall! Ok, not really. But they were probably 4 feet tall. The sun was shining and the weather was perfect! I enjoyed every single moment of it! Her family is so cute and I can’t wait to get my photography hands on her sister in a few years! It will come all too quickly!
I’ve known Trace for years. And last year I did his older brother’s senior pictures. AND his mom is a super close friend of mine. AND she’s my videographer! I adore this family! I loved spending the morning with Trace… who didn’t need even 5 seconds to relax in front of the camera. Every single picture I got of him was a natural smile. Trace, you’re adorable! Thanks for hanging out with me for the morning!!
Chloe is absolutely as sweet as they come. She is so beautiful and was a champ at her really chilly photoshoot. Seriously. It was cold. We tried out a fresh location that I had only been to once. I’m so glad we did because it was PERFECT for her. So much variety and just stunning! Chloe, thank you for letting me take your pictures! I had a great time and can’t wait to see where you dance off to after high school. Somewhere amazing, no doubt!
