This is a super busy week. I have a session every night and two on Wednesday. Next week is slower, so I will be taking some vacation time. :) I had a great session Monday with Stephanie! We got some awesome images. Thanks for asking me to take your senior pictures Stephanie!
Monday night I had a great time shooting Breana and Sophia's senior sessions! Breana and Sophia are step sisters, two completely different styles but each beautiful and sweet. We started out at MSU then went to the downtown area and shot. We didn't finish up until well after dark! But that is ok, they were up for anything, so we just kept going! We tried a few serious shots and once the girls saw that they could totally pull them off, they were willing to do more. On Tuesday we shot some indoor pictures, I have gotten a chance to work on the sneak peek for those, but I will soon. We got some fun ones! I hope you love the sneak peek as much as I do!!!
Friday I did another senior session. This time it was my neighbor Charlie. We went to the high school and then to the Hengesbach farm. Charlie is such a nice guy! Thanks Charlie for letting me take your senior pictures! I hope you like them!
Last week I took pictures for Kevin. I hadn't seen him since our last session with his big sister Natalie. I couldn't believe how he had grown. And how incredibly handsome he is! What a doll! We tried for a few of all the kids together but by that time he was not in the mood. :) We decided to wait for those pictures for the next session, which is a family session outdoors. His sister's however, were all about getting their pictures taken! Thanks Erikka! See you next week!
I have known Whitney since she was just a little baby! I used to babysit for her and Matt. I know that might make me sound old, but I am totally not. lol We shot all over.... a flower garden, urban and ended in a grassy field. I swear lately every time I take pictures for a senior girl, we get some strange guy coming up to us. This session was no different. These guys wanted to tell us the year every building in St. Johns was built. Good thing Whitney's dad, Dan came along, he distracted them while we continued the session. Although I think he was just there for the ice cream. lol Thanks for asking me to shoot your senior session Whitney!!
We went out for a second session with Tessa last week. We went all over, studio, sports, gardens, piano, urban...we did it all. I got to catch up with Tessa's mom Jill and Tessa got the honor of hanging out with us. lol I even got to play around with the off camera flash! Yeah!! Tessa was picking on me because every time I got a shot I loved she could tell by the grin on my face. I had a hard time picking out favorites, I hope you love them as much as I do!!
We did a two day session with Krista. We went to a pond that Krista's uncle owns. It was a beautiful place to take pictures. Water, beach, a cabin with cool barn wood and a grassy field, what more could a photographer ask for! Then we headed to town for some flowery shot, and the next day went to Portland to get some more great pictures! Thanks for choosing me to take your senior pictures Krista, I hope you love them!
This is little Mr. Charlie. Charlie's mom Teagan contacted me when she heard I have done "Littlest Hero" projects. Many of you probably remember my last "Littlest Hero" Andrew. I was happy to photograph this sweet family! Charlie was diagnosed with downs syndrome when he was born. Shortly after they found out this little angel also had leukemia. So you can see how he would make a perfect candidate for being a Littlest Hero. He sure is a hero to his mom and dad. He is now doing good. They are watching him closely praying that he continues to do fine. Charlie is such a sweet heart. He did great, even after being woken up from a nap to get the session done. Big sister Lilly also did great! It was an honor photographing the Drayton family. I hope you love your pictures!
