Sparkling Senior

Sorrynotsorry I had such a hard time narrowing down photos from this gorgeous senior session. Eileen is a sparkling gem with a natural presence on camera. She is fun, kind, and spontaneous! And let me tell you: she comes by it naturally, as you’ll see by the family pics that […]

Sunny at a Distance

This was my first photoshoot wearing a mask and keeping a 6′ distance from my subject. It was weird! Usually if I see a hair out of place or a shirt bunching up weird, I just fix it and keep going. But not this time! I was determined to maintain […]

Renaissance Man

The thing that strikes you about Justis right away is actually not one thing at all – it’s everything. He was quiet at first, and bundled up in a bulky winter coat, so I thought perhaps he wasn’t interested in having his picture taken. But within minutes of talking to him, […]

Holding onto Home

When you get to watch a little spunky kid grow up into a bright and gorgeous young woman, you count yourself lucky to be able to capture her senior pictures. When that young woman requests her senior pictures to be taken at her childhood home-away-from-home (that is, summer camp), you […]

Raising the Bar

This young man may be interested in studying law after his graduation this coming Spring, but if that falls through, he should seriously consider a modeling career! He has a natural sense of his best angles, and that was only one of the reasons I enjoyed photographing him so much! Other […]

He Brought It

There are some things that come together so perfectly you’d think they must be planned… Like for instance: say you arrive in a location that you’ve never really been to, and you’re supposed to get your senior photos taken there. And let’s say you’re part of your marching band’s drumline, and […]

Counting the Days

Remember that feeling your senior year of high school, when time literally slowed down and the days could not pass quickly enough!? This kiddo sure does! Despite being totally over it, she still manages to look serene and effortlessly stunning. Loved getting these senior portraits of Jenny leading up to […]

The Football Star

Being that I know little to nothing about football, I was a bit intimidated to take this senior’s portraits on the football field. I believe when we met my first question was, “So you’re like an important player on the team, eh?” — yeah, he probably thought I was pretty […]

Linguist, Historian, Model

It was really hard to choose favorites from Casey’s senior portrait session. Between his confidence, effortless charm on camera, and the rich autumn colors around us… it was a perfect shoot! Ok yes I’m sure he’ll do great studying linguistics and history, but if all else fails don’t you think […]

The Musician

By far the best parts of taking senior portraits is getting to capture each individual kid’s personality. I always go into a shoot with that ultimate goal: show this kid – capture who they are. Luckily for me, that was such a breeze with Brandon. While he started out a little hesitant […]
