charlotte-nc-senior-portraits | jay by Staci Noel

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Jay run at meets for a few years now and let me tell you he is a blast to watch on the track! I’ve photographed his whole family for his gorgeous mama a few times now and she always comes with a lot of style and flair and I knew Jay’s senior uptown session was going to be amazing! Last minute we had to rearrange our track location and I’ve never had such a happy accident - the new location not only had his primary school color but always showcased the awesome Charlotte skyline in the background. Good luck running for the UNCC 49ers next year and congrats on an amazing senior year!

I absolutely fell in love with Kira the first time I met her! She was the epitome of the word bubbly; everytime we met for a session she was positively beaming, Her sweet little smirk made me crack up everytime and we would end up giggling through every set. And oh boy - the sets of images we shot! Camp North End in Charlotte is an amazing backdrop for senior photos and we took advantage of a gorgeous day in North Carolina. We even got to include her shy fur baby in a couple of studio shots! I love it when we can create magic that’s all about the things that are important to you! I also love that mom made sure to tell me that being able to see Kira’s adorable freckles was important to her as photographers in the past had gotten rid of them in images - THE HORROR! I want to showcase everything that makes a client uniquely them!

PERSONALITY! All of my seniors come to their session with attitude and their own personal sense of what they want and then some of them come with their whole entire being in every shot! Kaelin brought all of herself to our session; from how she styled her wardrobe, to her posing and her natural expressions, SHE EVEN BROUGHT HER FUR BABY:) I adored working with her to capture everything she loves about herself as a high school senior!

harrisburg-nc-senior-portraits | Kaylee by Staci Noel

Kaylee was one of my seniors that I will never forget! I photographed her older sister a few years prior and I absolutely adored working with this whole family so I knew we were going to create some amazing imagery to celebrate her senior year and oh boy was I right! Kaylee knew exactly how she wanted to be photographed and her personality shines through in each of our sessions; including the quick tag on session we did at Hickory Ridge High School to honor her time as an outstanding athlete for the tennis team. I’m so in love with all of her galleries I could hardly narrow down what to post - which is why there are so many images to share here:)


harrisburg-nc-senior-portraits | Jessica by Staci Noel

When seniors come to me with specific ideas or asks for their senior portraits I do everything I can to make sure we create custom portraits that capture those things. It’s such a personal thing to have your portrait taken and this time in your lives is such a specific and fleeting moment. So when Jessica wanted outdoor portraits but said she absolutely had to have creek images I knew we were about to have some fun! Despite it being October and just a tad on the cool side she braved the woods, and the climb down and the chilly water to get images that were jaw dropping in every way!
