When this guy’s mom first reached out to me she mentioned that they really wanted to capture some great portraits and “oh maybe a few” to show the sports that he did. As we continued talking and planning for Jay’s session she casually discussed his busy schedule and I realized this wasn’t just going to call for a “few sports shots”. This guy is a three sport athlete who is going on to play one of those in college - so uhhhhhhhh yeah we’re going to create something amazing to celebrate that! I think at the end of the day not only did we get some fantastic portrait art but we got images that really showcase Jay’s personality and love of sports that put a few tears in momma’s eyes:)

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!

One of my previous senior families came back for another round:) I did Kellyn’s sister’s senior portraits three years ago and I just adore this entire amazing group of people! They are always up for some fun and so trusting of the process that they make it easy to get amazing images - not to mention that they are all just down right adorable. Kellyn had to include his prize posession Rosie and of course we took some baseball images just for dad. And as expected my afternoon shooting this kid had me laughing the entire time! Killer images of Kellyn to celebrate his senior year!

Ashley came in for her first meeting with her whole family and I knew that right away that this was going to be an amazing time to create her senior session. We worked together over a few weeks to get locations lined up and wardrobe decided on. I love when seniors are so invested in making their session personal and completely unique to their story. Ashley was all about it and we had a plan to not only capture gorgeous senior portraits that celebrated her love of the outdoors but also her passion for scuba diving. I know we got exactly what she was hoping for and when parents tear up at the results than I’ve done my job precisely as I had planned and hoped for! Ashley - thank you for trusting me with your senior portraits and I can’t wait to see what amazing adventures lie ahead for you!
