Hailley : Senior

This shoot was quick but oh so fun! Hailley and her mom met me downtown for Hailley's shoot and the weather was great. They would say Hailley is a bit shy and reserved, but I say she's a natural in front of the camera - I mean look at that smile! :) Hailley loves to read and enjoys the snow... as you will soon see. Congrats to Hailley on her senior year and best of luck after graduation!

Here is her sneak peek!

Trevor : Senior

I hadn't done a morning shoot in a long time, but I'm SO glad that's what worked out for Trevor's senior pictures! The light was gorgeous, there was no wind, and the temperature was perfect. Trevor has so many interests and talents. He can play a variety of instruments, loves to read, enjoys learning, and will be going to college to become an engineer. We started at a favorite location of mine, then headed to Trevor's dad's house for the rest. What a great idea! We were able to tie in some sentimental things that represent how much he has grown/changed. There is a willow tree in his dad's back yard that was just a small tree when he was little... then the dock he used to play on... and his childhood treehouse! I don't know if Trevor was as excited as his mom and I were, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Trevor - have a great senior year, and early congrats to you on graduating!

Sarah : Senior

Sarah is full of joy. You can tell the moment you meet her. Her joy overflows - and she doesn't stop smiling. :) I'm glad one of her teachers recommended me, because I had so much fun taking these pictures! We had perfect weather for Sarah's shoot - though downtown was crazy busy because of a concert at the arena! Sarah was willing to walk in HIGH heels (or barefoot) everywhere I took her (which was all over)! We ended our day at the park with beautiful light. She brought along her close friend Morgan and we took some shots with the two of them, as well! We almost got pooped on by birds (twice), walked through broken glass, got screeched at by birds while walking through stickers, and rolled a few ankles... but we got some great shots!

Sarah - it was a joy taking your pictures. Congrats on graduating and good luck in this next season of life!

Here are a few of my favorites from our session:

Bridget : Senior

Bridget is the sweetest girl - and I'm pretty sure if I were 10 (okay 15) years younger, we would be BFFs. :) She has a beautiful smile and is so easy-going! It was super windy yesterday, but Bridget never complained. She was up for anything! We had some interesting aspects to our shoot... LOUD trains, sharp cacti, and did I mention the wind?? We still had a great session. Bridget and I have the same favorite car - the VW van. Seriously, BFFs. We learned this when we saw one drive by us at the park and we both got excited! Soooo... naturally, we had to take a picture with it. :)

Congrats on ALMOST being done with high school, Bridget! Good luck with college!

Here are a few of my favorites from our session:

Trevor : Senior

I know this guy (and his family) because they're our neighbors! Trevor has three brothers and one sister, but this is his time in the spotlight - because he's a SENIOR! :) His mom (Laura) and I rescheduled his session because of major wind, and I'm so glad we did. We had a beautiful evening! We headed downtown for the first half of his session, and found some great spots. Then we headed to a park (after running by his house to pick up forgotten shoes ;)). Trevor is going to Newman next year as a Theatre major. I can tell he is going to do an amazing job! I'm pretty sure I learned more about movies during our one-hour session than I had known prior! Trevor was so much fun - he was up for anything. Laura was great at getting "real" smiles and laughs. :)

Congrats and good luck, Trevor!
