This adorable family of three has another on the way… so we figured we’d better share some favorites from Adeline’s one year session before she becomes a big sister! Life is hectic, the world is crazy… but this beautiful, smiling angel eating her cake is enough to make anyone smile. 🙂
I enjoyed all my 2020-21 senior sessions, but this young lady holds a special place in my heart! I’ve known Leah for several years, survived a pandemic school year with her and we met up for FOUR different shoots between her two summer sessions, her fall session and lastly, her cap & gown session. We met for coffee just a couple days before her graduation & captured the last few memories of her senior year of high school. Although it took me all summer to blog these, I’ve been looking forward to sharing them and finally closing out our sessions from the class of 2021. We wish all our graduated seniors the best of luck as they head to college and out into the world this fall. Leah, you will be missed… but Capital isn’t far away, so instead of “goodbye” I’ll say “see you soon” (insert tear!).
Only two more Class of 2021 seniors to showcase before the new class comes along… and we couldn’t forget about Reina! I’ve known her for a few years and she is always good for a laugh (although she was unusually quiet during our session!?) I’ll miss seeing her smiling face and hope she enjoys life in the “real world” starting this fall!
We got exciting news this week that baby Quinn made her appearance into the world… making Jack a big brother! So before heading to visit this adorable family later today to meet their newest little one… I wanted to make time to share their BEAUTIFUL fall maternity+family mini session. They are just the cutest and I can’t wait to see them as a family of FOUR!
We don’t typically blog much in the fall due to school starting, a steep increase in sessions and lots of fun fall family activities of our own. HOWEVER, when we have a session we loooove with a dear friend (and her perfect little family), we BLOG! We laughed, we chased grasshoppers, we had so much fun! Check out a few favorites from our sunset session with the Carders!
Winter, spring and early summer we shoot mostly families, babies and the occasional corporate or small business session… but once August rolls around, we start working more regularly with soon-to-be graduates. Zayla is the kind of dreamy client that makes me fall in love with senior photography over and again! A gorgeous girl on a beautiful late summer day is bound to give you some amazing images. We had SO much fun exploring the park, chatting it up and having an impromptu dance session on the boat dock! Check out some favorites from our evening sunset senior session…
I’d be remiss to not mention Zayla’s big sis, Milana, another one of my favorite senior clients –> click HERE to take a walk down memory lane!
This may be one of our last documented “summer” sessions of the year, as fall begins to roll in and the colors go from light, bright and airy to deeper, richer tones. This cute little party-of-four has been coming to us as their family has grown over the years and we were excited to celebrate the youngest’s first birthday… and hang on to summer just a little bit longer!
It is bound to be a legendary year, and many 2021 grads are making the best of the chaos while still taking part in “traditional” events like their senior photo session! Michael and I met up at Homestead Metro Park, exploring both the nature and the architecture of the park. Although I’m sure he was there more for his mom… he did a great job of acting like he was having a good time and channeling his “model” charm! Here’s hoping this was the start of an amazing senior year for you, Michael!
The Carrolls have been working with me since they were a family of two several years ago and soon, they’ll be a family of five! Although I love the golden sunset, sometimes littles do best in the AM so we met early and spent a Saturday morning laughing, collecting rocks and exploring the park. It was a fun morning and I’m thankful they let me tag along, soaking in these last few months before their newest bundle arrives! 
This next school year will bring unique adventures for all of us – especially our seniors – as they navigate the ever-changing school landscape, while making the most of their last year of high school. As summer draws to an end, our upcoming class of 2021 graduates will begin to schedule many important milestones… and we can’t wait to kick off senior portrait season!
I’ve been lucky enough to know Leah for a few years now and was SO happy when we scheduled her senior pictures. Not only is she GORGEOUS (I mean, just look at her!), she is also kind, genuine and incredibly entertaining… she makes me laugh and always sees the brighter side of life. Our first attempt didn’t last long as the rain rolled in and our session was shortened, but our second night gave us perfect weather and beautiful light. Although it was nearly impossible to narrow down her gallery and choose my favorites, I finally managed to do so… check out some favorites from Leah’s summer senior session!
One of Leah’s besties joined us too, so of course I had to snap a few of these cuties together…
Looking forward to this school year and fingers crossed, it goes as smooth and “normal” as possible!
