Have I mentioned yet that I just LOVE my seniors this year?! I am having so much fun photographing them and sharing their beautiful images with you. Gabrielle's mom contacted me with big plans for her session, and also very sure that she really wanted fall colors. We delayed a couple of weeks from our original date to make sure we got them, and I am SO glad we did! We ended with such a perfect fall backdrop between her locations. Gabrielle is another example of my previously stated fact that performers photograph beautifully. She is a big part of the fine arts program at her school, and it COMPLETELY SHOWS in her facial expressions and variety. I had so much fun with her and her family when we were out together- lots of laughter, lots of creativity, and lots of variety. And this girl really can take a picture! She has been through a lot the last few years, and it was just so fun to get to know her and her story a bit, and to work with her! Meet Gabrielle, class of 2015!!
Love this one!
See what I mean? Gorgeous!
This is one of many favorites! There is such a classic beauty to it!
And what girl doesn't love a good dress that twirls as she spins??
For obvious reasons, I just love this set!
Gabrielle with some very important people in her life!
Gabrielle, I hope you love these- it was so great to meet you and I wish you all the best in your future! Keep singing!! :)
Sometimes, sessions just click, and I have been feeling that a lot this season! The subject, locations, style, all of it just works together. Emily's was one of those sessions- it might have a lot to do with the fact that Emily is a DREAM to photograph. She has such a gentle spirit and it really shows in her photographs. She giggles easily, and while she is VERY shy in her performing at school, and a much more self conscious than she should be, it does NOT show in her images! She was just EASY. Emily is lovely...but there is something about her that is very traditional...a very classic type of beauty, and also a bit of simplicity. Nothing about Emily is overdone- she is natural, kind, and perfect just as she is. I can't wait for you to see these beautiful fall images...meet Emily!!
See what I mean about being a classic beauty??
Such an Emily thing. :)
LOVE this image!
Emily is an avid musician at school, and I loved capturing this side of her.
A couple of the people who love Em dearly!
Emily is also a bookworm...more on that later!
LOVE THIS!
This set might be one of my favorites...ever! Some could say the glitter is overdone...but I work hard to craft one essential truth in my students (well, many)...and one of them is "You can NEVER have too much glitter!".
Emily...just STUNNING! Seriously!!!
I end with one of my favorite senior images of the year...I just adore Em's expression, and it says so much about her! And...I adore the glitter remnants, making a girl who already shines immensely sparkle just a little bit more!
