I love capturing a senior’s unique personality and interests.   I shoot on-location, and have done shoots all throughout the area (and beyond!).  However, I am also eager to try new locations and ideas.  I am always thrilled when I senior wants to shoot somewhere I never shot before:

Or wants to incorporate one of their favorite hobbies!

Because all seniors are so different, I offer a few different types of senior sessions.

Standard Senior Sessions

This is my most popular session.  The standard session is a 1 – 3 hour on location session.  You can choose a few different locations and multiple outfit changes.   I choose and edit the best images of the session and upload them to a password protected gallery where you can view and share the photos and order your prints and other products.

Standard sessions are just so much fun.  It always takes a little while for the senior to get comfortable being the center of attention and to start feeling less awkward and more like America’s Next Top Model.   By being very generous in the amount of time I spend during the portrait session, I find that once the awkwardness passes, and the senior relaxes, that is when the truly amazing images happen!   And I have often been told, at the end of the session  – “That was SO much fun!!!”.

BFF Senior Session

BFF sessions are, like my standard session, a 1 – 3 hour on-location session that can include a few different locations and multiple outfit changes.  However, A BFF session is a session that you share with, obviously, your BFF!  I have done these sessions with best friends and even a few twins!  And we always have a blast!

Each senior takes turns getting their individual portraits.  I will also take some photos together.  But the main purpose of the BFF session is to allow the seniors to enjoy their senior session with their best friend.  And I find that BFF sessions are just a bit more relaxed!

Each senior gets their own individual, password protected gallery of images.  Since it is a shared session, each senior’s gallery has a few less images to choose from, but I find that, for most, it is still more than enough!

Simple Senior Session

Lastly, I offer a “simple” senior session.   This is a great and economical session for a senior who may just not be interested in a full session.  A simple session is a 30 minute session that must be conducted within the zip code 16301.   But if you are a senior who lives outside the area, you are welcome to travel in!  There are a whole host of location options within this area that I am sure will meet any senior’s needs!

The senior gets an online, password protected gallery, of about 10 – 15 images to choose from.   Just enough to choose your yearbook image and give mom a few portraits to display!

I am so looking forward to meeting all the 2012 seniors!!!!  And please CONTACT ME with any questions or to schedule your senior session!!!!

Until next time!!!!

Over a month ago, I had the pleasure of getting portraits for the “E” family kids. Well, even though they are “technically” kids, they are kids that are pretty grown up! We met at a local park on a gorgeous late summer afternoon. It was a bit hot, but very pretty!!

Danielle was so sweet and pretty and enjoyed it all. Her brother, Mitchell? Well, as a young teen boy, he pretty much would prefer to do anything else in the word rather than sit next to his sister and smile for the camera. I didn’t mind – it was completely understandable and we still got a lot of really nice photos!

I mean – look how cute they are!!

We got a couple good photos of just Mitchell -

And we got a LOT of gorgeous photos of Danielle -

And one more of the two of them!

Thank you all so much!!!!

It was sunny, warm and absolutely perfect in every way!!!!

And, to make things even more perfect, I couldn’t have asked for more photogenic “kids”. Although this “kid” is quickly becoming a beautiful little lady.

And her little brother? Well, he may not have been entirely thrilled about the whole photo thing (what boy his age is??), but he was very sweet and took some very good photos!!!

I mean, look at these kids! They made my job of getting nice photos for their parents incredibly easy!!!!

And, of course, we wanted to get photos of brother and sister together:

And, of course, they had their moments of acting like any typical brother and sister!

Lastly, we got just a couple shots of the kids with some close friends who just happen to be my very own niece and nephew (whose shoot you may remember from a few months ago)!

Thank you all so much!!!
