Dakota {High School Senior Portraits}

I have to say it feels GREAT to be doing a few photo ses­sions again! I posted a few months ago about my daugh­ter Emily and her bat­tle with leukemia. I’ll post more about that later but I am ecsta­tic to report that she has been in remis­sion since May!

I’ve been pho­tograph­ing here and there over the past few months. I recently had the plea­sure of pho­tograph­ing Dakota — a 2013 high school senior. He likes the out­doors so we headed to Black Moshan­non State Park for his pho­tos. Here is a sneak peek of the session!

High School Senior Announcements & Invitations

I love cre­at­ing cards and announce­ments for my clients.  I think this is one of my favorite senior invi­ta­tions ever!  Cards and announce­ments can be ordered with dif­fer­ent shapes.  They can be ornate shaped (such as the one below), square, cir­cle, scal­loped, etc.  Dif­fer­ent paper tex­tures are also avail­able.  My favorite card sea­son is quickly com­ing up…Christmas!  I’ll be announc­ing mini ses­sions that include Christ­mas cards soon!

Rachael {West Branch High School Senior Photos}

The day I took Rachael’s senior pho­tos was a pretty dreary day. It had rained early that morn­ing and the dark, heavy clouds kept hang­ing around through late morn­ing. I was wor­ried it would start rain­ing any minute but luck­ily the rain held off until the last 10 min­utes of the shoot! Cloudy days are a great time to pho­to­graph because I don’t have to deal with the harsh sun which causes lots of squint­ing and strange shad­ows! We had a beau­ti­ful loca­tion for pho­tos right near Rachael’s home! She was a nat­ural in front of the camera…I’m hav­ing a hard time choos­ing my favorite pho­tos from the day! Here is a peek:

Andrew | {Philipsburg-Osceola High School Senior Photography}

Andrew and his mom Amy wanted senior pho­tos where “Andrew looked like Andrew”.  They didn’t want stiff pos­ing but wanted some­thing that looked more nat­ural.  I didn’t give Andrew much direc­tion other than just telling him to stand as he nor­mally would.  He was a nat­ural in front of the cam­era!  We had a fun time and Andrew and Amy were very pleased with the pho­tos (yay!).  Amy ordered a large can­vas print of the first photo shown below and it looked fantastic…she cried when she saw it.  I know I did my job if mom’s cry when they see their pho­tos!  Thank you for ask­ing me to take your senior photos!

Chelsea = Gorgeous! | {High School Senior Photography}

Here are a few pho­tos of the GORGEOUS Chelsea from Philipsburg-Osceola High School!  We took these in the evening and the light was just per­fect!  I LOVE these!  The mid­dle photo would look stun­ning as a large can­vas print!

Last 2010 High School Senior (I think!)

As of now, this was my last sched­uled 2010 senior ses­sion.  I’m already sched­ul­ing 2011 seniors for this sum­mer.  I have a lot of great ideas I want to try out — I can’t wait!

Senior photo session and something new…

These are pho­tos of Jayme — a high school senior. Jayme was fun to work with and I think her pho­tos turned out fan­tas­tic! I hope she likes them as much as I do. I’m pair­ing them with some­thing new.…Wallet Frames. These frames are avail­able for wal­let sized prints only and are great for senior photos!
