Fun. Modern. Real.

Justine 2012!

These are just a few of my favorites from Justine’s session. I was so excited to take her pictures. The wind was so bad our eyes were watering most of the time. Not to mention how freezing it was. And she was in a dress most of her session! The sun was so harsh for a little while too. But despite all of that we got some amazing images. I was beyond happy with how they turned out. She had some fun ideas and was willing to do almost anything. Oh, and not to mention she LOVED the felt mustache I made. Which happened to be my first try ever. I had a lot of fun. Have a great rest of your senior year!

Chris + Holly Engaged!

When Holly asked me to take her engagement pictures I was SO excited! These are just a few of my favorite images. I’ve known Holly ever since I was younger. She’s a senior in High School and Chris is in the Marines. Their shoot was so laid back and fun. We had a few minor issues during the day but they laughed it off and we got some awesome shots. They are such a fun couple and were up for anything. I’m so happy for you guys. Congratulations! :)

The Wards Sneak Peak!

Despite the freezing cold, we managed to get some awesome shots. Jean and Rick are so funny. And their daughter (a long time friend of mine), Danielle was crazy as always. Love this family! :)

Senior sneak peak!

I had so much fun photographing this lovely senior. We started her session off outside. On the way to one of our locations I spotted a cute little house that had flowers and plants and random knick knacks everywhere. We stopped and asked the people that lived there if we could take a few pictures on his porch. He was surprised we would want to. I was so happy with the results! After our last outdoor location (which I happened to get poison on my legs at), we headed to our indoor spot. She had such cute outfits the whole day so I was excited to see what she had lined up. We ended the session with some night time portraits outside which were awesome. Good luck in your senior year Maddy!

Client packaging!

I was so excited when Emileas print order came in today. I had been patiently waiting for two days. I LOVE getting the orders, but I was afraid to open them at first. I was so relieved when I saw them. They were absolutely amazing. So much better than I expected. The picture above is just my temporary client packaging until all of my materials get here! I have little stickers with my logo that I put in the bottom corner on the back of all the prints. I’m so in love with these prints. The largest one was a metallic finish which looked awesome. I love love LOVE the sizes too!

Trashy

Megan and I were inspired by a few pictures of trash bags made into dresses. We decided to take a shot at creating our own. Here’s a few of my favorites!
