Senior Style ~ Brianna

It has been awhile since I've posted a session, so here's a fun one I want to share!  I did a fair amount of seniors last summer and fall (9), and some attended the school where I teach.  But THIS senior, well, she not only attended my school, but I taught for years with her amazing mom and we had playgroups together!  I've known Brianna since she was two, and here she is, all grown up and so gorgeous!  It was fun to hang out with her again and learn what she's been up to!  She is a super busy senior, involved in Show Choir, basketball, cheerleading, track, and lots more.  We had two sessions to try to reflect her many activities and her fun sense of style. 

Enjoy this bit of warmth on these cold winter days.  










This white dress and meadow of wildflowers was perfect for lighting of the setting sun.  I can't wait for spring and summer to use this setting again.  Don't you just love her cute boots and stylish look?








Our second session started in the bleachers with her cheer uniform and letter jacket.  I love the pop of red.  I told you she was busy - check out those jerseys below!





To end the evening, we went to the river.  The aqua color and the long flow of her dress made a perfect match for the willow trees.  It was so fun to get a little wet to get some amazing shots of this beautiful and special girl.  



I look forward to following more of your adventures, Brianna.  I know you'll go far.

Senior sessions for this spring and summer are coming up fast.  If you want to book an outdoor session (or two) with me, just let me know!  My email is at the top of the blog, or you can message me through the link to Facebook.

Senior Style ~ Ally

We had beautiful sunshine the first morning of our senior sessions with Ally.  The sun was in her hair,  and the temps were just right for spending time at Palmer Park and downtown Janesville.  I typically do my sessions in the evenings, and this was my first in the morning this summer, so I had some new locations in mind since the lighting is different.  We had a great time!








 Downtown offers some great lines and textures, and I knew her funky denim and Converse shoes would work perfectly for this location! Ally has great style, and it was fun to capture her laughter throughout the session.










Our second morning featured very different weather!  We met at Riverside Park, and the wind was really blowing -- not to mention the temperatures felt like a chilly fall morning.  I am amazed that we captured what we did, because many times her hair was blowing everywhere!  The willows and Devil's Staircase at the park offered such serene views, which paired well with her simple style that day.





Next we went to a terrific textured warehouse, and an ivy covered wall, and the neatest HOT PINK doors and windows to really pop with her black and white stripes.  Thanks, Ally, for trying these new locations with me that day!  It was super fun!  I hope you have a wonderful senior year.  I just know you have a bright future ahead of you!
