If you were to ask me what the ingredients to a “perfect session” would be, I would say: perfect weather, beautiful background and colors, a client with their own amazing sense of style and one who can relax in front of the camera. In other words, I would describe Sienna’s High School Senior Session. This was one of those sessions where I felt like we were creating true art. She is such a sweet and beautiful girl and I wish her so much success in the future.
This session was full of a lot of colored powder, a little photoshop work and tons of fun! When Aniayah and her mom reached out to me about scheduling a session, they mentioned they really wanted to do one with colored powder. I was excited because I have always wanted to try this, but also slightly apprehensive because I wasn’t sure about the logistics of where and how to pull it off. We decided on the studio so I brought some plastic tarps and covered everything I could. It was definitely a learning experience and we learned that there is no such thing as too much powder and also that it should probably be done outdoors or in some type of garage/outbuilding but we got some fun images and had a great time!
I’m a lucky photographer. We are doing a photo session for every season of this pretty girl’s senior year. I am thankful for this privilege not only because she is a dream to photograph, but also because she’s pretty special to our family. It is bittersweet knowing she’s off to college next year and we won’t see her as often, but I can’t wait to watch her shine at MIZZOU and watch her compete on their gymnastics team!
What do you give a teen that already has everything? A photo shoot and fun day with her besties! The girls and I ALL had so much fun doing this shoot and showing off how beautiful and talented they are. And I always love getting to combine spending time with my best girl and photography! It was also fun to get back to Unity Village for a shoot! Since they started requiring $100 permits for professional photos sessions, I don’t have too many clients that wanna add that expense to their session but this was pleasure instead of business so no permit needed! 🙂
How lucky am I when I arrive to a session full of beautiful ladies? I absolutely love that Sadie wanted to do this session with her daughter and step-daughter as a gift to her husband. I can’t even imagine how much he loved this. It was such a fun little mini session at Lake Jacomo and turned out gorgeous.
