Something new for me, SENIORS!!

I have decided to start branching out! With wedding season coming ot a bit of a close and things slowing down, I have decided to step out into a new place for me. I am going to start shooting seniors! These are my first two sessions this year and I had so much fun shooting them!! Over the next weeks I will be adding galleries to my website to make it more "senior friendly." While I have shot a lot of seniors over the years, I have only advertised weddings, and that is what I am about to change. I really have a ton of fun shooting teenagers and would love to do it more often!

Shelby was so cute and shy and so sweet! It took a bit to get her to relax, but she did awesome and I love the pics we ended up with. She has these amazing intense eyes! So pretty!

Meredith was a hoot! She was sassy and fun! While she is a city gal, she wanted something more country so we went out to the middle of nowhere to shoot her. It was a blast and she is beautiful!

Best Friends Forever

I had the priveledge of shooting 3 incredible gals this weekend. Grace just turned 11, and for her birthday her mother gave her a photoshoot with me! So I took off with Grace and her two best friends downtown and had a super fun shoot with them. They were super awesome, they coordinated perfectly! (much better than most adults I might add! hehe)
They had sas and priss and attitude, very "Charlie's Angels." I love it!

Kevin and Erin

Kevin and Erin had the coolest wedding at Kinnakeet Shores Beach Club . It was a full day with tons of family and friends. They had a sandcastle contest for the kids and they were so impressive!! Half way through the reception all of the kids were in the pool and they managed to push Kevin in too! By the end of the night the entire wedding pary was in the pool, clothes and all! It was so much fun and it was a gorgeous ceremony!

Junior and Natlie in NYC

I have had the wonderful privilege of going to New York for an engagment shoot! Natalie is from Hot Springs and Junior is from New York, and since they are getting married here in Arkansas we are doing their engagements and bridals in New York. Lucky for me! YAY!! I had SO MUCH fun in New York, these guys were awesome and showed me around. I could so live in that city!! I heart NYC!! :)

Ironically, we primarily shot in Central Park most of the time, I know I go to NY and shoot in the park..hehe...BUT it rained the day we were going to do the city shots, but we got a couple. And it's okay, cause I'm going back in the spring for her bridals and can do some more then! :)
