| Parrott Girls | Headshots | Decatur IL Studio Session |

I’m excited today to show off these two beautiful sisters. Their momma contacted me to get a session booked quickly as they both were home on spring break and Victoria needed some updated professional portraits as she’ll be graduating soon and going on to get her law degree. She currently needed some updated images for her LinkedIn profile as she’ll be working to get internships and such in the coming years. And it was the perfect chance to get some headshots of her younger sister while we were at it too. We were one gal short as their other sister’s spring break didn’t match up so she was still away at school but I hope to get to meet her for family portraits soon.

| Violet | Pageant Headshots |

Today I get to share a recent session with the lovely Violet! If you’ve been around the blog recently you’ve seen we’ve been busy with professional headshots for some upcoming graduates at Richland Community College and the Decatur professional community and even the senior class at Warrensburg-Latham High School. Well, another really fun headshot session I get to do every so often are pageant headshots (like these last fall with Rebekah).

Ms. Violet needed some updated images for a pageant coming up this summer so we brought her into the studio for our quick and simple 15-minute headshot session. My favorite part about these sessions is that they are an all-inclusive one hour appointment. Of course, we start with a quick phone consult so we can plan outfits/backdrops/hair & makeup, etc and then the day of the session we have 15 minutes of camera time (which usually allows for 1-2 outfits!) and then in just a few minutes we’re viewing those images on our 106″ projection screen to select your favorites and design your order! And just like that, you’re work is done and I get to work editing and artworking your selections.

With our and our kiddos busy schedules this is the perfect way to get a quick updated portrait all in one day!

It’s often easy to put off scheduling an updated portrait for yourself. Most people aren’t fold of time in front of the camera, especially solo, but it’s my job to make you feel comfortable and to create images that show off who you are. We make these sessions quick and simple with immediate viewing and selection of your images. Plus, in our off-season January – March we offer on-location executive portrait events like this for a great rate to create your images for your entire office staff at your office!

| Darcy | Warrensburg-Latham High School Senior 2018 |

Check out Darcy’s senior session! Don’t you just love her hair, the braids were such a fun touch. Darcy’s a senior at Warrensburg-Latham high school and we’re just a couple months away from the big graduation day for all you class of 2018 seniors.

Darcy, like a lot of our seniors, chose to mix it up with her session locations to get a bit of that great urban grunge texture along with the beautiful wild natural look of our conservation areas. And I just loved her style. It’s so eclectic we went from ripped jeans and leather jacket to school house prep to soft natural dresses to a bold pop of red at the end!
