| Trinity | Class of 2018 High School Senior Portraits | Decatur, IL |

Today I get to share the lovely Trinity with you today. Not only did we give Trinity her time in the spotlight for her session but we also included her sister Tiara (one of our past seniors too) as a big part of her portraits. These girls are so fun and I love their sisterly relationship, we even facetimed in Tiara from college to help choose the wall portrait of the two of them!

It’s always such an honor when I’ve photographed one senior in a family to have their younger siblings come back to choose me to create their images as well. Of course, in some ways we like to keep things coordinated so that we can create wall art that fits perfectly with what we’ve created for the older sibling, BUT we also want to give each senior/sibling their own unique session. While we chose studio (and a specific look to match Tiara’s portrait as a throwback to their momma’s senior portrait), and nature and urban locations for both girls we mixed up and used each location uniquely so nothing felt ‘the same’ about the girls’ sessions.

Check out some of our favorites from Trinity’s session including her full album design below and be sure to head over to our facebook page and IG to see more and give her some love with your likes/comments.

| Kenzie | Central A & M High School Senior Model Portraits | Class of 2018 |

Are you ready to see Kenzie’s whole senior portrait experience today?!?! Kenzie was a great part of our class of 2018 senior model team. She was so fun to work with and is the sweetest! First a few from her model pop up sessions… I loved her ‘little black dress’ look for our downtown group session (aren’t those dress sleeves cute!). And Kenzie also made it to our fair session but not until just after dark so she got some unique firework images.

Be sure to check out her BFF session images too! We combined her and Alaina’s session with all their friends and it was a blast. Then it was time for her senior sessions. Our first session, despite 0% chance of rain even as I drove to location got a little wet! We started downtown and not long after kicking off the session were caught in a random downpour! Luckily, we were able to keep to the overhangs on buildings and the transfer house for the most part and still create the images we wanted before heading inside to the studio.

On her next session day I ventured a bit closer to her down in Shelbyville. I absolutely love getting down there to use locations I don’t get to use all the time including this beautiful garden area and Shelbyville lake. We had a gorgeous day for her session complete with lovely sunset!

Last, but not least, we finished up her urban session (since our first was cut a bit short by rain) with a bit more grungy look at one of my favorite Decatur locations. Be sure to give Kenzie some love over on our facebook page where you can see more of her session and let her know what you think!

| Jasmyn | Mt. Zion Senior Model 2018 |

It’s Jasmyn’s day in the spotlight on the blog today! I have had so much fun creating her images over the past year. We did a little bit of everything for Jasmyn’s sessions… a few downtown Decatur, some in-studio of course and then we ventured to Fort Daniel, Allerton and a friend’s farm to create a variety of nature looks complete with TWO sunsets (the first a bit cloudy).

Take a look at everything we created for Jasmyn! I can’t wait to have her album finished soon with all these images.

| Evan | Warrensburg-Latham High School Senior Portraits | Class of 2018 |

Today I get to show off Evan’s senior portraits along with his album design! Albums are by far one of my favorite products since we get to show off so many of your favorite images in one place. Plus, the custom-designs make them extra fun for me to create.

For Evan’s session we spent a little time in studio to create some classic looks including his yearbook portrait and then we headed to a few places downtown to create both some urban looks and found a bit of nature as well!
