| Bailee | Senior Session Take 2 | Decatur IL |

Remember Bailee?!? This beautiful Sullivan high school senior had the first part of her session back in the summer but we knew we wanted to include her softball uniform and shoot some on the field at school so just a few weeks ago we finished up the second half of her session and it was perfect.

Despite all the rain we’ve had for what feels like the past month we actually did have a lovely day for her session and a beautiful sunset. I’m excited to finish up her album with these latest images with graduation right around the corner.

We’re now booking summer/fall 2017 for both 2017 and 2018 seniors (it’s never too late 2017 seniors if you didn’t have the epic senior portait experience you’d hoped for, call we’ll create it for you!).

| Abby S | LSA Senior Model Class of 2017 | Decatur IL |

I’m so glad the time has come to show off and share Abby’s full senior portrait experience with you! The lovely Ms. Abby is a senior at LSA high school here in Decatur and she was one of our class of 2017 senior models. That means that her portrait experience with us started small, with a quick 5 minute debut session here in the studio….

and it grew and grew…. That individual quick session was followed by our model session event in the beautiful (but WINDY) spring weather at Ryder’s Garden center. The yellow blooms were perfect with her golden blond hair and I love the Greek goddess look that the floral crown by The Secret Garden gave her! ryder's garden center, mt. zion il garden center, senior photos, senior photographer, senior portraits, high school seniors, siblings, outdoor portraits, outside, sun flare, sunshine, forest, trees, decatur il photographer, photographer, photography studio, lsa, lsa seniors, spring flowers, yellow flowers

After those two model sessions, which were really about creating fun looks I loved, it was time for HER senior sessions which are all about creating looks that SHE loves. We hopped back in the studio for a few more looks in the early spring but the real magic happened in the summer when we hit the town…

We started downtown before hitting some backroads in search of something fresh and new and we found it. A perfect little one-lane-gravel road where we had a great sunset and some wild tall weeds! I love so many of Abby’s portraits and am so glad that she did too.

Don’t forget you can still apply for your chance to be a class of 2018 senior model for a full year portrait experience just like this! Model applications are accepted from now until March 31st so don’t wait!

And be sure to head over to Abby’s Facebook Album to give her some likes/comments.

It’s time to show off Hannah’s senior portraits! We had some pretty stellar ivy (some still green and some already changing for the fall) for Hannah’s session and this girl rocked every pose. What made Hannah’s session the most fun for me was her excitement.. I’m not sure who had more fun on session, her or me, but it was a blast.

After exploring a bit of the urban areas for some great texture and the ivy we popped into the studio to create a few classic looks for her too, including a few on some of my absolute favorite BoxDropsbySJP backdrops too!

Big thanks to Katie at Mint Salon too for another beautiful hair/makeup job! Be sure to pop over to Hannah’s Facebook Album to give her some love with your likes/comments.

| Ella | Maroa-Forsyth High School | Senior Portraits | Class of 2017 |

It’s time to show off Ella’s senior portraits today! Ella is a Maroa-Forsyth High School senior this year and she was so much fun to photograph. We spent some time in the studio here then headed out to Lake Decatur before making our way to the gym and football field for a few to showcase her cheer.

Who else is missing beautiful warm sunny weather like this?!?! I’m so ready to get back out and work in some warm spring weather (it’s coming SOON, right?!?!).

I’m really excited about her album design and love the modern element of the diamond which worked perfectly to add a little flare to her designs.
