Heather and Blair are the stars on the blog today! These two are the sweetest and their wedding day was full to bursting with love and family and fun. We kicked off the day at the day getting ready at their homes (where even Heather’s dog got fancied up for the special occasion).

This was my first wedding at First General Baptist Church and I have to say I’m a big fan especially with it being just walking distance to the beautiful Garden Path which we made our first stop after finishing formals inside! And Heather and Blair’s reception location was just as beautiful so we spent some time around sunset on the Hickory Point Golf Course grounds.

Their album is currently being hand-crafted in Italy and I cannot wait to see it in-person so soon!

| Jessica | Senior Class of 2018 | Decatur IL |

Today I get to share some of Jessica’s favorite images from her senior session with you! We had a chilly chilly day out at Allerton for her session but, of course, that park is beautiful year round and we had the chance to hide from the cold for just a bit in the greenhouse.

Jessica grew up camping at the 4H campground at Allerton so we were sure to work in that part of the park to her session as well and I’m most excited about the wall collage they selected (below) to show off their favorites!

| 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!

And LOOK!!! How adorable is her little fur baby?!?

We finished up the session working in one of her favorite things, her book collection (I don’t think we event got all of them out for these image!).

| Peyton | Senior Portraits 2018 | Decatur, IL |

I’m excited to share Peyton’s session with you today! I had so much fun on her session with her momma and adorable little sister who came along for the fun. We had a late fall session and were lucky enough to find a pocket of great colored leaves remaining. But before we could get to all that beautiful fall color we started her session downtown for a bit more urban look which I LOVED for her amazing sequin dress. senior portraits decatur il sarah jane photography , decatur il, best photographers, senior photographer, senior portraits, senior photos, photographer, photography, studio, central illinois, illinois, high school seniors

| Alex | Maroa-Forsyth High School Senior 2018 |

Check out Alex’s senior session(s)! I always love working to feature what my clients love and fitting their hobbies and collections into their session. Well when I mentioned making sure to bring a few pairs of shoes for the session both Alex and his momma laughed that finding a ‘few’ wouldn’t be a problem and they were definitely right so we worked in his 20+ pairs of shoes into his session. The hardest part was definitely picking which ones for him to wear with each outfit #somanychoices!

And being multi-talented we found a way to feature his sports, academics and drum into the session even having a little fun with him drumming with water.
