| Cassidy | Central A & M High School Class of 2019 Senior Portrait Model |

The lovely Ms. Cassidy’s time in the spotlight on the blog has arrived. She’s pretty used to the spotlight being quite the accomplished pageant gal. She was so much fun to photograph and we kicked things off before her senior session with a short pageant session for her Miss Teen of Illinois title… you might remember it (see it HERE).

We incorporated a few throwbacks into her session not only to her childhood (see the images of her as an adorable pigtail clad kiddo below) but also a throwback to her mother’s senior portraits. Her mom had a similar image to the one below taken on a purple backdrop so as a little surprise for her Cassidy wanted to do one image to recreate that.

We packed SO much into Cassidy’s session that we were racing the sunlight by this time of the evening and believe it or not it was nearly dark by this time so wanting to finish in the water and with the paint I got back in touch with my inner artist to throw some body paint all over while we both laughed. It was a pretty fun end to a great session for sure!

I’ve had so much fun with the class of 2019 and am so excited for what’s in store with the class of 2020/21 (especially with the first shoots at the NEW studio!). 2020/21 grads you can apply NOW to be a senior model at www.sjanephotoraphy.com!

| Abigail | Warrensburg-Latham High School Senior Portraits | Class of 2019 |

Today I get to share the lovely Ms. Abigail with you all. We had a beautiful day at Allerton for her session (doesn’t that sunshine look inviting this week!?!?) and she was so great in front of the camera, aren’t her blue eyes just stunning?!?! Her and her mom were such a pleasure to work with and I’m so glad they loved so many of her images.

One of my favorite parts about senior gal sessions is that most ladies bring their moms along for the experience (many of our senior guys do too!). It always warms my heart seeing these senior’s mommas help with this big milestone session and I remember my momma coming along for my senior experience too. I can still remember sitting down with mom for the first meeting with my senior photographer and being so excited that I was going to have him create my portraits (Childress Portrait Design was the go to place in my home town for senior portraits!).

| Jodie | Class of 2019 Senior Portraits | Decatur IL |

I’m BACK! Sorry for the quiet month around the blog. I have a few sessions we’re keeping under wraps until Christmas cards hit mailboxes soon and I’ve been so busy OUT on sessions with these beautiful people that I haven’t had a chance to stop in here to share what we’ve been working on. But as the COLD weather moves in it’s just about time for me to hibernate and work on all these images so that means it’s time to share again, starting today with the lovely Jodie!

With a super funky fall this year Jodie’s October session was somehow almost all green (and even warm enough for us to play in the water… can you believe it and now there’s SNOW on the ground!!!). We did find one loan golden tree but had plenty of other gorgeous options including some pretty ivy and sunkissed golden field. But the real star of the show here is Jodie herself and I’m most excited about the art piece her and her momma decided to feature in their home (she was negotiating kicking out one of dad’s nature images to claim the biggest wall for herself – love it! But in the end I think they let his portrait stay and found the perfect home for her 4 image collage).

Class of 2019 we still have spring sessions open for you (or call us ASAP to get on our snow call list for truly unique senior portraits if you’re willing to brave the cold).

| Hannah | Second Senior Session | Decatur IL Senior Photographer |

I just finished up Hannah’s full 60-page album design and I LOVE it! This design pushed me to get creative and stay creative to make each design unique on it’s own yet coordinate with all the others.

One thing that I love that Hannah did from her session is create a feature image for her to take with her to college (in her college gear – see those images and her full first session here), plus we created two wall collages for her to keep here at home. I love this because senior images are a really fun transition between your childhood chapter and your adult chapter so I like that she left some behind for her (and mom) to enjoy at home and took some with her to have a piece of her past there too.

I posted about the below images a while back on our facebook page. I realized I’ve talked up sunset sessions a lot and had some clients concerned their images would be ‘less-than’ if we didn’t have a sunset session open for them. That is SO not the case! Hannah’s session started 3 HOURS before sunset, but I chose a location I knew had a bit of an early sunset look since it’s very wooded and sort of in a little valley and even hours before sunset we can create looks like this with the right location and lighting. No matter what time of day your session is, it’s always my job to make your images ones you will LOVE so don’t you worry if it’s sunrise, sunset or noon I will do just that!
