| Brittney | Warrensburg-Latham High School | Class of 2020 Senior Portraits |

Hey again! Today, I got to talk to a group of young future CEOs (high school entrepreneurship co-op came to the studio today!) and while showing them one of my amazing time management tools (go CoSchedule whoopwhoop) and we talked about how it helps me stay on top of my blog even during the busiest times of the year…. THEN we talked about how even with all the best tools you’ll sometimes be failing in one aspect of your business. Like me not blogging for the past month, oops!

Oh well, I’m back in the saddle again here and let me tell you I have so much to share with you starting today with the amazingly talented Brittney of Warrensburg-Latham High School. I believe she has the most ever metals we’ve done for the metal pose and she survived it like a true champion (holding those metals is NOT easy even for a minute).

I hope you enjoy everything we created for her in the studio, around town and at the high school. She was a joy to photograph and I’m in love with her canvas collage and album design too.

I love it when seniors incorporate their sports, interests, hobbies, friends, pets, etc into their session…. these images are about WHO you are, not just what you look like. They are about who/what you love right now, at this moment in time. It will change, of course, but that’s why we are creating these images now. When you’re on the cusp of that major change from a child into an adult. If you’d like us to help you create, not just take, your senior portraits get in touch, we’d love to work with you!

I’m excited to show you some favorites from another family session this week! I got to meet these guys for the first time at their recent Limited Edition session day and I have to say these boys were some of the most photogenic I’ve ever had on session.

This might shock you, but not every guy (no matter their age) I have on session wants to be there. It’s not always their favorite way to spend their time, but you’d have never guessed that with these boys. They were full of great smiles and personality and just so much fun to work with and I so hope to have the chance to work with this gorgeous family again in the future.

Today I get to share this beautiful family with you. I finished up their album design this week (check out the time lapse video of that below!) so their stunning metal wall collage and custom album will be headed home with them soon.

I loved giving each kiddo their own time in the spotlight on session. Plus, giving all three siblings a chance to snuggle up and how adorable is that!?!?

I love that the Miller’s chose our modern metal portraits for their wall. They will make these colors sing and mimic the backlit screens we spend our days looking at so have a bold rich look that is unique to our metal/glass options.

I’m excited to share Mahala’s senior session with you all today! I met her family a few years ago when her sister Kayle was one of our senior models. And then I got to photograph her for the first time at their family session that year. This beautiful family moved to sunny Florida (#jealous) so getting the chance to create again for them wasn’t on my radar making Alicia’s message about planning Mahala’s session such a wonderful surprise.

We had a small window of time to work with while they were in the state, but that was no problem (thank goodness weather worked out for us!). It was so much fun to hang out with Mahala AND her sis and momma joined us on session too so I got to hang with them all for a bit! Now, her canvases and album are all being carefully printed and will be in the mail on their way to Florida in the next few days so it’s time to share the whole thing with you guys too!

Alleson’s senior album design is complete and headed off to be beautifully printed this week so now I get to share it all with you guys here. We explored a bit further down an alley downtown than I have wandered in the past and were rewarded with a few gorgeous brick walls and beautiful light!

Then for a little variety we headed out to a wild nature location that didn’t disappoint either… sunset, tall grasses and even some flowers. Alleson has been a really fun part of our model team this year. I just love photographing her with her absolutely stunning blue eyes and vibrant smile. I hope you love her images as much as I do. <3
