Technically, this was her senior portrait session and her beau was just "the help." But seriously, would you pass up the chance to capture this sweetness? I think not.
Thanks, T, for being such an awesome help at the session and for being such a good sport!
She has a smile that beams straight from her heart and a personality that simply can't be contained. We had so much fun darting from here to there exploring around downtown. I love the vintage inspiration in her clothing.
We had to book it to catch the sunset (I tend to get distracted by pretty buildings and great clothes), but we made it...barely. A special thanks to her grandmother for trekking out into the field with us to help hold the light, in spite of the very real threat of fire ants (and I have the bites to prove it).

As if the beautiful girl and her deer weren't enough, then they brought out the giant pinwheels, and the old tractor equipment, *and* horses, too????!!! The whole time I seriously thought I had died and gone to Pinkle Toes heaven. This session was just pure magic and I'm so thankful to have met this family! (Congrats to them on Pic of the Month, too!)
So far, she's been the only senior who chose to get up before sunrise to take her senior pictures. And let me tell you, I think we're both glad she did. Can you even believe this beautiful light and check out her wardrobe choices?! Well done!
She was the sweetest person in the world to work with and I had so much fun. Her beau even showed up to help out. Little did he know he'd be dragged into the photo session, too ;-) Here he his helping me take a test shot for my OCF:
In fact, those two were so darned cute together, I ended up practically doing a whole other mini session just for them. Those pics to come in part 2!
This is what she said about her vision for her senior pictures:
"I don't know what regular senior portraits look like, but I want mine to be full of laughter and look like I'm having fun. Not sitting by a tree with my letter jacket on, like everyone else :P"
Now that made my day and I couldn't wait for her session. She did not disappoint. Love her hair (I so wish I could pull that off) and loved the sparkle of her eyes. Indeed, I think she looks like she's having fun. I know I was.
