It's not too Early for Senior Portraits Class of 2020

Can you believe the class of 2020 is booking the senior portraits? Ugh, that makes me feel all kinds of old! 2020 sounds like such a futuristic date, but it’s almost here. I’m excited to photograph the seniors graduating next June. It’s not too early to book your session. In fact, here are the available dates for the rest of 2019. Click over there and book your session.

This senior portrait session has my heart. She’s gorgeous, and sweet, and has the best smile ever. I just loved hanging out with her at the beach that night. It was incredibly windy, and her mom was very concerned about her hair being too wind blown and crazy. I absolutely love how these all turned out, and you would never guess we were battling big winds in the process. This is a great example of a time when you should just relax and enjoy the moment. Don’t worry about the details you can’t control.

Class of 2019

Whenever I’m around these two I feel like a terrible parent. You see, my kids seem be complain about each other, and fight constantly. These two twins are always together, even before birth, and yet they get along better than any two people I know. They love being together, laugh at each other’s jokes, and are so genuinely nice to each other I just feel happy to be around them. Why can’t my kids be like that? I wish I knew their secret.

This year they are graduating from high school. It was so fun to spend an evening at the beach with them for their senior portraits, plus one afternoon with the Eagle Scout. I’m excited to see where life takes both of them. I know they will be a huge success.

These are some of my favorite families. Some of them are sending kids off on missions and college, and some are celebrating their child’s very first birthday. All of them are happy and wonderful, and they chose the beach as the location for their session so I could visit my favorite place to hang out. I love families.

Senior Portraits

Senior year - the most exciting, stressful, fun, difficult, and long years of your life. A big chapter of your life is ending, and a new chapter is beginning. Senior year starts with all the anticipation of figuring out where you’ll go next year. The waiting and hoping for college acceptance letters can be agonizing. Last year we did that with my daughter. She struggled with not knowing where she would be going in a few months. Then there was the decision of where she should go. She had two options, and it took her a very very long time to decide.

Senior portraits shouldn’t be stressful. They should be the fun part of your year. It’s a time to show who you are right now in your life. Choose your location, bring 2-3 of your favorite outfits. I encourage you to think outside the box. Don’t just do what everyone does. Think of a location that means a lot to you, or an outfit that has special meaning. Wear the uniform you wear for your sport, or include your favorite animal (as you’ll see below). Don’t be afraid to make it all about you. This is the time in your life when you get to do that! Enjoy it. Give me a call. We can plan together, and as you’ll see below, you can bring your whole family.

My Heart

Even before she was born she has had my whole heart. I remember so clearly looking into her bright blue eyes for the first time. I couldn't believe I, of all people was able to be her mother. I felt like I was the luckiest person alive. I couldn't get enough of her. I loved every sound she made, every expression on her face, and couldn't stand to hear her cry. I worried obsessively about her when I wasn't with her, and rarely wanted to leave her. I fully admit I was a neurotic mom, and I probably still am.

I get teary eyed just thinking about her. When she's unhappy, I am ten times more unhappy. When she hurts I hurt, and when she's happy I am the happiest person on earth. Today I saw her speak in church. The feelings I had watching her up there can not be described. It wasn't the words she was saying, although they were perfect. It was the thought that my baby girl is all grown up now. She's accomplished so much! In almost everything she has chosen the paths I have wished for her. She took the hardest classes, studied countless hours, got well over a 4.0, volunteered her time to help others, has a job, chose amazing friends, helped at home, and has been my joy for eighteen years and counting.

These are some of her senior pictures. I can't possibly choose my favorite because I love seeing her in any image. I hope she always knows how much I love her, and how much I want for her life. Being a mom really is what Elizabeth Stone says, "It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body."

Class of 2018

Senior year is quickly coming to a close. Very soon he'll be a graduate and be off on his own in college. I've known him for 12 years. I've seen him grow up from the cutest little boy ever to this handsome guy. He's multi talented, but my favorite thing about him is that he is the kind of kid that makes everyone around him feel included and important. That is a skill that is rare in high school kids, or people in general. 

I know he'll go on to be a leader, find success in whatever he strives for,  and an all around great person. I'm excited to see it happen. Congratulations Connor!
