Evangeline is my last senior rep this year…and we got a bit of a late start but she’s special to me and I’m so excited to work with her.  (Wow! That’s what we call a run-on sentence, but this is my blog so I’ll break the rules if I want!) Miss E was a little nervous about stepping in front of the camera which is actually completely normal!  Almost everyone is nervous as we get started because no one knows what  to expect…and none of my clients thus far have been trained models.  My job is to make you LOOK like you could model.  I have spent a LOT of time in the last year or so working on posing and studying what makes a good pose and how to flatter anyone’s body size and shape.  So, mostly you just have to trust me when you come in for your sitting…and understand that sometimes awkward looks elegant!

Evangeline has a natural beauty…and is musically gifted.  You should hear her play guitar and sing…all I’ve got to say is Taylor Swift has nothing on Evangeline.  I don’t know how she’s going to get there or when, but I fully believe we will see Miss E standing on a stage, sold out to a full arena someday!!  And I will be selling these images to whichever magazine wants them when that day comes…haha, just kidding, Van!  (I’ll only sell to the one with the deepest pockets!)

Just as we were getting ready to call it a day, a GORGEOUS rainbow peaked out from the clouds so I made Van stand on the highway to get this shot!  (Remember the part I said about trusting me?)

Miss Shaelyn has been so special to our family over the last several years…and then she was an awesome senior rep for me last year.  It’s so hard to believe this little girl I first met when I was teaching her swimming lessons 10 years ago is ready to head off to college.  I had to miss her actual graduation because it was the same day as my brother’s graduation from KU…and the whole family was in town and wanting family pictures.  They were so awesome and flexible with me after I realized the two graduations would fall on the same day…we ended up with a cool, overcast morning with rain threatening but it held off for us to get some gorgeous images in my in-laws backyard.  I love shooting back there under a canopy of trees with beautiful flowers around every corner…doesn’t sound like southwest Kansas does it?

Miss Kayla is going to be a senior at South Gray this year…she came to see me last Tuesday just before we left for vacation. I am just now getting a peek myself at what we were able to capture! Here are just a few from her awesome session. Good luck with your senior year Kayla!

We did the first of two mini sessions for this gorgeous senior on Saturday night.  She has agreed to be a rep for me, and I couldn’t be more excited!  She’s fun, lots of energy, up for anything…and the camera loved her!  Once again, we were racing against the weather…we started about 7 p.m. in town hoping to get some good sunset images with the horse afterwards.  Around 7:45 I realized the light was getting away from us as the huge storm clouds were rolling in.  We didn’t get the images with the horse I had envisioned because of the storm…and I had to crank my camera stettings…but we still captured some beautiful images with her horse I think.  Her family was wonderful and I truly enjoyed this session.  I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!!!

Here is a full slideshow of Kaylee’s images. She’s a senior rep for me so she’ll be getting a professionally designed DVD slideshow, a 5×5 brag book, rep cards, and the opportunity to earn print credits by passing out those rep cards for me! If you’d like to do the same…contact me today!!!

Thanks Kaylee…enjoy your slideshow. What’s more, enjoy your senior year. It will go by quickly, everything will change, you will grow and and change, face challenges and celebrate victories. Enjoy every moment. God bless…
