Living next door to someone allows you to see the growing up process with a close-up lens. Gabbie moved next door when she was a little girl. So I’ve been able to see her through playdates, birthdays, seasons, and years. She is the HAPPIEST soul and so fun to be around. We (I) had the BEST time making these photos, and I love how her personality shines through. I can’t quite believe that these are her senior photos. That we’re here.

She is sweet and beautiful and kind, and I know she’ll only continue even more in those directions through the next seasons and years.

If you check here often-ish, you know that when I post about high school seniors, that I LOVE to pull out photos I took of them as young children, if I have them. I love the comparison, and it pulls my heart strings even tighter. LOOK at Avery. That fierce, yet loving look in her eyes is exactly the same. The gorgeous glow is the same. That amazing head of hair is the same. But man, this girl has grown up. She’s a leader, so fun to be around, and she’s a knock-out. And I’ve loved watching it through my lens. <3

Vintage Roma was taken in 2011, on exactly the same farm, with exactly the same barn, with flowers from exactly the same garden, and in exactly the same creek. My photos have evolved a bit, and Roma……she has gone from adorable freckle-faced child to stunning, slightly freckle-faced beauty. Seeing this much growth in front of my lens makes my heart swell. We had fun during her photo shoot and there are so, so many great photos. Here are a few………

Juli traveld a bit to come visit me for her senior session, and I couldn’t have been more thrilled! Enjoy these beautiful photos of a beautiful young lady!!

AJ and I go back a long time……he doesn’t actually remember when his parents were in college over 25 years ago, but I do. And it was incredibly special to be able to take senior photos for the son of long time friends. AJ’s work on academics and football are paying off- he’s off to the Ivy League next year to play for Columbia University!

His teammates call him Jonny Weaver, and that would be teammates from TWO sports at once, soccer and football. Amanda Clearcreek HS has been lucky to have this one, and he’s not done yet. Good luck on the rest of your senior year and enjoy your sneak peek!

Sometimes, you have to postpone your senior photo session because you break your arm and require surgery the week of your photos. And then you come back, stronger than ever, and more photogenic than ever! Enjoy Drew’s sneak peek!

Campbell is full of talent, friendship, and easygoing vibes. It was so much fun taking photos with her! Enjoy her beautiful sneak peek!

Thanks to weather delays, sports, and other factors, I got to spend a lot of time with Clare, and I loved it! This girl is gorgeous and sweet and athletic and soooooo photogenic! Enjoy!
