Meet Samantha! CLASS OF twenty16 GRADUATE!

Where to start with Samantha. Tall.  Brilliant. Gorgeous.  That sums it up pretty well.  She was taking college courses at ASU as a Senior.  What the heck?  Let's just say we didn't have any intellectual convos cause I couldn't hang!  She's much more than just brains & beauty, though.  She's got a good heart, too!

The thing that i absolutely love about her session is that her wardrobe is on POINT!  We met before her session and she had a few questions on what to wear. Mostly all I did was confirm her choices, cause the girl knows fashion. Each entire outfit flows together.   The colors, style, texture, & accessories for each outfit are so perfect for each location, it's like they're married!  She didn't over accessorize & although each outfit is in style, it's not overly trendy so in 30 years she won't end up on the bad paid for photos list ; ) Each color she wore is "her color", ie. colors that look great with her skin tone & eye & hair color.  She chose solids, which keeps the focus on her, no distracting large pattern. Her makeup & hair also spot on!  Cameron added a braid on location for the last shots, which gave her a different look from the others.  (Cameron will be available to come along & add a 2nd hairstyle this coming senior season!)
Seriously, picture perfect!  
I'm so glad I got to meet you Samantha and had a blast hanging out with you and your Mom!  Congratulations on your Graduation tomorrow!  I can NOT wait to hear about your adventures in Athens & know you will do amazing things at UGA!  Come back & see me!!

Meet Abigayle! Class of TWENTY16! graduating tomorrow!

Ah to be young with your whole life ahead of you and to have senior pics like these!  Ahhhhhh.  Abigayle's mom and I are from the same area in Alabama.  It was fun to have someone else with that familiar twang that only comes from Alabama, ; )  One shot we got is very similar to one her Mom has of her as a little girl so we ordered a wall size portrait of it so she could hang them next to each other.  It really does fly by.  Keep the tissues close by tomorrow, Sheila!
     Abigayle's smile is so gorgeous & those EYES though!  Really they are stunning!  The lighting was just amazing and shot after shot, she killed her session!   
Abigayle, thank you so much for choosing me to photograph you at this monumental time!  You are just a doll and I can't wait to see what you do in the future!  I know whatever it is, you will have a blast doing it! 
Here are some of my faves from her shoot!

Meet Natalie! Class of 20 SIXTEEN! GRADUATING TOMORROW!!!

Natalie is pretty much the whole package.  She's smart (headed to UGA this fall), witty, compassionate, & adorable!!   Having moved 10 times throughout her life, she's a latecomer to Georgia but settled in quite well. I can't imagine how hard it would be to move to a new high school your sophmore year.  I would have rebelled & ended up with the wrong crowd doing wrong things.  Natalie, though, rose to the ocassion, making loads of new friends, becoming the star Lax player, co editor of the yearbook, an honor student, and an all around classy girl.  Wow.  Perseverence & hard work does pay off! Her shoot was awesome!  She had several different looks and we managed to capture them all before the sun went down! Some of my favorite shots are below!
Natalie, I'm glad to know you and wish you all the best things in life cause you deserve them!  I have no doubt you will soar at UGA!  Congratulations on graduating tomorrow!  You did it Girl!!
