Recently I met up with Aaron and Haley for their Senior Portraits. To say we had a blast in an understatement. Both Aaron and Haley wanted sessions but they also wanted some portraits of them as a couple. So instead of trying to cram two huge sessions into one normal sized one, we booked two sessions on two different days, in two totally unique locations… best of both worlds!? Yes I think so!! Talk about variety and lots of fun!
I had the pleasure of doing a consult with them a few weeks before their session. I love these because I can really get to know my clients before the big day, which makes it a lot less awkward, and I can pick up on lil details and ideas for our shoot. During our consult I was asking them who they are… what they are into… and Aaron said… well we are a “little boring”. Well let me assure you that they are anything but boring!!! They are smart, passionate, caring, hilarious teenagers… my favorite kind! They have a love for life, God, their families, and each other… and to say they are inspiring, is well just not enough!!
One of my favorite parts of Senior Sessions is adding in lil touches that make a session so very special. For Aaron this meant a Spiderman t-shirt, his gorgeous girlfriend, and a Cross and Bible that belonged to his Father. It was very touching and so special to add a little bit of his Dad to his session. For Haley this meant a favorite book, fabulous clothes, her handsome boyfriend, and an important piece of jewelry. During our consult Haley shared with me about a necklace that is not only fantastic it also helps a family in their church. The necklaces are for sale on etsy and all proceeds go to care for a very special little girl names Riley. If you know me well, you know I LOVE Etsy, especially when the money can help this family fund much needed medical care for Riley. Please take a minute to check them out! etsy.com/shop/rileybugs. I know your support will be very appreciated!!
Haley and Aaron thank you again for choosing me as your Senior Portrait Photographer! It has been a lot of fun getting to know you… I know you both will go on to do amazing things!
