Working as a Cranberry Senior Photographer brings me a lot of joy.  So you can only imagine that Hayley was such a JOY to photograph!  We had so much fun during her session – as always, lots of laughs and lots of photos!  I have loved every minute of working with Hayley and her mom.

My first impression of Hayley came to me when she sent me her outfit options, and I knew I was in for a treat.  She was styling herself perfectly and I could tell by her selections she was an outgoing and fun-loving girl.  And, boy was I right!  She continued to impress me throughout the session as we talked and learned more about each other.  I love getting to know my clients, and Hayley was no exception.

She’s so talented, to say the least, and I was impressed with all the activities she was involved in.  Then the topic of musicals came up – LOVE! 🙂  I love musicals, and was happy to hear she loved them as well.

I can only imagine the great and amazing things that await in her future, and I was honored to be a part of her life – if just for her senior photos!  It was an amazing experience and I wish her all the best!

Can’t wait for our paths to cross again….enjoy some of her photos!

Love the sparkle in her eyes in the next few photos!  This girl shines so bright!  That was cheesy, yes, but it’s true!

So I put Hayley in front of this fountain, and I just took at step back and looked at her mom and said, “Just take it all in.  Look at your beautiful girl up there and she’s a senior!”  A little emotional moment – I’m sure it’s a realization of all Hayley’s hard work and dedication.

This black dress is her performance dress….it’s so elegant!

I love fields of wildflowers.  It’s so beautiful…well, I went back to this spot about a week later and they cut this down!  What looks like weeds to someone else is a photographer’s dream.  I was devastated! 🙂

I admitted to Hayley that I had to look up how to spell ukulele when I was writing an email to her!  It’s a tricky one.

I can’t believe she learned to play so that she could perform Somewhere Over the Rainbow.  Did I mention she’s talented?!?!

 Thanks for letting us be a part of your senior journey, Hayley!  Wishing you much love, success and happiness!

Wow!  It’s hard for me to believe that Noelle is a senior.

I have known Noelle for years since she was a youth in the church youth group I was working with years ago.  I took Noelle’s sister’s senior photos last year and was honored when Noelle submitted an application to be one of my senior reps this year.

If you look up overachiever in the dictionary, there is a photo of Noelle!  She’s involved in so many things – musicals, chorus, orchestra, sports, church.  The list goes on and on.  She was recently part of the Outstanding Young Women Program and was a winner for Presence & Presentation!  She’s uber-talented, and I see a very bright future for her.  The college of her choice is going to so lucky to have her.

I had such a great time with Noelle during her session – including when she was sitting in the makeup chair feeling like a movie star.  I love giving an experience to our clients, and I’m certain Noelle got an amazing experience – so many laughs and good times.  Enjoy some of her photos.

I love getting natural reactions out of my clients.  I say CRAZY things to do so.  Noelle gave me a fierce look, and I said something completely off the wall – it made her laugh and BAM!  I capture the below! 🙂

Next photo by Tony.

I love these little candid moments that Tony captures.  And, I always love putting them in black and white.

Are we sure she isn’t a model?!? 🙂
