Dana.......2011 Senior Rep!

Dana and I had lots of fun walking around Muskegon finding great spots for some photos.  It was a beautiful day.....not too cold, not too hot!  Perfect.  Dana is going to be a 2011 senior rep for us this year in Grant....along with her boyfriend, Daniel (our nephew!).  I am super excited for this year's senior photos to start....seniors are always up for anything...coming with great style and ideas of their own!  Just like Dana was......

Here is Dana's senior rep interview:

1-What is your favorite color?   Blue

2-What is your dream job?    Dream job would have to be...well to tell you the truth, I don't really know. I know that sounds funny... But I just don't.

3-If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?  If I could go anywhere it would be Australia :)

4-What is your fave thing to do in the summer?    In the summer I love playing softball and hanging out with my family and friends. :)

5-What is your favorite clothing accessory?  Hmm...... I would have to say that just a simple cross necklace does the trick for me..haha. But most of the time I dont wear any accessories.

6-What was your favorite part about your photo shoot?  My favorite thing about the shoot was how many places we found that were amazing! And of course the photographer made it alot of fun as well ;)

 

I loved how these railroad tracks came together....

Dana had a little attitude!  (always a good thing for photos!)

These are my fave...which one do you like best?

I love road shots......


Tracy....Hudsonville High Senior Rep!

I had so much fun Tracy and her friend Katy!  The entire session was non-stop laughing.....which is always fun!  It was my first time going to the Gaslight Village in East Grand Rapids and I loved it!  The town was unique and was a five minute walk away to a beautiful lake!  The sun was shining bright and the day was perfect.......except for battling the wind! We ended up with lots of great shots for her to choose from!! 

Tracy's Senior Rep Q's & A's!

1-What is your fave color?   Lime Green

2-What is your fave movie?  August Rush

3-If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?  Sydney, Australia

4-What is your fave thing to do in the summer?  Go to the beach :]

5-What would your best friend say is the best thing about you?  I like to make people smile

6-What was your fave part about your photo shoot?  Everythinggg. It was so much fun! The changing in public part was a bit strange, but hey you gotta try something new everyday!

My fave!!

Super cute!

I asked Tracy to pucker up....she laughed instead!  Still cute :)

Kaity.....2010 Senior!

Yesterday was a fun-filled, frostbite kinda shoot!!  Kaity decided that she would like her senior portraits taken in downtown Grand Rapids (one of my fave places to shoot :) ).  We bundled up...well at least Kaity's mom and I did....and we braved the 20 degree weather for some gorgeous photos!  Kaity looks amazing in every photo, so I don't know how she is ever going to choose one for the yearbook! 

We started off in front of TGI Fridays, then walked around several city blocks, finding every interesting location that we could see.  We even managed to snap a few shots inside the Amway Grand Plaza....and to thaw out for a few minutes.  Sunday morning is a great time to wander around downtown b/c there is hardly anyone there!  I highly recommend this to anyone looking for some unique photos...the locations are endless!!

Kaity-thanks for being so fun to work with, even in the freezing temperatures!  I hope you LOVE your photos!!!

Her eyes are piercing!!  Beautiful!!

Lee'a......2010 Senior!!!

Yesterday was a fun day of senior shoots.....including Lee'a!!  The weather was perfect (about 60 degrees) and Lee'a was gorgeous!  We went to several different spots....two tracks, middle of the national forest, middle of the road...etc, all with me wearing a neon yellow, high-visibility vest to make sure that we don't look like deer to those hunters :) 

Lee'a was great!  She is absolutely gorgeous and was sooo easy to photograph.  It was a little difficult at first to get her "serious" look, but we finally did it and those are some of my fave shots!!

Lee'a:  Thanks so much for being great to work with!!  You look like a super-gorgeous runway model in your pics!  I hope you enjoy them!!

Lee'a.....just sitting in the middle of the dirt two tracks!!

I love the hot pink!!

I love the black and white!

This is my favorite!!

Seniors.... Chelsea & Courtney

Chelsea and Courtney were super sweet and great to work with!!  We started the morning off with a slight drizzle.......which turned into a full out rain shower!!!  The girls were amazing! They continued taking pics even though they were wet....sitting down when I asked...posing barefoot....perfect!!  I was so glad when I went through their photos and found tons of great ones!!!  Especially since they endured so much during the shoot!!!

I had so much fun with Bron!! Bron decided to have her senior pics taken on her family's large farm..... Bron rocked out the shoot in her fancy dresses and her fun personality! She was up for anything....which made for some great photos! It was my longest senior shoot to date, but I could have taken pictures for hours more....but we ran out of daylight! Here are a few of my faves......

Good luck with everything Bron! Thanks for allowing me to take your senior pics...I hope you enjoy them!
