Charlotte senior pictures- Jessica

Sooo Jessica’s shoot was rained out not once, not twice, but grrrr… THREE times! She decided to fit in her senior portrait session with me (yay!) before heading back to VA to complete her senior year. When we rescheduled for the second time, the weather was perfect, but the moment I broke out the camera, you guessed it- rain! We were forced to go to the studio. I know how disappointed I would be if my senior portraits were rained out…so we set up a 3rd session a few days before she left for VA. We got a few outdoor shots before it started raining yet again.

This experience totally reminded me of working with one of my past brides- Magan. Every time we scheduled anything together, it rained! I lost count of how many times we had to reschedule her bridal portraits. It even rained on her wedding day. I think I need to get back to my Cherokee roots and take up some Native American weather-dancing. If I’m clucking in blue feathers and turquoise the next time you see me, you’ll know why. =p

Shelby Senior Portraits Charlotte, NC

I had an amazing time with Shelby and her mom Kasey during her senior portrait shoot! I love her funky style. I had to get a close-up of her Chuck Taylors-remember when everyone rocked them in the early 90’s? I loooooved my plaid high-tops in Jr. High. =) I had a zillion favorites from her session but there’s no way I can fit them all into a blog entry so here are just a few:

Chloe Senior Portraits Charlotte NC

This has been a busy summer for senior portraits!! I’m going to try to get a few sessions on the blog within the next week starting with Chloe! We had a fabulous time shooting her senior portraits at Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens in Belmont. She and her family moved here from Pennsylvania. She will be finishing her senior year at Concord’s Cannon School, where they actually assign homework throughout the summer months! We roasted during her 90 degree session, but still managed to get a ton of great shots. A few favorites:

For this one, I added a border, texture, and a peach fill at 40% opacity. Last summer, I was considering purchasing a vintage-inspired Bludomain website that would only shine with textured, vintage-y (is that a word?!) images. I would have had to convert all of my images. I came SO close to buying that website, but I changed my mind when I met Keith and Amie with KA Videography Studio at the Charlotte bridal show. (Check them out if you are looking for a videographer!) They had the same website, so I kept searching for something unique. I finally found it and couldn’t be happier….but now I have all of these vintage looks that I need to put to use more often! This one wasn’t a family favorite at the viewing session, but I like it….just for something a little different =)

Ashley Lake Norman senior pictures

I have had a ton of blog traffic this month! I have a gazillion weddings, engagements, and bridals to blog but I’m swamped with wedding season right now so the blog is being neglected. I’m trying to update the blog every Friday during the summer so keep checking back! For now, here are a few favorites from Ashley’s senior portrait session in April- isn’t she stunning!?

Senior Portraits Charlotte, NC with Alyse

A few more from Alyse’s senior portrait session. We got so much variety, I had trouble narrowing them down! Where I grew up, everyone hired an independent photographer for their senior portraits. The schools even allowed modern senior portraits in the yearbook verses the traditional shots taken by the school photographer. We had to pose for the boring school headshots, but nobody purchased them. Who wants pictures that look like everybody else’s?!

I wish senior portraits would catch on here the way they have in the Midwest because I adore photographing these sessions! I always get the shots that mom loves, along with more adventurous shots that show some personality. I’m running a senior portrait promotion through the summer. Email me for all the details on how you can save on your session!

Andrew’s senior portraits

Andrew is planning to enroll in the Air Force Academy after high school graduation. I spent several years in the Air Force as a Russian linguist so I know exactly what he is in for! The military definitely isn’t for everyone, but it sounds like Andrew has what it takes to succeed at anything he puts his mind to! A few favorites from his session:

Morgan’s senior portraits

Senior portraits are by far my favorite because they are so much fun! It’s great to be able to shoot without worrying about getting a little dirty! I have to be super careful during bridal sessions, but with seniors there are no worries! Morgan is so adventurous. She posed on the railroad tracks, climbed a fence and a water tower, and was up for anything. I could just go on shooting forever during these sessions…! Morgan’s mom contacted me after they got her senior pictures back from school. They weren’t very happy with the school pictures. We captured over 100 amazing images during her session- it was cake! ;)

Katlyn’s Senior Portraits

I had so much fun shooting Katlyn’s pictures today! Not only was she easy to work with, but she also has the most beautiful blue eyes I’ve ever seen! We got so many great shots…it was hard to narrow them down.
