I had an absolute ball getting to take Katie Jones senior photos last weekend! I got to know this girl while teaching at DHCA a couple of years ago, but I’m even more in love with Katie after spending personal time photographing her. She is so cute, fun and super chill. She didn’t stress over anything and just effortlessly fell into gorgeous poses. She would bust into laughter when I would put her in weird positions that didn’t feel like her usual way of standing in front of a camera. I was clicking away capturing the explosion of laughter and joy that was contagious. It’s abundantly clear why she is so popular to the point of even winning home coming queen this year. She is just so fun!

I could go on and on, but the photos speak for themselves. I especially love the ones of Katie in her element with a ball in hand. She is going to Samford University next fall and I can’t wait to see her prosper in every way possible during that next chapter in her life. I will definitely be following along and rooting for her. This girl is a total star and I have so much love for her.

I was so excited to meet up with Emily on a beautiful sun shiny day in October! Last time I was with her it was raining cats and dogs out of no where. The weather predicted nothing but sunshine but then, BOOM!, storm of the century. Since I was already with her, we took a few photos in a cute coffee shop and decided it was best to reschedule.

The day we picked for our second go around was total perfection and so was Emily! This girl is a total doll! I loved getting to capture her sweet self. Plus, this time she went to Hali Gurley for her hair & makeup and she looked extra amazing. Senior photo sessions always go a million times better when you go to a really skilled hair & makeup artist. They have advance tools that photograph well. Emily definitely photographed well. I’m so in love with all her fun photos!

Annabelle is so classically gorgeous with the prettiest carmel colored eyes. It was so fun meeting up with her and her mom on the most gorgeous October day that we could have asked for. Photographing seniors on a perfect fall day is at the top of my list of favorites.

We started out on Bank Street in downtown Decatur because it always offers awesome scenery and charm. Then we went to Delano Park and skipped the rose garden because I was after the vibrant colored yellow fall trees. They did not disappoint and complimented Annabelle’s beautiful eyes and outfit fantastically. I loved getting to spend time with this amazing girl and look forward to seeing her succeed at all she takes on. She is going to do great!

Feeling pretty excited about posting my first male 2020 senior of the year! I have a few more scheduled, but I told Baker he was my first of the season so, “no pressure…” hahahaha. Baker was up for the challenge and he did not disappoint at all. His senior photoshoot was smooth sailing.

The funniest part of the whole shoot was towards the end when I was having Baker get into a standing pose after he was just in a sitting position and he made me pinky promise him that it would be the last time he had to get up & down. Hahahaha. He is very tall and was just done with being a model. I laughed, told him that that was going on the blog and we finished up with standing poses only. ? Baker did amazing and I’m so glad I got the opportunity to capture this awesome milestone in his life. I love his whole family so much!❤️

I absolutely loved getting the opportunity to take Jaycey’s Senior Photos. The reason this was an extra special session was because I also took her brother Austin’s senior pictures last year. It’s just so rewarding to get to know them as a family. It was fun catching up about what’s been going on since I met with their mom last year around this time.

And Jaycey is just too cute! We were all excited about the most amazing weather that kept a smile on all of our faces. All of Jaycey’s photos from this beautiful fall day are simply stunning! I look forward to seeing this sweet girl excel at all she does in college next year.

Carli completely won over my heart during her senior photoshoot last week. This girl has the BEST personality and photographing her was SUPER enjoyable. I love everyone I get the opportunity to photograph but there are some I just have exceptionally great chemistry with and time flys.

Fun doesn’t even begin to describe what happened while I was photographing Carli. She was a energetic ball of joy with crazy awesome confidence in front of the camera. I was just snapping aways while she was just having fun working it! All her adorable facial expressions are my favorite. I was smiling so big while editing this really fun session. And I know Carli is going to do AMAZING at college next year and I can’t wait to hear more about it! ❤️ this girl so much!

Bella is the absolute cutest! Her and her mom are total pros when it comes to Senior Photoshoots during hot Alabama weather! The day I met up with Isabella it was melt-your-face-off HOT! But her mom had her a little fan, an ice pack of water and kept the air conditioner going in the their vehicle. It was awesome! Bella would just jump in the car and we could drive to each spot so we could do our best to keep those curls despite the heat. Love it so much!

And it 100% paid off big time because I captured the most stunning photos of Bella! It seriously isn’t difficult considering she is SUPER pretty. Also, fun fact! Bella is just as smart as she is beautiful! Her mom told me she got some insanely high score on the ACT that I can’t even remember now but it is impressive. She is going to school become a children’s pediatrician and I’m just standing here in awe of how awesome that is and she is! Go Bella! Looking forward to watching you set this planet on fire with your fabulous smart & beautiful self. ❤️???

I absolutely loved getting to take this gorgeous curly haired chicks senior photos! Her eyes are ice blue in some light and then emerald green in others. They are like beautiful color filled mirrors reflecting the gorgeous scenery. Dude, I was just obsessed! hahahaha. And she has the kindest heart that was so enjoyable to be around.

The ones in the rose garden are AMAZING especially. I feel like she was born to be photographed in a rose garden. Again, I’m being “extra” sappy with my in-love descriptions of her, but I do just adore this girl. I think I said, “you are just so stunning” like a thousand times… ? Anyways, her senior shoot was fabulous, she is fabulous and I know her senior year is going to be fabulous! ???

I have a special place in my heart for Marissa Legg. I first met this gorgeous girl while photographing her before Junior Prom earlier this year. It was raining and there was so much going on, but we created total magic on that day. That’s why I knew when we met up again to do her Senior Photoshoot that it was going to be epic. I was 100% right, but what I didn’t know was that I would be praying a lot more than usual while I was taking pictures. You see, Marissa has a wild dare devil side that likes to be photographed from high spots! If it looked super high in the air, sounded cool in her head and the ladder was nearby then she was going for it! And I was praying to Jesus that she would live to see her beautiful photos. Thank you Lord she did!

Besides getting to capture this pretty as can be chick, I also enjoyed getting to meet her family. They were there every step of the way to help her out. It was super sweet and I could see where she got her caring heart from. Marissa is as kind as she is gorgeous and I loved getting to catch it all! ❤️??

This beautiful chick right here had all the moves during her senior photoshoot last weekend. She has a really cool hippyish gyspy like vibe and we were really wanting to shoot at Isom’s Orchard’s flower field, but the intense heat ended the flower field season a little early. It was so sad to see the field completely bare. That’s life though! There is a season for everything and they will be back next summer just as pretty as ever!

Chapel still wanted the flower field look so we ended up going to The Huntsville Botanical Garden. Also, can I just say how cool I think the name Chapel is! Love that name and her awesome personality lives up to it too. Before I get off track talking about how much I adored Chapel, The Huntsville Botanical Garden did not disappoint. It was in full bloom and Chapel rock it out. I’m obsessed with all her photos!
