Again, just wanted to thank all of you one more time and hope you have a great year to come!

Katelynn - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek!

Katy's session got rained out and we were running out of time to get her session in. We ended up meeting up North in a Town (because of a football game) that I had no idea what or where we were going to go. We drove around scouting for spots and found some pretty decent ones too! Our timing getting back to the football game was perfect too ;)

Llewellyn - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek

Llewellyn was my last senior for the season and we had good weather for once. He is a volunteer fireman which I think is pretty cool considering he's not even out of school yet. We mainly stuck with his two interests which are basketball and being a fireman.

I'm usually all about color and saturation but I am loving the black and white conversions with a lot of his shots.






I usually try to do something different and a little creative for each session. I've never used a side mirror before and I thought the texture added to it looked pretty neat.

Dave - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek

I was told this one was going to be my challenge . . . not! I think Dave did a great job. I really didn't notice that he was shy. Heck, I even got to try out something seriously cool that I've been dying to do and it came out great! Of course I'm not going to show it now, gotta leave something to look forward to right? Oh, and I have to give props to Dad he helped out in the beginning. Of course we are all laughing along with Dave.
I ran a cool processing on both of these to change it up a little.

Dakota - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek

Dakota was a lot of fun and very comfortable in front of the camera. Loved all her posing ideas! So glad she brought her colorguard props as well as the hat and scarf ;) Here's your sneak peek and I should have your full gallery up in a day or two.

Lexie - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek!

Trying to play catch-up again. I'm a little late but better late than never right? We really had
to fight the weather during this session but I'm pretty happy with what I got. Check out her eyes in these first two . . . amazing!

Lacey - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek!

I'm finally getting some of Miss Lacey's pics up for a preview! I had a great time and you did an awesome job! Can you believe her dentist took her top braces off so she could get her senior pictures done?! That was so awesome of him. Of course they're back on now but I guess it won't be long before they're off permanently. Here's a few until I get your full gallery up.

Brittany - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek!

I still can't believe that Miss Brittany is a senior! Do you remember going to Schyler's birthday parties? My how time flies! I had a great time and LOVED everything about our session - your clothes, style, posing, etc. - everything! America's Next Top Model look out!

I can't decide if I like these vintage or full color?

Caitlin - 2009 Senior Sneak Peek!

I'm trying to catch up and stay true to my promises. Here's your sneak peek Caitlin! I just have to tell you, I noticed there was a field hockey game going on so I found my way over to it. What do you know, you were playing Little Falls! LOL! I still need to get back to you on your last hour. Wondering if Sunday morning would be good for you? I'll call you to see when we can fit that in.





I had to add this one for all of Dad's efforts getting us that stick! Thanks Dad!
