ATTENTION PARENTS OF SENIORS! 📸

I have been asked by a few people if I could do their child’s Senior Photos. Although my answer is usually

“I haven’t done photography services in years (since 2015). I’m sorry, I can’t help you.”

I have been thinking about maybe coming out of retirement for a short time!
[I have some things I want to do to the house and don’t want to tap into savings to do it.]

So, if everyone is understanding with the amount of time it may take for me to edit the pictures (which is my biggest issue these days), I will more than likely do it.

Here would be the stipulations:

1. There will be no printing but the pictures will be given on a flash drive.

2. Not all of the pictures will be edited but I will choose a great number of the ones that look the best.

3. I will need AT LEAST two weeks to edit them.

4. You will need to be prepared with places you would like the pictures taken and the outfits you’d like to wear.

5. The best time for a shoot is during Golden Hour (last hour before sunset) and on a cloudy day so the light isn’t so harsh. Please keep that in mind.

6. I can do basic retouching of face but not heavy retouching upon editing.

Please leave a comment below if you’re interested or reach out to me in the messages.

I can’t believe it’s been 10 years already.
(I still do not want to do weddings.) 😅

Here are some of the Senior pictures I’ve done ⤵️

Feel free to share if you’d like.

I know it’s been a long time, 8 years to be exact, but what if I started playing around with offering photo sessions again?! Is the interest still there?

I may need to brush up on the trends!

It always feels good to finish a wedding gallery. Check out these newlyweds. Hope they had a blast on their honeymoon cruise in Alaska.

From hay bales to little fish. From cowgirl boots to mossy oak crocs. From the countryside to the lake shore, this wedding featured every aspect of the bride and groom's personality and what they love to do... TOGETHER! The tent was packed with all of those they chose to share the day with. The rain…

There is just something about the uniqueness of the brides bouquet and how it just goes with her personality and says so much about her. Can you tell that this gal loves the country life?
