This is what is so beautiful and gratifying about having the privilege to photograph others. During a photography session you are allowed into another person’s space where, IF you are truly looking as a photographer, you can glimpse their essence, their heart.
The Editors at Inspiring Teens Magazine saw this photo and reached out for me to nominate Olivia for a scholarship. I’m so flattered another professional photographer liked the images on technical and aesthetic merit but ALSO, when I see these photos and I see youth and adventure shining bright. I see accomplishments that are cherished (years of dance training and commitment to leadership) and such a bright, open heart for what her future holds.
This is why Senior Photos are so special and why I’ll never stop doing them. There’s still time to book for class of 2024 and Class of 2025 (and even 1 for 2026 🤩) have already started booking. Call me and let’s create a tangible moment in time! 📸📸📸

“Olivia Owen and I met when taking senior photos earlier this year. She’s a leader on her high school dance team and she radiates positivity and kindness. As I’ve gotten to know her through planning her senior sessions I’ve seen a confident and smart young woman who is looking forward to all her future holds. I recently found out she’s an accomplished crocheter! But beyond that she’s an accomplished dancer and a wonderful daughter, sister and friend. I’m thankful our paths crossed and I’ve had the opportunity to create beautiful photos of a beautiful young lady both inside and out.”
