Kicking off Senior Year with these cuties was so special!!! Many of these girls I’ve know since elementary school…and one of them…my own senior… ahh be still my heart! This is the year… the year that all the open chapters end and all the building up happens… and the new beginnings are right around the corner… and us parents have a front row seat! There’s just a tiny window of what’s to come all meshed in together too! I absolutely love with my whole heart photographing seniors! It’s my passion! This amazing pivotal time and all of these young kids lives is such a bundle of potential and I’m so here to see it all! I love capturing this age just how they are all the fun all the joy! If you are looking to hold on to this fun time in your life or in your child’s life, message me today… I’d love to set something up!

It feels like just yesterday I was photographing her as a little girl with her family, and now here she is… a gorgeous, kind-hearted senior with the brightest future ahead. Watching her grow into such a beautiful young woman has been such an honor. 💛
Her golden hair glowing in the sunset, the soft beach light, and every sweet smile made this session sooo fun!

Getting to capture this cap + gown session on their high school football field during the prettiest golden light felt so special. The laughs, the memories, the excitement for what’s ahead — it all made me so emotional in the best way. There’s just something so magical about celebrating seniors in this season of life. Watching these girls stand on the field where they made so many memories, now getting ready for their next chapter, was such an honor to capture 🤍Love you 3!!!

There is something so special about photographing someone you’ve known and loved since the very beginning. 💝🫶🏻✨
This beautiful senior session at the Sarasota Marina at sunrise felt like a dream — soft pastel skies, mirror glass water reflecting every bit of light, and the sweetest soul!
I’ve known Parker since she was born, and watching her grow into such a kind, beautiful, warm hearted young woman has been such a gift. Her family means so much to me, and getting to capture this season of her life was sooo special.
This fall she’s heading off to Florida Atlantic University and I already know she’s going to do amazing things. The world is lucky to have her. 🦉🩵❤️

Congratulations, beautiful girl — your future is so bright.
