Hadiza – West High School

December 18, 2007

Here’s Hadiza, our last official senior girl of the year!  Kinda sad to be done!  She was such fun!  A ton of our senior clients this year came from West High School in Iowa City and we’ve been enjoying getting to know all of them.

Even though it was FREEZING cold outside, Hadiza was up for my crazy ideas and I think we got some amazing shots.

Check out my fav’s:

MIA

December 6, 2007

Sorry I’ve been a little MIA on the blog this week…I’ve had the flu, an infection, a fever and I also became allergic to the medicine that was supposed to make me better!! It was awful…but now I’m on the mend though still not venturing out of the house much. I keep trying to make my mom’s homemade potato soup…it always makes me feel better.

Anyway, how about some sweet photos to cheer us all up?! Hanna is such a gorgeous girl. She was one of our spokesmodels from West High School and she is just fantastic. She’s so super cute and is super comfortable in front of the camera. I could have taken photos of her all day! Unfortunately the weather was FREEZING outside so we didn’t spend very long out there…but I still LOVE these photos!

Irene – West High School

November 19, 2007

This girl has some spunk! She loves Marilyn Monroe, show choir and kickboxing…and I’m pretty sure she could be a model – she’s great in front of the camera! Our first shot below was a tribute to the classic Marilyn Monroe pose…very elegant!

Check out some fav’s!

West Branch High School – Amber

November 8, 2007

Amber’s an athlete.   She’s super good at softball and is planning to play at college next year.  But before she leaves to play college ball she had to have some senior photos taken – and I’m so glad she came to us!

Check out some shots!

Kirby – Session 3…or is it 4?

November 6, 2007

This girl has been here so many times I can’t remember which session this is for sure! 🙂  Kirby is one of our senior spokesmodels and has been such a joy to work with!  Not only is this girl gorgeous but she has such a great personality and great taste in photography (ha!)

Check out what I think is her last session with us – I’m gonna miss her!

This first photo, I had a vision for….with my art, I can often feel what is the right photo…it’s hard to describe but it just feels right while I’m shooting.  I also can envision something before I take it….I saw a cool red brick wall….and this image popped into my head:

Abbie

October 28, 2007

What a fun weekend!  Stephen, the kids and I drove to my hometown in Minnesota to celebrate my mom’s birthday – we threw a surprise party and everything!  We had such a blast but it’s nice to be back home again!
Here are some photos of another senior client of ours, Abbie.  Abbie was a joy to photograph – this girl loves photography!  I even threw in a couple of photos of her with her camera, check ’em out!

Curtis

October 25, 2007

One of my good friend’s little brothers came to me for his senior photos lately – Curtis! Curtis is a guy’s guy – into four wheelers, hunting, his bow and arrow and all around tough guy stuff! This was a fun treat for me – it’s my first official wheelie in senior photos – check it out!

Why not throw in one with his sisters and brother-in-law?! On the right side of this photo are our good friends Jill and Brad.  We hang out all the time! Brad and my hubby, Stephen, coach basketball together – so this leaves Jill and I with lots of time to hang out together – and what do we do? We shop like it’s going outta style! 🙂

Amanda

October 24, 2007

This girl had a drive to get here – she’s from my hometown in Minnesota – about 4 hours away! But, I’m so glad she drove over because she was so much fun! We grew up knowing each other (actually, one year our moms had us dress up together for Halloween….I was a chicken and she was my egg which I pulled around in a little wagon behind me! ha!)

Anyway, it was great seeing Amanda again and reliving a few high school memories (she’s a senior at my high school now and has a few of the same teachers I used to have!)

This girl has some gorgeous blue eyes – check out a few favorite shots!

Seth

October 22, 2007

Sorry I’ve been gone from the blog for a few days – I spent my weekend taking about a trillion kids photos for a MOPS fundraiser.  It was great to help out but I’m exhausted!

Anyway, back to some more awesome seniors.  Seth is a senior from Tipton – he came to us with a cool personal style so I was amped to get to photograph him.  I love it when guys bring along guitars – so sweet!  Check out some favorites!

Jeff

October 17, 2007

Here’s another West Branch Senior.  He’s a football player on the awesome WB Bears team, and Jeff is also a super nice guy!  Actually, his family is pretty darn nice all around so they’re a joy to work for!

Check out some of my favorite shots!
