Happy New Year!

I am happy to share some more high school senior photos, this time of the gorgeous Laura.  We had an amazing evening and afternoon for this session.  Due to the short daylight hours, we had to break this into two different days.  The first part was shot just before and just after the sunset so I got to be creative with lighting.

Seniors have the option of multiple locations and outfits. It’s a great way to get variety. Don’t you love the outfits she selected? The earrings were purchased just for the occasion!

The first part of the session was shot at New Town, St. Charles, and the latter part down on the riverfront.  I love shooting at both locations. Every time I go to either place, I always find new nooks and crannies and I get a new look for each senior. (Ok, there are a few spots that everyone wants, but I do try to change it up and make each session unique.)

Here’s one of the collages I created for purchase.  It’s a 10×20 mounted portrait collage featuring four different images.  My favorite shot is the one on the bridge.  It was getting dark, so I had to stage this like a studio shot.  Perfectly placed lights allowed us to get such dramatic results!

Here’s a close-up of the bridge image.  It’s pretty small in the web version of the collage:

I’m looking forward to another great year of High School senior sessions!
