If there’s one thing you can expect when photographing at New Town, it’s wind!  It, of course, did not fail us.  Because of the extreme gusts, we had to find creative places to photograph.  Thankfully, New Town, St Charles has an infinite variety of locations.

We have a tradition with this family.  Each girl gets a photo in front of the pond with her first car!  Three girls down, one to go.

The seniors at Orchard Farm High School have a great barn available to them (thanks to a friendly local neighbor).  The kids paint it and each senior signs his or her name.  When you are on the committee to do the painting, it’s even more fun to get your photo taken in front of the barn!  I absolutely love this shot!  The sky was amazing too.

I had so much fun this year with high school seniors.  We went to some great locations and the kids were amazing.
