Abbey had her third session with me last weekend. I love fall sessions! The colors in the trees are so beautiful. We decided on Jeffrey Park Mansion in Bexley. Abbey brought two outfits and I styled the third with items from my senior closet. (More information coming soon!!) :)
Here are a few favorites from her session!
Meet Kelsie! Kelsie contacted me wanting senior pictures and I’m so glad she did! Kelsie runs cross country and plans to major in Early Childhood Education in college.
Kelsie’s senior session was so much fun! Her session started with hair and makeup, then we headed to Franklin Park for her session. I loved her outfit choices and I think they fit her personality and style!
Here are a few images from her session!
I am in love with Caitlyn’s senior pictures!! She and her family were so much fun to work with and she is a natural in front of the camera.
For the location we chose Scioto Metro Park. Caitlyn wanted a field look so we found a location that wasn’t 30 minutes out and still gave us the look we were going for. This location was perfect!
This was my first time taking evening/night images and I LOVE them.

Meet Jayden!! I LOVED working with Jayden for her senior pictures! Jayden is a Varsity Football cheer leader as well as a Competitive Allstar Cheerleader. We started her session at her high school with a few cheer photos and then headed to Creekside for more casual looks. After high school Jayden plans to go to one of her Top 3 schools (UC, OU, or BGSU) to study Early Childhood Education to become a Kindergarten teacher.
Here are a few of her favorite images from her session.
My senior model Abbey had her second session with me a few weeks ago! She wanted to take photos in her cheer uniform at her high school! Hearing her talk about the football that past Friday was so much fun. I could tell she was excited that the Lions won the game against the Eagles!
Here are a few photos from her session!
I'm so excited to introduce Evie! Evie is one of my senior models for the Class of 2019! Evie loves to draw, paint and take photos. She plans to go to an art school for college.Her favorite tv show is, Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

We did Evie’s session at the Grange Insurance Audubon Center near downtown Columbus. I loved how her photos turned out. I can’t wait for our next session!

I'm so excited to show off Emma's senior pictures! When she told me she wanted to include her dog Linus in her senior session, I was so excited! I LOVE dogs! So Emma's senior session was originally scheduled for the last week in August. There was a 30-40% chance of rain, so I thought we could beat the rain. After getting her hair and makeup done, we headed to Franklin Park Conservatory. About 15 minutes into her session, the rain starts. We weren't a huge fan of my backup plan location so we rescheduled. I'm so glad we did! I love the photos from Emma's session!
Here a a few of her favorite images!
I'm so excited to introduce Hannah! Hannah is one of my senior models for the Class of 2019! Hannah plays tennis at her high school and at a local tennis club. She is also a member of the marching band.
For her first session we had planned to go to Jeffrey Park Mansion in Bexley but due to the rain and grey sky, we decided to do a studio session and go outside when the rain stopped. I'm so glad we just went with the flow. We took several photos inside and then went outside and got some amazing shots! I also got to try a new lighting setup outside and I think it really helped the photos pop!

I'm so excited to introduce Abbey! Abbey is a part of my spokesmodel team for the Class of 2019! She is a competitive dancer and specializes in lyrical, contemporary, jazz, hip hop, ballet, and pointe. She is also a cheerleader for the variety football team at her high school!
For her first session we shot at Schiller Park in German Village. I can't wait for our next shoot!

I had so much fun working with Elia!! She has the best laugh and the sweetest personality! I can't wait to work with her again soon! Here are a few of my favorite photos from her session.
I've been loving working with dancers lately! Last week I had the pleasure of working with Gillian! We did her shoot in Downtown Columbus and wanted to do a red, white and blue concept. Here are a few from Gillian's session along with her favorite quote.
“Having limits to push against is how you find out what you can do.”
Last week I did a last minute photoshoot with Gaby! I LOVE her style & I'm in LOVE with how the photos turned out. Here are a few of my favorite images from her studio session!
I had so much fun photographing Ava this past weekend. Her passion for dance was evident from the moment I met her. I love these photos in black & white! Here are a few images from her session, along with her favorite quotes from someone that she looks up to in the ballet world.
“Dance is the purest expression of every emotion, earthly and spiritual.”
“God gives talent. Work transforms talent into genius.”
I'm currently booking Class of 2019 for summer and fall dates. If you're interested in booking a session contact me so we can get you scheduled! Sessions are limited so don't wait!
I've been wanting to do more studio portraits. So I teamed up with Anna and Hanna again for a fun summer session! The theme for the shoot was yellow. Anna selected several cute outfits from Forever 21 for the session.
For hair and makeup, I wanted something bold and fun. We went with yellow and orange tones for the eyes and a nude lip. For the hair we did Micky Mouse buns with loose curls!

This year I entered 15 photos into the Shoot and Share contest for the first time. The Shoot and Share contest is an annual contest where anyone can enter and vote, also its completely free. You can enter up to 50 photos in 25 categories. You won't know who took the photos until after voting ends.
Since this was my first year entering, I didn't know what to expect. So I only enter 15 images into the Teens & Senior category. Next year I will enter 50 images and spread it across several of the categories.
This year there were over 1.1 million photos submitted overall and 29,460 in the teens & senior category. I was very excited to learn that 2 of my photos placed in the Top 20% and another in the Top 30%.
