I enjoyed meeting Katie, and shooting her session in a way that made you feel like you were at Cantigny, but we weren’t. I was impressed by her planning for the session, and heard a little bit about her shopping for senior pictures. ( Who needs a reason… but so nice to have one! ) I love her eyes, and love her relaxed look in the grass. What a goregous girl!

I first met Michael when came to his friend Alex’s viewing, I knew right away it was he was being with excitment to book his own session just as soon as it was time. It was no surprise his mom called and asked some questions, and no surprise they then booked him a Ryan – the Rocker session. So I had met him before, but when I saw him again I could not get over how absolutely adorable he was. I am not sure if it was the sun or the fact that he was super excited for his session but his eyes just seemed to shine. For Michael’s session, I really pushed myself to give him locations that were boyish and also places I had never shot before and really had him in mind when I picked them. I can not tell you how in love I am with each of his shots! It was hard to pick.

I had so much fun with Claire, her sister Natalie and her fantastic mom Debbie. I loved chatting it up with them and hearing what their up to in life. I love the mother daughter bond of course, and seeing these girls blossom and be embraced by a mom such as real and cool as Debbie was so fun. I look forward to Natalie’s shoot when she’s a senior and many of their friends in the meantime! I love the green make up on Claire, and her cute laughter, and love that super hot black dress too!

So this has been a crazy week so far as far as shooting, because Wednesday it rained, and we just kept on shooting and hung out in the rain and mist anyway and it was great. Corrine & Heather are the first set of twins I ever photographed so that was great. I also had the pleasure of hanging out with their loving parents too, I think it would be amazing to have twins myself so I think it’s neat to see parents that have done it and done it well. Just look at these gorgeous girls. Also thanks to Sophie for hanging out with me all day!
