Saturday evening was absolutely PERFECT for a senior session on the beach! Well, is was until man-eating flies began to swarm. Ouch, those things hurt! Anyway, I had the pleasure of spending the evening with Elise and her Mom. Beautiful weather, great conversation,  pretty scenery, and a gorgeous senior. I think all of that should make for awesome images. What do you think?

I couldn’t resist adding this out-take. The water was a little chilly. :)

{ LEAH } take two

Saturday, September 4th, 2010

On Thursday, I had the pleasure of working with Leah again. The last time (click here) we worked on her senior pictures, a terrible lightning storm ruined our fun. Well, it was nothing but hot, clear weather for us this time. Leah was different in the aspect that she wanted all of her pictures taken in Folkston. So, I was wracking my brain for cool ideas. I surprised even myself with some of the places I found :) Enjoy round two of the sneak peek! Also, I’ll be adding more along the way to my facebook page, too.

{ Class of 2011 } Justin

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

To say that I had a blast last night with Justin and his Mom, Paula, would be an understatement! At times, I laughed until my sides hurt. We had beautiful (and some a bit creepy) locations to shoot Justin’s senior pictures. Only a few times did we get sidetracked by ticks, ants (the size of elephants,) private property signs, and ghosts. ;) All in all, I think the results were totally worth it! Here are just a tiny few that we managed to capture last night. Enjoy!

{ Class of 2011 } TAYLER style- pt. 1

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

Yesterday morning Tayler and I got together for part one of her senior pictures. She chose the MOST requested setting, a small local farm. The plan was to get a few pics there and then head to the beach last evening. Well, a fantastic lightning storm cancelled that goal. Plan B is to shoot it tonight, but it’s beginning to look like that may not happen either. :( Anyway, I think we captured some pretty good images to hold you over. Enjoy!

{ LEAH } take one

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

Last night, we started on Leah’s senior pictures. She chose a “country” setting to start our session. Well, due to a little rain, but a LOT of lightning, we had to end the session there, too. :(   Never fear, we will get together again for more looks/locations of the beautiful Leah! Until then, enjoy a few that we did manage to capture.

{ Princess with an Attitude }

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

 I had an absolute blast working with Kenzie and her Mom, Joanna, last night. It was quite a twist from my usual work, but we completely ran with it. Although the look we were going for was a little more dark and “goth,” Kenzie’s natural beauty still shined. Heavy makeup and dark clothing can’t hide this stunner!

{ Karley- Class of 2011 }

Friday, July 30th, 2010

 Around our area, this young lady needs no introduction. ;) Pretty, popular, cheerleader, outgoing, “raised” in a great, close knit family, and, oh yea, EXTREMELY photogenic… these are just a few thoughts that come to mind when I think of Karley. Last night, we had a hot, humid, sticky senior session, but, from the looks of the images, you couldn’t tell.

{ Best Friends Forever }

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

 Last night’s session was a double. :) I had best friends Brittney and Amanda for fun senior sessions. We had lots of laughs, took tons of pictures, and didn’t get rained on. yay! Here is just a snippet of what we captured. Enjoy!

{ Roman }

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Last night, I had the pleasure of working with Deena and her son Roman. If you will remember, Roman is one of my Senior Reps. I HAVE TO share a snippet from the email Deena sent to me when I was looking for my reps. (She’s probably going to kill me:)

Christy,
Why not a male for your Ware High Representative? I know females are so-called photogenic but why not take on a challenge of a football/baseball/ford truck kind of guy!

Now, how on Earth could I pass up a challenge like that?!? I’m glad I didn’t! They have been an absolute pleasure to work with. The following is a longer than usual sneak peek, but I wanted to show that even though I normally have senior girls, I can work with the guys, too. Hope you enjoy!

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Last night, I had a session with not one, but two beautiful families. Seriously, how cute can these kids AND teens get?!? Wow! Moms, hope you like what you see because there is lots more to come. ;)
