Cameron's Senior Photos With His Dad's '69 SS Camaro

Cameron Cox said he liked classic cars on his senior form that I have all of my senior clients fill out. Little did I know that this ‘69 SS Camaro would be this COOL! Cameron got quite the variety of locations for his senior photos. We started at his home and captured a few photos with his two beagles, headed to a bridge near his family’s home with his dad’s Camaro, drove into downtown Muncie and walked a couple blocks, and then ended along the river in Muncie. He got all the fall colors and had such great weather for his session. Just a month earlier I captured his older sister’s wedding, it was so much fun getting to know this sweet family and capture such important moments for them.

Senior Spokesmodel Styled Shoot: BOHO PARTY IN THE WOODS

We spent the entire day at the studio for hair and makeup. Kayla Butler styled their hair with their favorite Boho styles (lots of braids and fun curls). Andrea Connelly did their makeup, with natural colors to showcase their true beauty. MY VENDORS WERE AMAZING to work with! While the girls got all dolled up, I captured behind the scene photos of each of them and we jammed out to music. It couldn’t have went better! After showing up at 8:45 that morning finishing my set up from the day before, the girls started showing up at 10 am and hair and makeup started! We finished getting ready in the studio at 4:30 and headed out to the woods on golf carts. The girls faces lit up when they saw the styled shoot set up for the very first time! The shoot included a Belle tent, tall colorful candles, vintage crystal colorful glasses, tons of colorful blankets and pillows, handmade bouquets recycled from a wedding, my fave Target egg chair, an old ladder, and lots of other accessories to make up a boho vibe….

Magical Flower Field Shoot with Blair

GUYS! I can't tell you how many times during this shoot I giggled and said, "OH MY WORD BLAIR!" Can you believe this location is a spot I have driven by 10,000+ times in my life. I never thought about it being such a magical location until about a month ago. As a photographer I am always scouting out new locations and exploring new spots for my clients. Blair is one of my senior spokesmodels and did ABSOLUTELY amazing throughout the entire shoot. These are just some highlights, there are soooo many more just as magical as these!

I may be 26 but you never are too old to ask for your mommas help! I had my momma, Jennifer come along and shoot some behind the scenes shots for me to share on social media with everyone. As a photographer I don't get many photos of me behind the camera, so these photos and videos mean the absolute world to me. (Thanks mom!)

If anyone is wondering where all of her cute outfits are from, Blair is a brand ambassador for The Wispy Pine Boutique! Feel free to follow their page and check out all of their adorable outfits and accessories.

Riley With Her Dog Gypsy

I got the opportunity to capture Riley, who is a senior at Yorktown high School graduating this Sunday. Her momma wanted a session with her 12 year old dog Gypsy, so that is what we did! I absolutely love being able to capture pets in photo sessions. When I was a senior in high school, I lost my childhood dog, Biscuit to old age. That previous summer I had had photos taken in my backyard with him and those photos mean the world to me. Being able to look back at those images, after he was gone is so special to me, and I will hold on to those for the rest of my life.
