Senior Photo Session | Jessie
I've known Jessie since she was a baby, and so getting the opportunity to take senior photos of her was such an honor and pleasure.
Jessie is such a fun-loving, sweet, funny, respectful, musical, and intelligent young woman with a super bright future ahead of her. (Kudos to her parents who have done an amazing job raising her!)
Fun fact: Jessie taught herself to play the ukulele by watching YouTube videos.
Before each senior session, I email a questionnaire to the teen, asking them for input about their session -- everything from location to music preferences to must-have shots. Jessie said that it was really important to her to have a few photos with her dog, Oliver.
And Jessie also requested that I take photos of her wearing her Seattle University shirt.
Jessie's mom brought along a few photos of Jessie as a baby. Isn't this one adorable?!
Old Roseville is such a cool place to take senior photos, especially for those clients who prefer an urban setting. All of the images shown here were taken within a few blocks, and we just walked from place to place.
I was totally digging this blue wall!
I love that Jessie brought matching bow ties for her and Oliver!
Jessie and I both spotted the shadow of the palm tree on this wall at. the. exact. same. time. I thought it was important to photograph her next to this wall, not only because she was born and raised in California, but also because in just a few months, she'll leave the palm trees behind and head to Seattle to study engineering.
A big thanks to Lea Buehler for doing Jessie's makeup!
Preschool Photos
This cutie -- smiling beautifully at the camera -- made my job SO easy!
Now that the holidays are over and my photography workload has slowed down, I thought I'd tell you about a really cool opportunity that popped up last fall.
In September, I was asked to take photographs of the preschoolers at Tutor Totter Preschool. My son attended Tutor Totter Preschool for two years before heading off to kindergarten, and he loved it there! Really, we all loved it there!
So, of course, I said, "YES!"
What fun it was to meet all 30 of the preschoolers. They are such cuties!
A big THANK YOU to Tutor Totter for inviting me to take their 2017 fall photos. It was a pleasure!
