Kathryn. Greensboro, NC Senior Session.

I love Kathryn's spunk and love for life. She showed up for her senior session looking adorable and totally ready for anything with plenty of outfits and crayons in tow. "I'm not a model!" she warned me. I don't care, I think she did great!

P.S. The amazing Carla White did Kathryn's hair for this session :)



We started in a woodsy/field area for some more natural backgrounds. I love Kathryn's "no smile" face.



I also love her laughing-because-a-bug-flew-in-her-face face.





Cowboy boots. So classic and cute!





We went through quite a bit of brush, poison ivy, and unstable rocks to get to this little stream. Totally worth it.







After a quick change we headed to downtown Greensboro.



I think this photo is so stunningly beautiful.



This is one of my favorites from the session. I love all the lines and shapes!





Before the session, Kathryn told me she *loves* coloring. So we took a few minutes to do just that :)



Her brother even joined in for a few minutes!







Kathryn's hippo and elephant Silly Bandz came in handy for some fun shots :) We were cracking up during this series.













I love the coloring book Kathryn brought. It reminded me of Lamb Chop for some reason. Anyone remember that show?





This is the rock star portion of the shoot. Don't you love the vest?







We were talking about how a bunch of the men in Kathryn's family worked on railroads for most of their lives when this train started passing by! We couldn't resist a few shots with the train in the background.

Makenna. A Senior Session.

This is my sweet cousin, Makenna. And yes, I am totally loving doing all these shoots of people close to me. She is from Southern California and visits us in NC every summer. She is going to be a senior this fall and I thought this would be a perfect time to do her senior portraits! We met up with Carla to get all dolled up and started shooting right as the sun was going down. Perfect!

Doesn't she look fantastic?! The makeup perfectly complemented her outfits and her hair looked gorgeous!

I love all the little shops downtown! They make great backdrops :)

This is my favorite image. It was taken in the window of the Elsewhere Museum on Elm Street. The museum used to be an overcrowded thrift shop and is now open as a "working museum". You can look, touch, and play with everything! Believe me, it's a one-of-a-kind place and you need to check it out :)

I mean, seriously. How cool is this place?

Check out the back of Makenna's hair! Carla did an amazing job, as always.

I love that Makenna can totally work this outfit. Gorgeous!

In LOVE with this wall. It has so much character!

After a quick change, we stopped at a field for a more country look.

Makenna, you are so beautiful!

This always makes me want to go take a nap in the grass. Until I actually go outside and it's a hundred degrees and humid. Thankfully, it wasn't too hot during our session and Makenna was such a trooper!

LOVE seeing this smile :)

Makenna, you are so stinkin' beautiful. I totally loved hanging out with you in NC and I'm hoping to come visit you all on the West coast soon! xoxo
