STEP One

Mood Boards

Yes, we want your dream shoot visualized and placed on a board, so we can make it come to life. Our goal is to make images that are special to you!

Using a Pinterest board you can easily piece together your vision. We want to know what you're imagining. It's your shoot let's make it feel like you. Then we can move on to step 2.

STEP Two

Dresses

We use your Pinterest mood board to source a dress that will make your images look even more incredible!

The Senior Team to me means making bonds with new girls around the area! I’ve met new girls that I’ve grown close to, Ive been able to do some really fun amazing exclusive shoots, and of course I’ve gotten THE best pictures I’ve ever seen of myself ! I highly recommend joining the Senior Team if you wanna have lots of fun, meet amazing girls, and get amazing photos !

I was slightly hesitant because I didn't think I would ever be able to model or take a solo picture and it was extremely out of my comfort zone!! What I didn't know is that it is so much more than just pictures! I remember our first shoot was a weekend trip to Charleston, and I went in not knowing the majority of the girls. But by the time I left, I had 20 new best friends that I didn't want to leave!!

I hope we have answered all your questions but if not please do not hesitate to ask!

My goals over the last 40+ years as a coach, teacher, and photographer has always been to help others become the best version of themselves. I have structured this program with that in mind. Promoting assertiveness, praising effort over outcome, and helping teens develop positive self-talk, while modeling with the confidence to achieve the ultimate goal of increasing self-worth and encouraging other opportunities that promote self-improvement. 

As a former 11th & 12 grade teacher, I know that this program really can help teens in multiple ways that will impact them positively throughout their life. 

At my studio, everything we do is about helping others realize their potential.   

Thank you
