Sarah Collinsville Senior

Hello all my lovelies! Today is Miss Sarah's day to shine. I have been so honored to have her on my Rep team. She is such a cool cucumber, it seems like little fazes her and I love that about her. She and her mom Amy have been so helpful while being on the Rep team they are always there to provide me with ideas and so much more. Sarah has been accepted into SIUE after she graduates from high school and I know she is excited about going. She is undecided about what she wants her education to focus on but I am sure whatever she decides on will work out wonderfully for her. Thanks for being on the Rep team it was truly my pleasure taking your senior pics.  Enjoy!

Michaela Dupo Senior

OMG! What can I tell you about Michaela's senior session? Well first of all she had a wishlist of items that she wanted to incorporate into her session and she had personality traits that she wanted to focus on as well. According to her mom Dawn we hit all on Michaela's wishlist and much more. We started out our day at Willoughby Farm in Collinsville. The little farm that could is an amazing place to do pictures and they were so nice about letting us come in and tick a box on Michaela's wish list.. (pictures with a cow, lol) There are a ton of little vignettes to pose with or on and with it being the fall season we were happy to see a little pumpkin patch too. Michaela is such a country girl someone who enjoys fishing, cows and the country lifestyle, she has also been on her school's dance team forever and we had such a great time portraying all of that. Thank you Dawn and Michaela for a great time, I am so grateful that you chose me to do your senior pictures!  Enjoy!!!

McCaully Collinsville 2018 Senior

Hey there friends, wow what an exciting time for my Reps. I have 9 Reps moving on towards the future this year and I am so excited for each and every one of them. I wanted to focus on Miss McCaully today, she is such a great girl and has Ivy League aspirations. McCaully has grand plans for her future and I am so happy that she was a part of my program. What does she want to be when she grows up you may ask? Well she is going to be a surgeon and I am positive that she will make a great one. She is so strong and passionate that I think her choice of profession fits her to a tee. We had such a fun day shooting her senior pictures it was her mom Nancy, her bestie and she and I moseying around forest park taking great shots and laughing. I hope you all love these pictures I know she does!

We never found the wizard!!

We're off to see the Wizard, the Wonderful Wizard of Oz... yeah we never found him! Its our annual Halloween shoot. For those of you who follow me you all know that I always try to step it up a notch for the Halloween shoot. Just to remind you of our shoots in the past here is a little photo reminder.

Our 1950's horror movie featuring Bailee as the evil doll and Ashley as the ghost bride.

And then we did our EPIC Day of the Dead shoot. We actually tried to turn my backyard into a Mexican courtyard. 

This year we decided to do a throwback to the Wizard of Oz but we wanted to make it more modern. I am so glad we did this shoot it was hard work but man we had fun I hope you all love these pics. I think next year's Halloween shoot is going to be even more over the top so stay tuned!

Just Stevie???

Happy September Ya'll!! September is always a huge month in our household what with Brayden's birthday, my birthday and also our anniversary but I also needed to have our monthly photo shoot, see told you busy. Anyway my idea for this months shoot was to pay homage to the fantastic Stevie Nicks. You all must know Stevie... she was a member of the group Fleetwood Mac back in the day as well as an amazing solo artist. A lot of the Reps know about her because of her guest appearance on American Horror Story: Coven. I have always been a big fan of Ms. Nicks and I thought this would be a great tribute for the girls and I to do. Since this is a shoot with a boho vibe I wanted to take advantage of the gorgeous Forest Park and show off these beautiful girls. The girls were able to do a bit of research on Stevie and were able to channel her coolness in their own boho hippy vibe. I love this shoot and only wish I could share it with her greatness Stevie Nicks. Enjoy!!!!
