I photographed Payton in late fall, at her family’s home, which ended up being an absolutely incredible location. The sun and scenery really worked to our advantage! As a straight-haired girl my entire life, I think I probably told Payton about six hundred times, “I love your hair!” We were working on a somewhat chilly evening but Payton never let on she was cold, she had a great smile the whole time and a beautiful “serious face,” as well. Best of luck to you, Payton, as you enter 2012 and look forward to graduation!

Payton – Northfield, MN High School Senior Portraits
Sunday, January 8th, 2012Elle – Northfield High School Senior, Class of 2012
Wednesday, December 28th, 2011What better way to brighten a dreary December day than to look back on portraits taken in August? I photographed Elle in Northfield, MN for her senior portraits on a beautiful summer evening. She was incredible in front of the camera – such a gorgeous smile! Toward the end of her session we went to the soccer fields to photograph her in more dramatic light. She will be playing soccer for the University of Minnesota next year and wanted some senior pictures of her in some U of M gear! Loved the colors of the sky in those. Good luck with the rest of your senior year, Elle!
Anna – Maple Grove Senior High School – Senior Portraits
Saturday, December 3rd, 2011Anna’s aunt is a friend of mine, and when I was looking for a model last year to be a guinea pig for portraits taken at the Minnesota State Fair, she offered her niece! Anna, her mom and Anna’s friend Mike met me at the fair and we had a fun night of photography among the crowds and lights. Fast forward to this year and Anna is a senior at Maple Grove Senior High school and needed her senior portraits done! It was so good to see them all again, they traveled to Northfield and we used one of my favorite fields as a background.
Best of luck, Anna, as you head into 2012 and your last year of high school!
Lauren, Cretin-Derham Hall Class of 2012 – St. Paul, MN Senior Portrait Photographer
Tuesday, November 15th, 2011I photographed Lauren on an absolutely beautiful evening in Minneapolis. She has an incredible, natural smile that just shined for the camera (not even a Segway tour going on twenty feet from where we were working ruffled her!), and we were fortunate enough to capture some of fall’s last glorious color. Thank you, Lauren, for choosing me for your senior portraits, best of luck the rest of the year!
