Gah! I’m so happy to share this beautiful young lady with all of you! I was so thrilled with Samantha’s mom messaged me about scheduling her senior session. I was lucky enough to get to do her older sister, Maddie’s, senior portraits a couple of years ago. It seems crazy how quickly that time zipped by! But here we are sharing Sam’s session with all of you!

Samantha is one of my lovely LSA senior ladies. I love how active my seniors tend to be. Samantha is one of the gorgeous girls on the LSA cheerleading team. But her athletic abilities don’t stop there – she’s also on the LSA soccer team and takes part in dance through the Decatur Park District. We can’t leave out that she’s also a member of student government and SADD. That makes for a pretty busy schedule. She’s such a sweet soul, super loving and funny and kind. And I had a lot of fun spending time with her!

I met Sammie and her family out at Rock Springs park on a beautiful September evening. Just like with Maddie’s session, we started Sam’s session with some sibling photos with her sister and brother. These three kids are incredibly good looking and make my job so easy! I mean, all three of them have brilliant bright blue eyes, dazzling smiles, and stunning features!

After the sibling shots, we focused on Sam’s individual portraits. I loved that Sam wanted to include her pet turtle, Fred, in her senior portraits too. He was one of the most active little turtles I’ve ever seen and he did great in his portraits! We got to do three different fun outfits at different spots around the park. And we finished the session with her prom dress from last year! And oh man! I’m so glad she brought it! It was one of the prettiest prom dresses I’ve ever seen and it was so fun creating something fun and unique for her with her awesome dress.

Enough of my chatter! Here are a few of their favorites from Sarah’s senior session!
