meet sofie, she is strong! sofie strong. : ) she is fighting cancer and going to beat it! i am hoping that these pics brighten her day as she goes through a round of chemo this week. she is full of spunk and knows what she wants in the world. this was a super fun shoot for sofie’s comp card with Directions USA Model & Artist Management. Kyra Dorma was the stylist and Sofie’s aunt, cousin and nona were her entourage. cheers to you miss sofie!

have been photographing this little beauty for a few years. she has really come into her own since our last shoot. it is beautiful to see this little girl blossom into a strong, funny and confident tween on our shoot for her modeling comp card with directions usa.

remember that sassy girl in the sunglasses from my 50’s styled whitebox senior model shoot? well here she is at her senior portrait session. emily is such a great girl! she has already been accepted to college and will be able to carry on with her love of gymnastics at the college level. i am so excited for her as she takes it to the next level!

this is the 7th year i have photographed this beautiful family.  it is such a pleasure to see the girls each year and to see what they are interested in this year and how they have changed.  the “baby” is now in first grade and the oldest is making the turn from little girl to tween.  at the end of the shoot i took the girls for ice cream and we got to hang out for a bit.  these kids have become part of my life after watching them grow into lovely young ladies over the past 7 years!

mekensie is a natural beauty.  she looks gorgeous in a sun dress and she is completely at home in her cammo.  she laughs easily and sweetly, but she is comfortable commanding a big horse, slinging a shot gun and playing sports too!

these girls were amazing!  they embodied the spirit and style of the 50’s.  the red muscle cars, the drive in restaurant, the amazing retro hair, make-up and styling…..it all came together to make this one of my favorite senior model fashion shoots yet!  thank you @carlawhitebeauty!
