Meet Erin. She is Chad's beautiful, athletic, intelligent cousin who graduated a semester early from her central-Illinois high school, Prairie Central. You'd never know by looking at these photos, but her Senior Session on the farm was SUPER cold with biting winds pulling the temp down to 17°F. Check out her Session highlights and read a little more about why we love this girl.
Read MoreIt was so great to meet Alexa! She's a senior at Athens Drive High School with a never-ending smile and a fun personality. We loved hearing about her involvement in school activities and sports. Alexa is an avid lacrosse player for her school as well as for a traveling team. Although she was very humble and didn't share many accolades, I just found an article about her online from earlier this year that named her as a 2014 US Lacrosse Academic All-American! Alexa, you're the real deal—congratulations!
A couple weeks ago, we went to Historic Oak View County Park for her beautiful Senior Session, which happened to be surrounded by lush fall colors. I especially love the set of images captured in the cotton field—so pretty! I'm excited to share these highlights from her Session below.

Read MoreWhen I got together with Sydney and her Mom at Fresca Cafe & Gelato not too long ago, I immediately fell in love with Sydney's fun-loving personality. She was so easy to chat with and her warm laughter made me smile right along with her. As we got to know each other, I became more and more excited about the ideas Sydney had for her Senior Session, but more than that—I was so drawn to things that make Sydney who she is.
I hope you enjoy her story and Session highlights...

The first thing most people notice about Derek is that he is 6'6" tall. (DEFinitely the first thing I noticed when we met!) But as we got to know him, it was very clear that this St. Catherine's High School (Racine, WI) senior is more than just "a tall guy." I wanted to use this story to tell you about a few things you may not know about Derek from first glance.
I hope you enjoy these photo highlights as you read Derek's story...

We enjoyed this Senior Session over the fall that included all of her hobbies.
I hope you enjoy these photo highlights as you read Brittany's story...

Brooke is counting the days until she heads out to Minnesota State University in the fall, but until then, she's just looking forward to the completion of all of her IB testing!
