Janelle is my littlest sister. She is the baby of the family and a whopping 12 years younger than me. She is only going to be a junior this year but I decided I would take her out for a “mock senior session”. Janelle has an affliction we like to call “fake-smile-itis” and it can be a horrifying disease. All my siblings have it and I know we are not the only ones. Janelle’s session was a great lesson in how amazing a REAL smile can be. I totally welcome a friend coming along with you to your senior session. It can really help in getting real smiles and easing those nerves. Please note I welcome a friend, not a posse. That’s just way too many people for you to try to impress!
For Janelle’s session, we went to an interesting “antique” store. A five acre store. It had all kinds of vehicles, signs, and randomness. It made for some great pictures and she was such a trooper for dealing with the make-your-hair-curl-up humidity that day. We also went walking around a trendy suburb and found all kinds of great places for photos. Here are some of my favorites from the day. I had a really hard limiting myself to two… so I didn’t:
Most of my high school senior bookings will start being made in the spring, but if you know your schedule and are ready to book now, let me know! I will also be in Algona, IA for a week of senior sessions as well. I haven’t set the dates yet, but if you would like to be notified when dates are announced, please contact me and I will put you on the mailing list. Enjoy these last few weeks of summer!
