Congratulations on your last year of High School Kathan!  This is a very exciting time for you and I wish you all the best as you pursue your goals and dreams.
And thank you for choosing me to photograph this special time in your life; they will become heirlooms you’ll look back on one day with much happiness; filled with memories.
Good luck Kathan ~ enjoy the ride!

Irina discovered my work online and I’m so glad she found me!  What a special treat to photograph a beautiful conductor!  When I first spoke with her, I was mesmerized by her delightful accent and when I finally met her, she took my breath away; that smile!  She has a wonderful balance of whimsy and professionalism which easily came through in her photos.  I wonder which one she’ll choose for her website…fun and flirty or provocative and bold.  We’ll see!

Wow, after photographing just one Senior and posting a few of them on Facebook, suddenly I was the talk of the town!  :)
Mom’s love my style of photography how it’s all done in natural settings vs. studio backdrops and lighting and how comfortable they’ve felt around me in the process.  That makes me really happy because I know how hard it is to open up in front of the camera and then to try to ‘be yourself’ while someone you just met is  ‘shooting’ at you.  It’s  really humbling….is that the right word?  It’s just awkward.  For me anyways.  But when you look at these pictures…no one looks awkward; in fact they look completely at ease, relaxed, and are revealing their individuality beautifully.  I know that comes across because I’m relaxed and easy going myself…fun and comfortable…like you’re favorite comfy shoes. :)   This is such a fun and exciting time for them and I’m so glad to be able to let OUR time together be fun for them too while getting an heirloom that they’ll be able to share for their lifetime.  To be remembered truly as themselves with a little artistic vision to complete the look.  Gone are the days of the straight on, deer in headlights look with a flat boring backdrop and flat lighting.  Thank Goodness! :)
