Natalie is a friend of Carrie's (the girl in the post right below this one!) - Carrie and I wanted to go out and shoot together so she asked Natalie to be our model. We had a great time just shooting for fun - I highly suggest that every photographer do this from time to time. And yeah, since my site forces me to choose a catagory, I put Natalie under "seniors" even though she's 27 :)
Kailyn | Just your basic photo shoot!
Kailyn is my nearly 16 year old cousin-by-blood but sister-by-choice :) We just wanted to go out and have some fun. I guess that's what you do when you have a photographer in the family. I drove up Salmon Falls Drive in El Dorado Hills for about 10 mins looking for a new place to shoot. It was already 7:15pm and I was worried about the sun going down behind the hills. I was looking for this park (that I actually think is on a road that runs parallel to Salmon Falls) but found this little gem instead, tucked right off of the road. I love spontaneity in photography. We just drove and I am so pleased with how the session turned out! Kailyn humored me and let me dress her up in my clothes and accessories. She rocks the serious face!
Shelby's Senior Portraits
Shelby was such a joy to shoot. She is naturally beautiful and extremely photogenic. We did this shoot right outside of my new home in Folsom, just steps out of my front door.
