One thing I highly enjoy about working with youth is that they want to have bomb a** photos to show off and they love being the first to try something different when it comes to their senior portraits.
I always want my seniors to push past their boundaries, especially with fashion. I love fashion myself and love seeing images that are different than the rest. 
Last weekend I went to a conference in Chicago and along with other photographers who are also fashion forward types, we worked with young models on just what we love...fashion! and also unique poses, again breaking out the norm is what sets my passionate heart on fire.  Love seeing my poses come to life, it's one thing to imagine them but to be able to document them is even better. 
Enjoy some of the images from my time in Chicago and I hope to help my seniors branch out more and try this for themselves!
P.S. I bought the black leather jacket for myself, lol, had to have it!

I without a coubt live for the summer! This is my crazy 4 month span that I take soooo many senior portraits and meet so many amazing kiddos. They come from all over and I'm always thrilled that they choose me from the sea of photographers all around them.
Enjoy some of my recents :)

I may work non-stop every night in the summer heat but when you get to work with amazing people, you love doing it and plus, I get a really good tan every summer. win win
Enjoy my first senior rep picture event!
