2018 SENIOR JOEL Mr. Brown Eyes, Gearhead, “Brother Joel” as he is loving called by his sister, Annie. This guy is a hoot. The Heinzmann's are one of my favorite families. Three kids graduating in three consecutive years, I can’t even imagine the busy that existed in...
2018 SENIOR COOPER Cooper might have more style in his pinky finger than every B-list wannabe Tom Cruise actor type. The aviator, straight up ‘Maverick” shades weren’t a planned part of Cooper’s wardrobe. However... as soon as I saw them on the dashboard of his one...
2018 SENIOR CORY Let’s face it. These last weeks prior to graduation are an absolute mess of events crammed into a very short time. Concerts, Banquets, Recitals, Sporting Events, Lasts of All the Things, not to mention... School, Finals, Receptions. It’s a never...
2018 SENIOR TYLER Tyler’s session was the kind of night I so wish I could simply cue up on demand. It was stellar weather, by late September standards, and left us with the kind of sky that looked like an overly filtered Instagram post. Except* in live and in living...
2018 SENIORCORBINTriple the photos, Triple the fun! Harrington 3/3. If you’ve followed any of the recent coverage of the Duke and Dutchess of Cambridge’s newest arrival, you’ve probably heard the new-again father’s answer to this question “How does it feel to be a...
2018 SENIORMITCHSenior Week might be over but I still have quite a few amazing Seniors to highlight before graduation! Mitch is up next. This Pius X grad is #12 under the lights and this number became a bit of a theme during our session, popping up in fairly strange...
2018 SENIORNATESenior Week continues with Nate! He is one of those ‘completely comfortable in front of the lens’ types and made the job of capturing his seniors just an absolute ton of fun. Really, it is just difficult to not have a good time when you’re around Nate....
2018 SENIOR GRANT Five minutes into his session consultation, I knew that Grant was a guy I was really going to enjoy working with. He is driven, possesses some crazy bright determination, and has lofty goals ahead of him that I have no doubt he will accomplish. He’s...
2018 SENIOR JAKOB Let’s hear it for the boys! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve met with senior guys and they are really not sure what to think about this whole process. Some of my clients are nervous about the aspect of being photographed, but many are just...
2018 SENIOR SAM One of the great joys I find in this profession is when I get to create for dear friends. I always love to hear my clients’ reactions to their portraits, but when I am able to see and experience that reaction first hand, its just super special. Sam’s...
2018 SENIOR MICHAEL During my senior consultations, I often ask my clients if they have any hobbies or interests they are hoping to incorporate into their session. Sometimes the answer is yes, but most often the answer is a hesitant ‘maybe,’ followed by an ‘if it...
2018 SENIOR JOE A few fun facts about Joe. He is a stud on and off the court. You would be jealous of his shoe collection. He knows secret ways into buildings. I first met him when he was four, and his smile is still the same. This same smile can charm a camp director...
Looking for someone specific?
After 10+ years of capturing portraits, I can count on one hand the number of times someone has said ‘I LOVE to be photographed!’ ONE. HAND. Letting someone photograph you can be a pretty vulnerable thing. And making my subjects feel comfortable is always my number one priority. We ALL have something we don’t love about ourselves, and we ALL are our OWN worst critic. It’s my job to guide you through these concerns to create a portrait that leaves you feeling sincere, inspired and confident!
