Ryan: Senior 2010

August 14, 2009

J. Crew photo shoot or High School Senior session?  Well, if you read the post below, you know Ryan’s going to be a senior this year, but he totally rocked this session so much, it may as well have been a magazine shoot!  Ryan is my cousin… isn’t he cute?  We totally look alike, don’t we?  Actually, Ryan looks exactly like his dad in quite a few of the shots I took, and Ryan’s MOM is my mother’s sister, so if you’re following me on this one, Ryan and I don’t look anything alike.  Maybe our teeth a little… and I’ve never seen his toes.  My mothers family all have the same toes, so it’s possible our toes match….

Ryan, his mom, and my super fun other cousin Kayd, met me at Minnehaha Falls Park one evening a few weeks ago so we could tool around the park for some great shot variety and fantastic evening light.  The weather was perfect and Ryan was a good sport, despite all the embarrassing and annoying things us ladies asked him to do.  I think it’s even possible he may have enjoyed himself a little , judging by all the smiles!  Either that, or I’m just really hilarious… I’m hoping for a little of both.  :)

While I’m on a posting spree, here’s just a quick peak at my most recent session with Ryan, a hockey and soccer extraordinaire and soon-to-be senior at Academy of Holy Angels.  We had to wait for multiple bunches of runners to pass by to snap this shot….Ryan was definitely a good sport!  :)

Erinn: Senior 2010

August 10, 2009

  Erinn will be a senior this year at Crandon High School, so when we took a drive up to Northern WI a few weeks ago to visit with family, she asked me to do a quicky session to commemorate her last year.  Erinn is my hubby’s cousin, so not only do I know how fantastic she is, but I’m also fortunate enough to know how fantastic her grandparent’s homestead is, so jumped at the chance to do a shoot on their property!  It makes me happy to know that she’ll always remember her grandparents and memories of her childhood when she looks back at her senior photos for years to come.  Plus, it was a way fun adventure! I had so much fun making Erinn trek around with me through weeds, wood piles, raspberry gardens, and mosquitoes - and since I had her smiling and laughing the whole time, I think she had fun too!

Erinn, have a fantastic senior year; I can’t wait to see what you do in life – you’re destined for greatness!!!
