Elizabeth: Class of 2011 | Laconia, NH Senior Photos

I had such a great time in Laco­nia shoo­ting Alex’s senior pho­tos. I was sur­pri­sed and gra­te­ful when I got a call from a friend of Alex’s mom, whose daugh­ter Eli­za­beth was also a senior. I hea­ded back up to Laco­nia and pic­ked Eli­za­beth up at her house. We went into town and enjo­yed the lovely fall day.

She’s so natu­ral and at ease! And not afraid of heights ;)

She told me she pre­fe­rred spring to fall and wished she could have her senior pho­tos with some awe­some flo­wers. Well, it might not be spring, but we were able to find some awe­some flo­wers! :)

And then we drove to a field in the middle of nowhere (that I found out later was across the street from an upco­ming bride & grooms house, hi Lau­ren & Pat!) The colors were just star­ting to be brilliant.

Mad mace skills!

Thanks Eli­za­beth!

Bethany W: Class of 2011 | Newcastle, NH Senior Photos

Bethany is a beau­ti­ful girl full of great cha­risma and enthu­siasm! I met up with her, her father & sis­ter at Great Island Com­mon in New Castle on a Satur­day mor­ning in Sep­tem­ber to get those ‘pesky’ year­book pho­tos out of the way. The weather was per­fect and we had a great time wan­de­ring around the island and using some ANTM poses :)

Fierce!

I’m sooooo funny some­ti­mes ;)

Thanks Bethany for allo­wing me the pri­vi­lege of taking your pho­tos! I hope senior year is trea­ting you well!

Ryan: Class of 2011 | Hampton, NH Yearbook Photos

Ryan’s mom Eileen called me ear­lier in the sum­mer to sche­dule senior pic­tu­res for her son Ryan. She’s also the mother of the beau­ti­ful Liz: Class of 2009!

After a few weather mishaps we finally met at the beach on an early Tues­day mor­ning for our shoot. Ryan didn’t seem the sligh­test bit dis­grunt­led that we’d got­ten him out of bed super early in the last few days of sum­mer freedom.

Eileen drove us up the coast a bit — it was kind of nice having a chauf­feur :)

My brief time with Ryan left me with the impres­sion that he was an easy going, per­so­na­ble, res­pect­ful young adult — very much like his older sis­ter. Many kudos to them and their parents!

I hope the last half of senior year is going smoothly! Thanks for waking up for our adventure!

Hello Melissa — The pho­tos are beau­ti­ful, lots to choose from! Thanks again we are thri­lled. ~Eileen

Alex: Class of 2011 | Laconia, NH Senior Photography

Alex, Alex, Alex. The first time I met you you were maybe 11 — - and now you’re con­que­ring senior year with ease. You’re sin­gle han­dedly brin­ging back the fedora, and you’re con­fi­dent and kind. You play a mean trum­pet and you’re almost gra­dua­ted!… well nearly almost :)

A few with out the fedora…

And my two favo­ri­tes from the session!

Thanks for han­ging out and sho­wing me around town Alex. Best of luck to you!

David: Class of 2011

I love senior por­traits, with the excep­tion of every year they’re the same age and I’m another year older! David is Sarah’s nephew and was the first of my class of ’11 seniors. Soft spo­ken and kind. Very chi­val­rous. An all around good to know kinda guy! We met at Swa­sey Park­way and wan­de­red (ok, they wan­de­red, I hob­bled in my then upgra­ded air cast) around to cap­ture some year­book photos!

Con­gra­tu­la­tions David, you’re 12 way through senior year! Hope it’s been good so far! :)

Sarah’s Senior Photos 10.09.09

Sarah’s dad won her senior photo ses­sion through a door prize I dona­ted to the Exe­ter Cham­ber when I first became a mem­ber. I met her and her mom in down­town Exe­ter and she chauf­feu­red us around to a few great fall loca­tions we’d both scou­ted out. 

Sarah just exu­des con­fi­dence — I think she should be a super model.

Bring it in tight! 

I love shoo­ting wtih 2 came­ras set up with dif­fe­rent len­ses. Two totally dif­fe­rent fee­lings with out either of us moving an inch. 

I like the chauf­feu­red life! Thanks Sarah & mom for a great tour of our town!

Jahnna’s Senior Photos 10.04.09

I first met Jahnna at her mom — Heather - & Dave’s wed­ding and was super exci­ted when Heather emai­led and asked if I’d be willing to shoot Jahnna’s senior photos. 

Willing?! Hono­red is more like it! I made the trip up to Laco­nia on a beau­ti­ful Sun­day after­noon and this gor­geous senior worked.it.out.

So fabu­lous! I love the hat, and the flo­wer, and the sass!

Jahnna — I hope your senior year was everything you hoped it would be and more!
