There are not many things in this world today that everyone will understand, such as language, dialect, and culture, with that being said there is one thing that that doesn’t matter what language you speak, or where you are from, one thing that unites us and one thing that is universal, that one thing is photography. Photography is one of the greatest forms of art in today’s world, it not only brings us together, but it tells a story, and allows us to see the world through someone else’s perspective.

I loved working with Alexa because we really took the time to get to planning and styling. One of the biggest suggestions I recommend to my high school seniors is to sit down and really think about outfits that fit well and will look beautiful with the locations you’ve chosen.

My favorite part of Alli’s senior photo session was the massive amounts of laughing we had throughout the entire sesh. I was super excited to start planning Alli’s senior pictures with her, and I was happy to hear she wanted all things farm related but not over the top.

I love when I get to take pictures of the second senior in a family. It’s always fun getting to know their personality and see how each sibling is different but in so many ways the same as their older sibling. Kyle is for sure different than his older sister, Madison and getting to know him through his senior portrait session was so much fun.

One of my absolute favorite parts of photographing senior portrait sessions is getting to know the high school seniors. I love hearing all of their fears, excitements, trials and triumphs or their upcoming senior year. Sometimes it’s nice to be reminded what seniors have to go through versus what I went through my senior year. I can remember, for myself, my senior year my biggest concern was prom and if my besties were in my classes so we could plan free periods around our gossip. Today, seniors have so many more things on their plate and with all of the restrictions, it’s sometimes scary and overwhelming!

When I first started doing photography, I had no clue who I wanted to photography, I was like everyone else in this world, just enjoying getting to get out and go take pictures. But after almost seven years in business, I’ve found what I love the most! I found my passion is with high school seniors and capturing their stories.

Devin was a senior at Wilber-Clatonia High School here in Nebraska and is the funniest kid I’ve chatted with. He’s such a hard working teen and I have no doubt he’ll go on to do great things in the future.

For Devin’s senior session we wanted to include all things outdoors and farming related! He’s grown up in an agricultural community and high lighting the things he loves doing is exactly the perfect way to capture his senior year.
