As soon as Halle and I met, I could tell it was going to be a great session! Halle is poised, quiet, and full of class! I loved how inspired she was through dance and music she embraced both of them fully! Each dance pose was executed with precision, the way she carried herself and played her violin, showed both her confidence and sweetness! This senior girl shined through with each click of the camera!

I thought I would spend some time talking about how I work with Seniors today. When a photo session is booked, I spend weeks planning and setting up for their photo session. I send some inspiration photos to help them prepare their look and confidence during our photo session, so by the time they get to the location they know what to expect and have great ideas that personalize their images. When we arrive and start, the creativity unfolds and we let light, the surroundings, and the mood dictate how the images are captured! It is just as fun for me to see the final results, as it is for the model! My high school seniors are involved in choosing their images for their package out of 100 photos and sessions can run up to 2 hours! Time seems like it goes so fast even while we take time at each background.

For this urban senior session, we went downtown Phoenix, Arizona and looked for places that were unique and fun! I love the color of this brick wall and the cool tones of the old bay door, the rundown look and her classic violin provided just the contrast we were looking for in her big city session!

With only weeks to graduate from Chandler High, Halle is going places and she is determined to live out her dreams! For more of Halle’s senior pictures click on this link: http://simplysagephotographyjenn.pixieset.com/halleclassof2016/
