How do I make every session personalized to the senior? I get this question pretty often, since I photograph lots of seniors every year, and there are usually a few who wonder if their photos will look too similar to their classmate or friend. I work really hard to ensure that your session is about YOU, and although some locations or ideas may be similar, every session has it’s own flair! Working with this particular senior was an absolute joy. From the moment we began the session, Izzy’s enthusiasm and energy were contagious. She shared with me that she had no worries or concerns about the session, which made it even more rewarding to see her truly enjoying every moment. She loved the variety of fun locations we explored and how each outfit perfectly complemented the backdrop, making the experience just about perfect!
Izzy is a remarkable young woman who describes herself as smart, kind, and yes, busy…a reflection of her dedication to school, her friends, and her passion for photography. Although she didn’t participate in many high school extracurriculars, she found her true calling at the Iowa Central Career Academy, where she pursued photography with great enthusiasm. Despite not enjoying most school subjects, photography classes captivated her, revealing her creative side and future aspirations (which I am a little biased to!). During our session, I also learned that she looks up to her mom and best friend. Her mom is her role model, offering unwavering support and guidance, while her best friend, despite living an hour away, remains a constant source of companionship and fun. This sweet girl has learned valuable lessons during high school, including the importance of ignoring negativity and staying true to herself (something that I myself am still learning as an adult!). This mindset has helped her navigate challenges and enjoy her high school years to the fullest.
Her dream is to pursue photography professionally. The love for capturing moments and expressing herself through images is evident, and she plans to travel the world, camera in hand, documenting her adventures. She's passionate about encouraging others and being there for her friends, and she’s demonstrated what a leader she is.
Her favorite quote, "If you believe in yourself, anything is possible," perfectly encapsulates her outlook on life. She believes in her potential and is determined to pursue her dreams with confidence and enthusiasm. I just know that her future will be filled with incredible experiences, and I am honored to have been part of her journey. Enjoy her stunning senior session!
