ayah : omaha senior portraits

I know, I know, this poor neglected blog! But how can you sit down and blog when you have something like this trying to close the computer so you'll play with her??

RIGHT?

I'm trying to get caught up and get some newer stuff up here - she's started taking one LONG nap, so hopefully I'll be able to shower, clean, do laundry, and get some blogging time in during those periods, instead of having to pick and choose.

I thought I'd start with some senior pictures.

Now, the interesting thing about Ayah is that she doesn't think she's photogenic.


She's insane, right?? Gorgeous girl! And wonderful, intelligent young woman. You'll probably see her managing a band one of these days.



And she definitely has the BEST faces.







FAVE FAVE FAVE. I love this one.

madison : 8th grade graduation

Remember a while ago I wrote about getting to speak to that 8th grade class about photography? A couple weeks ago, I got to take pictures for Madison, one of the young ladies who won a portrait session by completing an essay for the class. She is ADORABLE. She brought her two best friends - one of them is her cousin - with her to keep her laughing, and we made sure to get some pictures of the three of them.

But we started with Madison.


How gorgeous is this girl? Amazing eyes, perfect features.






Some pictures of the girls being silly together...picture perfect friendship.




The one on the left is the cover of their country album; the one on the right is the cover of their all-girl pop group album.





Back to Madison!




Team City Crew, holla!


On the right; yet another favorite. Love that blue!




Something about this one is a favorite. The colors? The SMIZING she's doing? Tyra would love it.


But I can't decide between color and this cool blue toned one.


What do you think?


Another fave. The sunflare, the hair, the tilt-shift....I love it all.


We ended the day, just before it got too dark to continue, with a couple more pictures of the three of them doing exactly what I imagine I'd do in a picture with my friends if I was 14.




And with that, I say "Peace Out."

Do they still say that?
