Andrea | Raleigh Photographer

This is my friend Andrea. Andrea had talked about how big her hair was when she brushed it out and one day last summer, she brushed it out to show me. I told her we needed to take pictures of her like that, and a few weeks ago, we finally did.
Here she is with her hair the way she usually does it--which I think looks gorgeous. Below that, you'll see the fashion-inspired shots and her big hair (equally gorgeous) : )
Andrea, you're beautiful inside and out!



















































These were taken at the end of the session, just as the sun was about to hit the horizon.

Senior Spotlight: Hannah | Raleigh High School Senior Photographer

Lovely miss Hannah is a senior at Green Hope High School. Like me, Hannah loves to find old buildings that have lots of character and I was really excited when she said she wanted to use a location like that for her session. I think the place we ended up turned out to be really great! Congratulations, Hannah--enjoy your last semester!

Priscilla | Raleigh Photographer

It's always nice when you can go out shooting with another photographer and just have fun. That's what Julie Lindsey and I did. Her niece, Priscilla, was so funny and sweet. Her look reminded me a lot of Taylor Swift (especially in the 4th photo). Actually, when I was taking some of the last ones shown in this post, she was reminding me of Hayden Panetierre. And in the second to last photo, she reminds me of Claire from Lost. By the way, imagine I'm saying "Claire" with an Australian accent, like Claire's mum : ) So, perhaps we could just agree that she's versatile? And, obviously, extremely photogenic.

So nice to meet you, Priscilla! And, Julie, looking forward to getting together again soon!
