Whimsical Senior Photoshoot- from fern goddess to fashion queen

Winter in the Summer with Autumn

Oh, honestly, her name is Winter, I’m Autumn, like I wasn’t going to crack some tiny joke about how perfectly paired and ironic this all was. haha

Ok, so back to how stunning and sweet our Senior client was (and her mom too- oh my gosh, all us girls had so much fun together on this shoot!) They nailed all 4 of her looks, I helped a little with the wardrobe suggestions, but they came packing bags, all glammed up and ready! I love that she rocked EVERY style SO perfectly- whimsical, a little grunge, glam, playful.

This is why our Couture Collection will always be my fav that we offer. We all have more than 1 personality inside of us, different sides to who we are, or maybe who we want to be, and it’s SO fun to show off all that diversity in a shoot. If you have NO idea what speaks to you, we have a Style Guide that’s pretty helpful too!

Winter’s shoot was filled with dress twirling, coffee, back city alleys, and splashing in the river. And tall, tan beauty that I’m a little jealous of, but I tried to not let it show too much. ;) If you want professional, model worthy portraits taken we can do that. If you want a day you’ll never forget- THAT’S what we specialize in.

Take a peek at the WHOLE experience below!

And if it EVER snows here in Michigan Winter will be coming back for a jaw dropping session in, yes, you guessed it, the Winter. Last joke, I’m done. But btw I can do this because her and I discussed how silly it is every time someone says a seasonal joke to us, like we had NEVER heard it before. haha So I earned the right.

Elise- Port Huron Highschool Senior Session

Senior Session showcasing Dance, Singing,
and Color Guard Talents

Ethereal and Retro Style Senior Shoot
in downtown Port Huron

   I like to think we all have a secret “us” hiding inside,
waiting for the world to either accept us,
or waiting for us to accept it’s time for the world to meet us!
Meet Elise, this is her AJBC story.

   The first time I met Elise she was a cute Senior about to graduate, what some may call shy, but ever so sweet.
   We planned her shoot around her many talents- dance, color guard, photography, and singing. Not many people could have a shoot that encompassed so many beautiful and expressive talents, but Elise is honestly probably hiding more.
   The day came and we started out with more outfits than you can imagine! They FILLED the studio. Dance costumes from recitals, gowns, fashionable pieces, jewelry passed down from family, yards and yards of fabric and fun props. You could tell we weren’t just about to photograph a Senior, she was about to put on a live show for us, and that she did.
   Our first look was pointe, and to be honest, we photographed this look on a back dirt road, partially in a ditch.  We let the dust settle and then… Elise began to flow. Her body was calm yet precise and it was beautiful to watch.
   Next we headed downtown where she took what many would look at as a basic flag and turned it into visual art. But this is where we saw this inner fierceness come alive! Pure magic!
   After that we played it a bit more low key, cute city girl look in a coffee shop. We did some fun hair whips, got some drinks, and captured her sweet side, for sure.
   Lastly we headed back to the studio where Elise boldly rocked this red sequined gown, while looking ever so timeless. I’ve never seen someone morph so effortlessly, so flawlessy.

   Elise, all these characters you rock, that fire you hold deep in you, let them rage, lady!

Forest Fairy Photoshoot

Woman creates art with her movement during this Dance Photoshoot

Whimsical Beauty tucked away in the forest

   Barefoot and beautiful, walking through the crunched up Fall leaves and the dried Spring mud. It’s a whimsical, natural type of beauty we’re about to capture.
   Next on Pointe and running with tule, Kayla creates art through her movement and dance. Watching her flow, unplanned choreography is like watching water flow.
   The whole shoot reminds you of a stunning little forest fairy hopping around the forest ground. The trees folded to make perfect tunnels and the road turning up the hill made for a more modern version.

   I love shoots like these… natural, gorgeous, a bit over the top! Take this experience to celebrate yourself with flowers in your hair, jumping off rocks, dancing in the middle of the road.

   Kayla is lucky enough to own her own company where she literally gets to be a fairytale princess every day… no… really…. you can have Cinderella come to your birthday party and secretly, it’s Kayla, but ssshhh, don’t tell anyone. How fun of a life is that!? She's also a professional Dancer. This was to be a mature yet innocent and wondrous blend of both of those worlds- truly reflecting who she is.
