Hannah is one sharp and poised senior — and so easy to photograph! We had a ball shooting all around Downtown Grand Rapids. Thank you for letting me be part of your senior year, and good luck next year at GVSU!

One of my favorite things is when girls from out of state contact me for senior pictures. Beautiful Isabelle from Neuqua Valley High School in Illinois found me on Seniorologie and decided to have me meet her family in Grand Haven, MI for a lakeside senior session. Congratulations on your graduation from NVHS, and good luck next fall at New York University!

Mackenzie’s senior session landed on the LAST day of summer break. What a great way for me to wrap up summer shooting in 2015! You’re beautiful, girl! Thanks for letting me be a part of your senior year memories, and congratulations on your graduation from Grand Rapids Christian High School!

Emma’s senior session is special to me. Not only have I known her since she was the cutest little girl in preschool, but years ago, Emma was the first young lady that I photographed professionally! If it were not for Emma, I might not be a photographer today! Emma is amazing in so many ways— achieving the top academic awards and competing for the state girls’ tennis championship team! Congratulations on your graduation from Grand Rapids Christian High School, and blessings to you as you head off to the University of Michigan in the fall!

Carlie is a triple-threat— beauty, brains and… basketball! Carlie is the starting point guard on Caledonia’s championship basketball team. She’s a leader on the court and will be a leader in life! Thank you so much for letting me be part of your senior year!

On many occasions, I’ve worked with girls and their horses on photoshoots. I’m always amazed at the hard work and dedication these ladies put in to mastering their sport, and at the special connection between horse and rider. Maureen is one of these incredible young ladies. Congratulations on your graduation from East Grand Rapids High School, and good luck at University of Louisville in the fall!

I have been blessed to work with many wonderful senior girls, but some are a particular delight. Tori and her mom, Vicky, were so fantastic (and fun) to photograph! What kind and beautiful hearts they both have— and Tori’s inner beauty shines through in her photos for sure!

Bailey’s session was one of those gifts that all photographers wish for. Amazing sense for fashion and a total natural in front of the lens! Congratulations on your graduation from East Kentwood High School and good luck at Michigan State University in the fall!

Malea is an amazing, record-setting track star— state finalist in the 800m relay! I like to imagine that I will be watching Malea in the Olympics one day, and that will be my little brush with fame! Congratulations on your graduation from Grand Haven High School and good luck tearing up the track in the fall!

A sure-fire finalist for most fashionable senior session this year! Chloe has French-inspired style down pat! What variety— what drama— what gorgeousness! Thank you for letting me be a part of your senior year!

What an incredible young woman from an amazing family! Lili is a ballet dancer and brilliant student, and her parents are both leaders in Grand Rapids’ medical and scientific community. Talk about talent! Lili, I know you’ll do amazing things next fall at The University of Michigan! Congratulations on your graduation from Forest Hills Northern High School!

Sammi was a real joy to photograph last summer— she has amazing style and is poised beyond her years. And those eyes! Congratulations on your graduation, and best of luck next year at Grand Valley State University!
