Sometimes I get an idea in my head and I just cannot get it out! I run past this house several times a month, and each time I’ve thought about how great it would be to do a Christmas session in front of it. The pink of the house is not a normal Christmas color, […]

I’ve had this sheet ghost creative shoot in my head for about a year! But finding the time + energy to make a creative shoot happen can be sort of daunting. I had another group session get rescheduled and saw my opening — opened up the model call and got some really fun girls with […]

Photographing senior portraits in NYC is a dream that nudged its way into my thinking a couple of years ago. I knew it would epic, full of incredible images and oh-so-fun, but it also made me nervous. I’d been to NYC before, but it’s been years and never have I taken clients there. It was […]

Each year, Providence Canyon is the highlight of the season! Its incredibly “fall” looking and such a different environment all together than what is normal for “South Georgia”. Choosing this session always allows my SMT members to really get outside their comfort zone and jump right in to the canyon vibe! Providence Canyon is also […]

Every year, I challenge myself to decide on locations for my seniors that are outside the box + adventurous. I’ve driven through and vacationed near Atlantic Beach for over half my life and finally decided it was time to bring my SMT girls there! We. Had. A. Blast. The murals, the little flowers, the architecture, […]

Taking the girls to the beach is always the most attended Senior Model Team (SMT) session of the season! When it comes to a destination session, sand, surf and swishy dresses top the list of what’s needed to make it a success. Add in some sun hats, beach waves in their hair and a killer […]

The Savannah SMT Group Shoot has been a staple in the rotation for a few years, and each year, I love it more and more! Its my recommendation to Savannah in the winter for a few reasons: the temperature is usually pretty mild in January (no one was sweating to death!), the crowd levels are […]

Senior pictures at Disney’s Magic Kingdom? No-brainer, right? After a six year hiatus, I finally made it back to the MK for a senior shoot! ⁠I wanted to make this shoot happen for the 2021 SMT season, but the “you know what” stopped that, and then the masks made it impossible the next year… so […]

Ansley’s senior session experience went from sweet to salty to editorial to southern… and tons of variations of each mood!  That’s what happens when your senior year is documented beautifully (and FULLY)!!  We began in June at the Meet and Greet event at Quail Branch Lodge and then had adventures at Jekyll Island Resort, downtown […]

Want to see what a senior year documented beautifully (and FULLY) can look like?  Meet Chesley — 2022SMT member!  She had several location, outfit + hair and makeup changes during her individual session, which gave her a ton of variety right at the start!  Then as we went through each group session, her gallery became […]
