Meet Jared Part 1 | Senior Rep

Jared had his senior session last week!  I am so happy to be getting all of my reps in – it’s so amazing to be working with these kids.  So Jared is a lifeguard at Camp Sherwin in Lake City PA.  He knew of a secluded beach right at the camp that was absolutely stunning.  So we started at camp super casual.  We had to climb down this crazy staircase made of old wood to get down there, and if you know anything about me it’s that I’m not graceful at all.  It was a bit scary, but 100% worth it.  There were a few trees that lined the beach and some cool slate rock steps.  We even climbed up the side of a cliff to grab a few higher shots.  After we had gotten about halfway through his session we decided to take a 5 minute ride down the road to Avonia Park.  It’s right on the lake and there is a gorgeous little set up to watch the sunset from.  We walked around there for a more formal feel and I think we nailed it! Take a look at some of my favorites 🙂

Meet Emma PART 2 | Senior Rep

We really packed in a trip during Emma’s senior session last week! WE had 2 hours and managed to get in 4 locations! I love when we have the ability to really make your session unique.  We had a GREAT time at a jet-ski rental building right in the bay.  I personally just love the look of the building , but once I told Emma and her mom about it they informed me that they know the owner! How crazy is that? So we got an all-access pass so to say.  The images we shot there might be my favorite from her session-I mean how many people can say they just shot on a boat with little to no planning involved? When we walked down to the row of boats there was a young boy working.  He was the cutest little gentleman holding Emma’s hand onto the boat making sure she made it on okay.  I just wanted to hug him! (Is that weird?)

Meet Caitlin PART 2 | Senior Rep

Caitlin has graduated from McDowell in Millcreek Pa.  She is going to Gannon this fall (yay for staying close to home!) She has the greatest smile ever, and loves CHEESEBURGERS! At our welcome party we had an entire conversation about burgers and I knew we’d become super close quickly.  I was totally right there. I asked all of my seniors a few questions about themselves and here are Caitlin’s answers:

Meet Caitlin | Senior Rep

I can FINALLY start blogging some of my senior rep sessions!! I cannot tell you how happy I am to introduce you all to my team.  I love them all so much and they are all amazing.  Caitlin is actually a senior this year- so she’s already graduated 🙁 BUT that didn’t stop us from knocking her session out of the park.  Her session was moved around because of some terrible rain, and the evening of her new date it stormed like crazy! I almost called to cancel and then while I was driving I saw how beautiful the evening was turning out to be and that made for one of the most beautiful sunsets you could imagine.

Senior Rep Caitlin | Prom 2K16

This past weekend was CRAZY with the weather! It was cold and windy and it even snowed at one point :\  BUT this gorgeous senior rep of mine totally pulled her prom look out of the bag.  I had originally planned on taking them outside of the Tom Ridge Nature Center here in Erie, but we needed to stay inside on account of the wind.  I feel like we still made some amazing memories for these two seniors!

Meet Alex! | My Senior Rep Assistant

I want you all to meet a super amazing girl-Alex! Alex was one of my AMAZING seniors last year.  She rocked a prom session that came straight out of The Great Gatsby (link to that HERE) When I was going through my 2017 applicants I noticed that her younger sister Emma had applied.  I was so excited and knew she’d be just as amazing.

Senior Rep Welcome PARTAY!

This past weekend I had to unbelievable opportunity to love my senior rep team. I threw them a welcome party that knocked even my socks off. These kids that will be the face of my brand for the next months are the greatest kids I have ever met.  They each applied by themselves and while I was looking through all of the applications I couldn’t help but feel humbled.  All of these teenagers are doing so much for their schools and communities, and they are all a blast to be around! I want to wait to formally introduce them a bit, so you’ll have to come back for those posts 😉
