thing to shoot a session for a fun, high school senior… and it’s another thing to shoot one with a girl who you ADORE. I love Margeaux. She’s a part of our youth group at Gayton and she has become a huge part of my life this past year. It started with one coffee date… and then that let to another and another. Over the course of this past year, I’ve really gotten to know Margeaux over multiple slices of Starbucks’ pumpkin bread and Cookout milkshakes! Marge is incredible…. but like most high school girls… and really, most women in general, she doesn’t realize how amazing she is. She has a personality that literally lights up a whole room and when you’re around her….
there’s never a dull moment. For example, on Sunday night, I walked into the youth room and I found Margeaux planking on a bookshelf… you just never know what you’re gonna get with Marge!! She sees the world differently and it’s so refreshing.
I love hearing about her life, her friends, school, long boarding, concerts, lacrosse, and what it means to be a vegetarian. Lets just say, I learn a lot from Margeaux!! …. and hopefully she’s learning a little something from me too. She’s a senior and in a few short months, we’ll be celebrating college admission and Michael and I will be at her graduation party. Then summer will fly by and she’ll be off to school….. and I REALLY HATE talking about this because it’s just so sad! Margeaux means a lot to me and cherish her friendship. I’m so excited for her to enter the real world and attend the college of her dreams… but I’m going to miss having her around. So enough with the SAD stuff! Lets move on and talk about this session of hers! It was a blast. From beginning to end! We drove down to Petersburg because that place feels like it’s abandoned and it has AMAZING locations for portraits! It was PERFECT! After 2 hours and 4 outfit changes, we realized we should probably stop taking pictures because no one needs 1,200 images!!!! Marge is quite the model and so enjoy my favorites!! Happy Tuesday!
Seriously… this is one of the FIRST 5 images I shot…. and I knew it was going to be a great day!:)
Marge you’re gorgeous. yesssss! Love overcast days!! The color it awesome!!
Like this pose…. Marge made it up… So proud:) favorite!!!!!! another favorite!!
If you knew what it took to get into this nice wheat-filled area….. you would be impressed! I was shooting through a FENCE and Marge climbed over this fence… in a MINI SKIRT. Good times.

I’m really excited about this YouTube video because I know that it resonates with ALL photographers who photograph PEOPLE!!
Have you ever walked into a client experience and realized “oh wow, this is not what I was expecting?” ….
The business world (and just the world in general) looks A LOT different today than it did 15 years ago when I started my business.
We’ve talked a lot lately about how great AI editing is and how it can be revolutionary for so many wedding and portrait photographers.
