Spring is HERE! And so is the pollen! We have a nice layer of “green” on everything around here! Thankfully, we took Sarah’s senior portraits last week before the rush of pollen swept through the area. We took her portraits on the most perfect afternoon in Maymont. We walked around together and just when we thought we were about done, we found the TULIPS! They are gorgeous!! Sarah looked so beautiful and grown up! Seriously, where have the last 4 years gone? We’ve been in Richmond for over 4 and a half years and so that means we met Sarah right as she was finishing up her years in middle school!
And now she’s headed to Michigan! Sarah is one of the sweetest girls in the whole youth group. I remember always loving our time together whenever were both at youth group. She’s positive, motivated, gentle, genuine and has a heart of gold. It’s easy to see why everyone loves being in her presence. I can’t believe she’s headed to college but after taking these portraits, it’s easy to see that she’s grown up and ready for the next phase of life! She’s going to do amazing things both on and off the tennis courts! :)
Sarah, I love you girl! I’m so proud of you and the way you carry yourself. You’re a light and such a beautiful example of a well rounded, mature and passionate woman. I can’t tell you how much I loved our time together!!!! Enjoy your pictures!! You’re gorgeous!!!!
Love this!
Sarah has the BEST laugh!
Oh my gosh these TULIPS!
The glow was perfect!
So beautiful, girl!
Love this one!
And then we found THIS spot! Ah!
Thanks for reading!
