When Megan’s mom approached me about doing senior pictures for her, I was thrilled! Megan is another one of my students, and one that is involved in EVERY ASPECT of my program- which I just adore! I was also really excited because Megan is definitely an outdoorsy- open air-country type of girl, so that gave me the challenge of finding a really great location closer than our family farm to do this session. Megan rode horses for a few months earlier this year, so I contacted the stable, and after some negotiations, we got to shoot there! We were at Riverside Stables in Williamsville, and WOW there was so much beauty to unlock there! We had a blast 🙂
Megan is a very special girl to me, and possesses so many wonderful qualities- she is kind and unassuming, funny, lovely, and VERY talented, but her newest skill in my mind is that she can MODEL! She required VERY little direction from me and gave me such a fun range to capture- I loved it! She was so natural in front of the camera and my husband proposed that it is because she is such a strong actress- I can see how these two skills would relate for sure! Enjoy the beautiful Megan!!






I LOVED how we could go from flannel and horses to a lovely lacy dress and she ROCKED them all!!

Megan, you are BEAUTIFUL!!






I get one more year with this lovely girl and I am SO glad! I cannot wait to work with her again, and am so grateful to have gotten to spend this fun time with her, her mom, and her bff Shelby! 🙂 Megan- I adore you- what a beauty you are!! 🙂
