More frequently than not, the seniors that I photograph are seniors that I have a long history with. But occasionally, I get to meet and get to know new seniors, and I love it- especially when they are as sweet as this one! I had only met Holly 1 or 2 other times, but know her mother, and I was so excited to get to photograph her. This girl is the real deal! She is kind and sweet, and just a very authentic young person- I get the feeling that she is always just herself, and it was refreshingly beautiful. Holly is involved in the fine arts in many ways at her school, and I loved getting to chat with her about all of that. Holly also has worked very hard to get to where she is, and is in an amazing position of being pretty sought after in her college selection, and she should be based on her accomplishments! And…she was SO much fun to photograph! A little camera shy but absolutely gorgeous and natural! Meet Holly:

You're in the right place! As a past high school teacher, educating others is my life's work and a HUGE part of my business! I have been teaching moms and hobbyists how to use their camera from first purchasing it all the way to coaching them into businesses of their own, and I'd love to help you as well, wherever you are (and whatever camera you have!).
I'm so glad you are here! Teaching Photographers and other small business owners how to run more joyful, successful, and profitable businesses is one of my favorite parts of my business!
