The class of 2017 is a special one to me. They were the last class that I taught for a full year before my second maternity leave (and when I returned, I only taught for a semester before resigning). Hannah is a part of that class, and is a student I absolutely adore. She is a beautiful performer, and totally blossomed between her freshmen and her sophomore year- she totally stole my heart and attention in Grease that year (maybe partially because of her perfect blonde ponytail!). What I don’t have to mention about Hannah is that she is drop dead gorgeous- because that will be TOTALLY obvious to you. But the truth is, I think you will also be able to see that she is as sweet as can be in these pictures from her senior session a couple of weeks ago. She can be goofy and silly, but is also extremely smart and talented. She brings fun and joy to every room she is in. On her session, Hannah brought her puppy along for a few images, and I had so much fun with them! She is a totally natural model, but has no clue how lovely she is- which makes her even more lovely on the inside, of course. I can’t WAIT to direct her in one more show this spring- Hannah, it’s going to be so fun!!!
Ahh! Had to include these- Hannah was Prom Queen last year, and she will probably be embarrassed by this image but she is so cute!! That dreamy evening light at Lincoln’s New Salem is amazing! Favorite on the left here! #hairgoals Beautiful mama and daughter! I adore you Hannah! Thanks so much for choosing me to capture this time in your life! Full gallery coming soon!

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! I specialize in working with photographers to make their goals a reality (or figure out what their goals should be in the first place!).
She is so beautiful! Congrats on graduating Hannah!!
