My college thesis lit a fire in me!!\u00a0The style was\u00a0loosely based on\u00a0Michelle L Morris Photography<\/a>‘s school portrait style. The project was the start of a healing process for me after my grandma passed away. You can read more about it here<\/a>. Anyway, I realized there was something so perfectly beautiful about shooting like this and that I wanted to run with it. So, for my next class in college, I was asked to create a fresh\u00a0section for my graduating portfolio. I wanted something simple that I could do without going to far from home, so\u00a0I decided on School Portraits … why not?! I made a plan, found about 20 kiddos, and went for it! I can’t tell you how fulfilling this type of shoot is to me … which seems odd, and many would argue isn’t very creative or fun … but it is! Envisioning the\u00a0expressions that you want to capture and then pulling those from children it’s not an easy feat!<\/p>\n

These three beautiful, smart,\u00a0silly littles came were some of the first to come over and help me out this school project\u00a0just before the the end of summer vacation! My goodness, they’ve grown! I’ve known them for a couple of years now, as my youngest little, Rhylie, is in their mom’s Brownie troop! And wow is she the best leader ever! So creative and always finding fun things for the girls to do! Anyway, I’ve watched them grow over the last couple of years and it just amazes me how fast\u00a0they go from being babies to saying “I three” in their cutest little three year old voice, in the case of her youngest, Katie! She is\u00a0such a doll …\u00a03 years old, sweet as can be, and a load of laughs! Oh, I wish mine were littler again! Her older brother and sister were a hoot as well! Here they are, youngest to oldest!<\/p>\n
