This is my first senior that I have been doing her baby pics and NOW she is GRADUATING!!!!!! Pretty special huh! yep, her mom and I were def welling up with tears during her session! Her High School Senior Photography session was so dreamy! We did her session downtown Sarasota around our studio then hit the beautiful Siesta Key Beaches! We reminisced about when she was little… how her sister and her would wear pink dresses… the time when her little sister ran off… oh gosh cue the tears! Gabrielle is a gem of a girl, honestly! She works hard at school and has big dreams!!!! She just got accepted into her dream school and I just couldn’t be more proud of her! Shine bright girl and reach high for those goals! You got this!!!!!!
What I love so much about high school senior sessions is the FASHION!!! So many options! Trends! Colors! Tones! Textures! All of these things make your shoot unique and memorable! Like if there is a cute sweater you wear all the time at school because it’s freezing in the ac. then I highly recommend bringing it along for a few shots… it’s fun to look back when you’re 30 and think oh wow, I remember I loved that soft PACSUN sweater I got for my birthday! I wore that every day! Go shopping with your mom or a bestie for a few new things! Free People has so many pretty special dresses! and adorable accessories like this! I tell my seniors to aim for 5 FAVORITE outfits! Like outfits you put on and look in the mirror and think damn, I look good!
