All Girl!

Charity was a joy to work with from the first few shots. I had not taken Senior Portraits of girl in two years and was so ready for a change!

Charity brought such a femininity to this session, and I feel that I was able to capture the real her.

I had told her to bring any kind of prop that would help us catch her essence. From the gorgeous daisies, and bright flip flops to the collection of sunglasses, we were able to paint a beautiful portrait of young woman beginning her life long journey into adulthood.


I can't take too much credit for this shot... Charity and her Mom set this one up. I just took the picture, and wow! Absolutely stunning! Of course it was hard to get a bad shot of such a beautiful subject...




The Cowgirl: I had saw a picture on facebook of Charity wearing her cowgirl boots and had hoped that when I took her Senior Portraits she'd bring them along!

Talk about brave! The day of Charity's shoot it turned off a bit cool, but she was determined to have a set of her portraits in the water... you can't tell in this photo because she did a great job of concealing it, but her teeth were chattering! Poor girl! But this set turned out gorgeous, and in spite of the temperature, I think she had fun with our session. I know I did. Thank you Charity, for choosing
Baker Photography!

All Grown Up!!!

I was a bit like a proud, er, cousin taking these portraits. I am old enough to be James' Aunt but alas we are but cousins. I used to baby sit James when he was a bratty little kid... okay, maybe I was an impatient teenager and James was a normal little kid!

James and I had a blast taking this set. I think we worked/played for 2 1/2 hours... that's not how long I usually shoot, but this shoot was kind of a gift from me to the proud graduate.

James kind of has a thing for sunglasses, so it was only natural to incorporate them into his portraits. I like when my subjects bring something of themselves into their shoot, it really makes their photo's stand out and they are much more comfortable when they can act a bit goofy!

Jeremy

This was quite a nerve wracking shoot! It isn't every day that you take pictures of your pastor's son. But we had fun anyway and got some wonderful shots for Jeremy's senior portraits.
