This senior needed 10 stitches after our session...OUCH!!!

And no, it wasn't my fault! I arrive for "M's" session and her mom greets me and tells me that she had an accident at soccer practice and has a pretty nasty gash on her leg. M still wanted to go ahead with her session though. She is made of tough stuff, let me tell you! I would tell you that this injury didn't slow her down one bit, but she had to keep stopping to apply pressure. Oh man! M may have been having a bad day, but her session was a blast for me. And she not only wins my "toughest senior" award, but also, hands down, takes home "most gorgeous eyes" as well. The web quality photos don't do them justice, but you can kind of see what I mean...


And one more just to prove that she really was up for anything.

I hope you are feeling better M! Thanks for being such a good sport! Your first Cold Stone ice cream is on me!! :)

Hot pink flower blossoms + white shirt = not one of my best moments

Okay, here's a little preview for Miss A. Now, I have to tell you a little story about this session. The crape myrtles were blooming beautifully on this particular day and a certain photographer had the "brilliant" idea that this senior should lay down on the grass that was covered with the fallen blossoms. This same photographer was also wearing kaki pants and got down on the ground as well to get the shot. So we, um, cough, I mean "this photographer" and senior get up and find themselves covered with stains. Ugh! Brilliant Alicia, really!!! "A" tells me the shirt is just fine though, so all is well. Warning to all future clients: your photographer has only the perfect shot in mind, so feel free to tell her she's nuts! :)

Anyway, here is your sneak peek A. Luckily we got some shots before I ruined your shirt!! :)



There are still a few Holiday Limited Edition sessions left. (Get the details in the post below). Contact me soon if you'd like to reserve one!
