Lauren and I brainstormed her session.  I always let my senior go first so I can get true thoughts and ideas.  I asked her “give me words to describe what you want your session to feel like.”  She chose “fashionable, classic, timeless, vintage, Chanel, Jackie O”.  By her giving me these words, I can envision the style she’s going for.  Then we start brainstorming locations.  Most times seniors don’t have a location in mind, if that’s the case I will offer suggestions that I feel will fit their vision.  Lauren already knew she wanted to use Upham Arch at Miami University (Oxford) and a few other areas around campus as well.  The image above is my absolute favorite from her session!  That arch is a wind tunnel!  Holy moly!!  No where else on campus was windy that day, that tunnel was crazy!  That’s why I now love it!

Lauren owns a crap ton of scarves!  I have never seen so many!  We kept it to just one for this shoot though.  We channeled Jackie O and Chanel.  I think it turned out perfectly!  We used her parents 1968 Cadillac and we went to the Fairgrounds in Brookville, IN.

Ok, you are going to go coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs….Lauren made this dress!  Yup!  She’s been in 4-H for like ten years!  She has won numerous awards, including Grand Champion and has placed 1st-3rd to name a few!  Not only is she AWESOME at making outfits, she is pretty darn good in photography too!  She is a super hard-worker, she didn’t just “poof” into an amazing girl.  Anyway, for this location, we were going for Old-World, Elizabethan Era.  Again, I think we did pretty good.  Well, in this shot, all I did was pick the spot and click the shutter.  Lauren is such a natural beauty!
