So, I could be wrong, but when I was in high school, I don’t remember the girls being knockouts like this. I seem to remember them being sorta squirrely and nerd-like…oh, wait. Yep. That was probably just me. Anyway, I had the pleasure of taking this lovely lady’s senior portraits this past weekend at Mercer Botanic Gardens. They have a small patch of bluebonnets right now that are beautiful. It was crowded and hot, but you’d never be able to tell, because my model is clearly a pro at this.

Are you believing this beauty? This one is my favorite of the shoot. It was late afternoon and we were at the start of the “golden hour.” A little bit of sun flare, a little bit of greenery, gorgeous catchlights in her lovely eyes…LOVE. I wanted to show this one on the preview, because this ring is her mother’s senior ring. How sweet is that? You know I’m a sucker for sentimental stuff like this.  I just don’t think you are allowed to call yourself a true Texan until you have a picture of yourself in rockin’ cowgirl boots in the bluebonnets. I may have to borrow those boots….:) I had to include one of this cutie pie in her cheer uniform, since it’s senior portraits. But, I thought black and white might be fun and a little unexpected. Sweet girl, thank you for a great shoot. I hope you love these and can’t wait to show you the rest.

Love, Andrea
