Senior "J"- Fall session | East Idaho Senior Photographer

One of the senior sessions we offer is an "all-seasons mini sessions". Our seniors get to have a one hour mini session each season- summer, fall, winter and spring. It is so fun to get to capture images of the seniors throughout their senior year. This is one of our seniors on our "all seasons mini sessions" this year and we just recently did her fall session. We had so much fun shooting images in the leaves and with all the beautiful fall colors. And thankfully we timed it just perfectly, weather wise. I'm glad we didn't have it scheduled for this week, since it is rainy and is suppose to snow this week. :) 

Here are a few from her session...

Idaho Falls High School Senior- Max {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

I was so thrilled when I got a call from this senior's Mom needing a last minute senior session. I have known this family since I first got married 17 years ago. I used to stay with him and his siblings when his parents went out of town. Over the years I've seen his Mom a few times and have always been amazed at how fast time has gone. But now I am really shocked at how fast time has gone! I can't believe Max is a senior and about to embark on a new adventure.


Today was a little more windy then normal for Idaho but we decided to brave the wind and try to do his session any way. We had a few "sand" storms to deal with, but for the most part we did pretty good. I really enjoyed getting to know Max. He has a fun personality.


Congratulations, Max, on your upcoming graduation! Good luck on all your future plans.

Senior "L" - Skyline HS Senior 2012 {Idaho Falls Senior Photographer}

 I have known this soon-to-be graduated Senior since he was just a little guy. I can't believe he is graduating and embarking on a new chapter in his life. I am so excited for him. He is an amazing kid (and has incredible parents ;D). Senior "L" is very involved in sports and had a fabulous year playing for the Skyline Grizz's! It was fun to do his senior pictures. And I do have to say... I was soooo glad he was a guy the day we did his pictures because the Idaho wind was doing what it does best... BLOWING! We didn't have too worry too much about his hair blowing all over. :) 


Here are a few from his recent session.... 

I just had to post this one... Not sure if he'll like it, but it was one of those moments I just had to catch, as he was interacting with his Mom. Not sure what she said, but whatever it was, it got him to laugh. :)

One of the sports he plays is football. And for those of you who don't know Idaho Falls very well I'll explain why this image is so fun...Idaho Falls High School and Skyline High School are HUGE rivals. Both schools share the same football field. Every year we have an emotion bowl between the two schools and in our town it is a BIG event! Whoever wins the emotion bowl gets to paint the goal posts the color of their school. And it stays that color for a WHOLE year until the next emotion bowl. This year Skyline WON the emotion bowl and Senior "L" helped his team to victory and then had the AWESOME opportunity to paint the goal post blue. We had to do several images by the "blue" goal post! :) 

Beautiful Senior from Hillcrest High School {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

Spring in Idaho can sometimes be a little cold, rainy and windy but on this day we lucked out and had the most beautiful weather.  I think it even got to almost 70 that day. A perfect day to do a fun senior session! And we had a blast doing this senior's pictures! Senior "C" was so fun! And willing to do anything. She made my job easy! And what a beautiful girl, inside and out! 


Thanks, Senior "C",  for choosing our studio for your senior pictures! It was AWESOME!!! Here are a few sneak peeks at your session. I can't wait for you to see the rest! :) 

Senior Fall Mini Session with Paige {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

I always have so much fun with Paige when we do her "mini" sessions. This is her fall mini session and we had a great time "playing" in some fields. She is so beautiful, inside and out. I have such a hard time not editing ALL of her images because she has so many AWESOME ones! But here are a few for a sneak peek...

Senior "M" Prom Dress session {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

I love getting to do sessions of girls in their prom dresses. There are so many amazing dresses out there. And this senior had a couple gorgeous ones! Her yellow one is one of my favorite's. It has the most interesting detail to it. We had fun doing pictures of her in her beautiful dresses. Here are a few for a sneak peek...

We also had fun doing a few images with her boyfriend. What a cute couple! :)

Senior "V"- Fall mini session {East Idaho Senior Photography}

I am having so much fun doing senior mini sessions! I had the awesome opportunity to go down to Pocatello do Victoria's fall mini session with her horse. Her horse is so pretty! It was a little bit chilly that morning, but we had pretty blue skies and some white fluffy clouds. Victoria is such an amazing girl. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know her.


Here are just a few from her recent mini session...

A few more of Senior "S's" recent mini fall session {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

Fall is in the air! Even though I am not ready for the cold weather, I love watching the trees change colors. And getting to do Senior sessions with the fall colors is just beautiful! I had the opportunity to do Senior "S's" mini fall session and we had so much fun. Here are a few more from her recent session. Enjoy!

A Favorite from a recent Senior Session... {East Idaho Senior Photographer}

I am having so much fun editing a recent senior session and I just HAD to share this one! This is senior "S" fall mini session and we had so much fun! I am still working on some of her other images and will share a few more soon.
