Iri {Quincy Senior 2014}

Meet the girl with a name as unique as mine!

Iri :)

When Iri contacted me for her session, I was excited because I knew she'd be a great model.

It's one of her hobbies, she loves modeling!

It was super windy, but you'd hardly be able to tell by these photos.

She's such a fun girl, always smiling and laughing.

And that hair! I'm so jealous of her long hair :p

We were really looking forward to shooting in a sunflower field, 

but because of a huge storm a few days before, they were all dead and ugly.

But we tried anyway! 

All her outfits were adorable & she managed to perfectly coordinate them with the locations 

even though I never told her where we were going ahead of time. Haha.

I'd never gone to this orchard before the session but it turned out to be a great location.

I love how the Quincy Valley is visible behind the field.

Towards the end of the session, we came across this cute farm cat.

He would NOT leave Iri alone, he wanted to be in all the photos!

Great job on the session Iri! 

Thanks for choosing me to photograph you.

Have an amazing rest of the year :)

Alejandra {Ephrata Senior, 2014}

 Alejandra is a beautiful senior from Ephrata.

I met her through her fiancé, Hugo, who was a good friend of mine in high school!

 We had the session in a forest just outside of 

the famous tourist attraction that is the little-German town of Leavenworth.

One of my favorite places!

We hiked through a lot of high grass to find some gorgeous spots!

After the session, we parted ways and I decided to hike off-trail.... dumbest idea ever!

DO NOT wear dresses to off-trail hiking adventures, 

because you will eventually stumble across Stinging Nettle like I did. -_-

For the last half of the session, we traveled back to Crescent Bar.

I just adore her beautiful, jet black, straight hair!

It was such a great day, there were zero boats out and hardly any people around...

a rarity for Crescent Bar!

Did I mention that Alejandra is a member of 

her school's dance team AND a varsity soccer player?!

So cool.

This session was fun, and definitely one to remember.
Alejandra has a great year ahead of her, make the most of it girl :)

Naomi & Edgar {Couple's Session}

Oh these two lovebirds!

They're so incredibly adorable and sweet.

I've known Naomi for years and just barely met her long-time boyfriend, Edgar.

I thought he was going to be shy but he started cracking jokes right away. 

:) 

Those looks they give each other are so cute!

I remember asking at one point if it was okay with them to be photographed kissing...

 I don't think any couple has ever said no to me when I ask that question.

Haha.

 This couple, though, just radiates happiness.

Capturing true love like theirs really makes me happy... 

I know, I know, I'm so cheesy!

I wish you two all the luck in the world, keep being happy :)
