Sarah | Texas State University Graduation portraits 2011

December 12th, 2011

To describe Sarah I would have to use that age-old cliché often used to describe girls (and lord knows I hate to use a cliché) but she truly is sugar and spice and everything nice. After having to re-schedule our session due to a bout of yucky Texas winter weather, we were fortunate enough to [...]

 

To describe Sarah I would have to use that age-old cliché often used to describe girls (and lord knows I hate to use a cliché) but she truly is sugar and spice and everything nice. After having to re-schedule our session due to a bout of yucky Texas winter weather, we were fortunate enough to have the sun peek out just in time for her graduation portraits around San Marcos. This girl was FABULOUS and a real trooper for putting up with my crazy locations in the near freezing temperatures. You can’t tell though, because Sarah was practically a professional at not showing how utterly frozen she was!

Miss Sarah is graduating in 4 days from Texas State University (my alma mater! Eat ‘Em Up Cats!) with a bright future ahead of her thanks to her Mass Communications degree and being involved in the Delta Zeta sorority on campus. We started at the beautiful DZ house and worked our way around San Marcos utilizing some of my most favorite locations to date.

Elizabeth | Texas State Graduation portraits 2011

November 30th, 2011

I absolutely love shooting portraits of college seniors because the excitement of moving onto the real world and leaving what was your insular college bubble for 4 or 5 years is practically tangible. I remember the stress of finishing all my photo projects and studying for my Media Law final exam, all while trying to [...]

 

I absolutely love shooting portraits of college seniors because the excitement of moving onto the real world and leaving what was your insular college bubble for 4 or 5 years is practically tangible. I remember the stress of finishing all my photo projects and studying for my Media Law final exam, all while trying to plan for the 15 minutes where I walked across the stage at Strahan Coliseum at Texas State, shook the Chancellor’s hand and tried my best not to trip in heels.

Elizabeth is graduating in December with her degree in Criminal Law. We spent a lovely San Marcos afternoon walking and talking about senior year and the plans she has for the future. Good luck, Elizabeth! I wish you well.

Shauna | Texas State Graduate 2011

November 16th, 2011

The leaves are falling and the days are getting shorter. Texas State Fall graduation is almost upon us in San Marcos! I couldn’t have asked for better weather when photographing Shauna’s graduation portraits. Sunny and breezy with a mid 80′s high; a Texas fall for sure. Shauna is graduating with a degree in psychology next [...]

 

The leaves are falling and the days are getting shorter. Texas State Fall graduation is almost upon us in San Marcos! I couldn’t have asked for better weather when photographing Shauna’s graduation portraits. Sunny and breezy with a mid 80′s high; a Texas fall for sure. Shauna is graduating with a degree in psychology next month and she was a super fun gal to work with and I am so glad she hired me for her portraits. I loved our Beyoncé/ANTM impressions, Shauna! Congratulations Shauna, you’ll do great.
