Time to get back with some wonderful seniors! If you haven’t seen your senior spotlight reel…it’s coming! Playing a bit of catch up with all the fall seniors! Up next—-Maria! This beautiful senior from Roosevelt ended up with a GORGEOUS day for her pictures! She had a great vision for her pictures and I think we nailed them! Her older brother did pictures with me in 2019 and time went so fast and I can’t believe this is little sis! She was an absolute joy to work with and it was hard to stop taking pictures! Have a fun senior year and keep sharing that joy with everyone!

Next up…Tate! This senior has the best ‘smiling eyes’ ever!! His whole face smiles! I’m sure Tate is looking at these pics now and wanting his long hair back! Shortly after these were taken, he shaved his head along with a few teammates when they made the playoffs! It must have worked because they made it to the championship! Not only does he play football but he also spends his winters on the slopes of Great Bear! So we had to head out there for some pics too! Looks very different without snow! Thanks for the fun time and great locations for your pics! You did great!!! Have a super fun rest of senior year! Keep on smiling and growing your hair back out! 😂

Meet Henry! This senior has to be one of the happiest and kindest boys I’ve ever met. He laughed and smiled the whole time. It was hard to get him to pose with the serious face! He is all about MUSIC! And plans to pursue a music degree after highschool! Thank you Henry, for a wonderful time getting to know you and your mom! Your future is so bright and it will be fun to watch you head off into your next adventure! Remember all of us when you are a famous musician!

Here comes Dawson! Had so much running around downtown with this senior and his sweet mom! He was a little shy but he gave the best smiles in all his pics and would ya look at his serious poses??!! Yowza! Looks like he should be modeling! Dawson was a part of the OG football team that just played for the state championship. But an injury early in the season prevented him from playing! But he was there for his team regardless! You did great with your pictures Dawson! Keep smiling! You are almost half way thru your senior year! Enjoy the ride!

Meet Jacob! This senior from Lennox knew just what he wanted, outside, fishing and his truck! He smiled so perfect when he was doing the things he loved! He has plans to head into the Marines after graduation! Thank you for your willingness to serve! And thanks for a super fun photo session! You nailed it!

Meet the Sorenson Family! I just adore this family and all the joy they share with each other! They do their family pics with me every year and I just am so honored year after year! We hit one of the last days of the fall colors and it was gorgeous💛!! Stay joyful! Love you guys!

Meet Krayton! This amazing senior has been a joy to watch grow up over the years! Not only does he excel on the football field, but he can sing and dance! Now that football season is done, he will be seen on the stage performing in musicals and show choir! And would ya look at his million dollar smile?! Makes his mama melt! Krayton- you are amazing and I cannot wait to see what your future will hold! The best is yet to come!

Meet Taya! Wow did we have a fun time hitting so many places! This girl was game to try anything! She is just stunning. Perfect combo of glamour and tomboy! She had to overcome a serious injury during volleyball which hurt her ability to play much this year but she keeps pushing thru with a smile on her face! Can’t wait to see where she heads next after high school! Her next journey will for sure be an exciting one! The best is yet to come!

Meet Jake! Oh we had such a fun time with this senior! Between his mom, his sweet girlfriend and me, we had him doing all kinds of poses. He just happily obliged and kept us all laughing in the process! He loves baseball so a trip to the field (baseball AND corn field) was a must! Couldn’t resist a little Field Of Dreams shot!
Watch for his senior spotlight reel to watch him and some BTS clips! We even thought he looked like a politician as he waved to his fans! Hahah! Thanks Jake! You were a good sport!
He plans to attend UNL in the fall after and become a Husker! Have a fun senior year Jake! Keep smiling!

We had the perfect night downtown for this senior’s pictures! He even had a fan club cheering for him on their ‘Sip N Cycle’ (see his upcoming reel for that picture) 😂

If you know me, you know that I LOVE summer but if I have to pick a second favorite season, it’s FALL! Mainly because I get to see so many families for their fall family sessions! My seniors are still coming in strong but I’m taking a couple days to highlight some sweet families!

So here comes the Drotzman fam! This sweet family was so full of life and love! Tons of smiles , laughs and contagious energy! We had overcast skies and worked to beat the rain, which we did! Thanks for choosing me to capture these sweet memories!

Meet Landon!
This cool senior from Jefferson made our session quick and easy! It helps when he has the perfect smile and his posing came naturally! He wrestles for the Cavaliers and has future plans to enter the Air National Guard and attend college to major in a aviation. No doubt he will excel in all he pursues! Have a great senior year, Landon!

Meet Brock! You already saw his funny reel and can see how much fun we had! He literally had us all laughing! But this senior from Tea is a force on the football team as well! (Even though he was a little ‘jumpy’ when we made him stand next to the ‘bird-wall’…lol) —-see his senior reel for that story…His dad even got in on the fun and had to have some funny pics with him! Brock really knew how to turn on the serious poses…and is still working on his ‘smolder’! Haha!
