I knew the minute that I met Jaime that we would create some beautiful images together so I was super pumped for the day of her session… until I looked at the weather. The forecast showed 100% chance of rain for most of the day, but the radar map showed that it was hit or miss, so we decided to move ahead with her session and throw caution to the wind. Location #1 – Rain. Jaime worked through it like a pro and didn’t let it phase her. We had intermittent showers, but we also had the amazing cloud cover, so we rolled with it. Next up? Location #2 – More rain (however this time the storm was amazing because the sun peeked through the clouds and we were able to capture the most beautiful sun rays in some of her images. Location #3 – Rain again. By now, I was super frustrated with Mother Nature, but we scooted under a Willow Tree and waited for it to pass. Location #4? You guessed it – RAIN! We had our off camera flash setup ready to go and we shot in between rain drops and captured some absolutely breathtaking images.
Jaime was going for a boho chic look for most of her session, adding in some volleyball editorial images and she absolutely nailed it. Jaime said the following about her time with Moxie:
“My senior photo session couldn’t have been better. During my session the weather was unpredictable. It rained off and on throughout the session but it ended up making for some really cool shots. It was so much fun and I felt very comfortable modeling for Karen . Having a down to Earth, nice and funny photographer makes all the difference and that definitely shows in the pictures. My biggest fear for my senior session was how the pictures would turn out – and they turned out absolutely amazing. Karen is the best senior photographer in the area. The pictures turn out amazing and she makes you feel very comfortable (which is something a photographer should do because the pictures turn out better when you are yourself. My experience was FANTASTIC!”
Stay tuned for another blog post featuring the beautiful Jaime as we made our way to a sunflower field one afternoon this summer. Love you, Jaime! xoxo
