Adrianna and I met last spring during our prom session at Within by CDI. I remember when she walked in, that she had the most beautiful blueish aqua dress and this incredible smile that lit up the entire room that we were working in. During Adrianna’s main session, I loved that we were able to include her adorable pup in some of the photos! We captured those photos at the park and then braved a waterfall to capture some unique images. At the end of her session, it was so windy that when we tried to throw poms for her dance photos, they kept flying out of frame. It was a really fun way to end the session on the PV football field!
Here is a little about what Adrianna had to say about her time with Moxie: “My session was so much fun. I felt at ease and was able to enjoy myself. I felt confident and enjoyed myself the entire time! The vibe I was going for in the shoot was something softer with lots of florals. I also wanted some city vibes for variety. I was a little worried that I wouldn’t like the way I looked in my photos due to angles and other factors, but because of the confidence I had (and Karen’s experience) I loved every photo. My favorite part of the day was being able to get my hair and makeup done before my pictures. It helped me relax rather than stress about my time and focus on myself and feeling confident. The most memorable part of my session was being able to include my dog in my pictures. I have had my dog since I was five years old and being able to include him in my senior pictures was an experience I will never forget. Karen worked so hard to make sure I felt comfortable during my session. She was so encouraging and helped me picked the perfect locations for all my outfits. I felt stunning the entire time and working with her again for my smaller shoots was something I looked forward to, because I knew I would love the way they turned out. I love Moxie Design because Karen made me feel confident!
One piece of advice that Adrianna has for other seniors getting their photos taken? “I would tell them to make sure they feel confident in their outfit choices and to include anything you think you might want. It’s better to have extra pictures than to regret not getting pictures with certain items.”
If she could describe her overall senior session experience in one word, she would choose “delightful.”
I have loved having you as a part of the Moxie model squad, Adrianna! Cheers to your graduation!!
