Quad City Senior Photography | Meet Morgan

Meet Morgan.

This Davenport Central senior and I met up on an extremely HOT day last year.  I’ll never forget arriving to Morgan’s high school the afternoon of her session.  We were under a severe thunderstorm warning, but radar didn’t show the line arriving until after Morgan’s shoot would be finishing up, so we continued on with the shoot – and thank goodness we did, we didn’t see any rain!   When I pulled up, there were fire trucks with flashing lights at the same entrance we were supposed to be using.  Thankfully, it was just an issue with the alarm system!  We headed inside and although it was quite warm in there, Morgan didn’t let it get to her for a minute.  We had so much fun over the next few hours with this beauty and her wonderful mom, Lisa.  We headed to Vanderveer for the second portion of her session, and we captured some really cool photos – one of which has been featured nationally more than once!  We ended the session downtown Davenport, where Morgan had the most amazing outfits!  There was this dress that she paired with the most amazing earrings and shoes – so of course I brought along a red purse to match for a few photos.  She also had these leather shorts that had such an editorial vibe  that I loved.  We shared so many laughs with Morgan and her mom, and it felt like an afternoon spent with friends.

Here is a little about what Morgan had to say about her session with Moxie:
“My senior session was amazing!  I love that Karen got to know me personally. She went out of her way to capture some amazing photos and to capture my personality. Karen takes the time to get to know you, has great communication leading up to the photo shoot, experience hands down is the best! Karen definitely surpassed all of our expectations. Leading up to the shoot, my biggest worry was choosing my outfits, but the day of my session it was definitely the heat, humidity and fear of storms moving in. Karen was prepared with numerous fans to help keep me cool and her husband keeping her updated on the storms tracking. Fortunately we diverted the threat and had an amazing end to our shoot.  The most memorable part of my session was feeling at ease, Karen made a stressful situation completely unstressfull!  I love Moxie Design because of Karen and how she made me feel confident and important. You can truly tell Karen loves what she does.”

One piece of advice that Morgan has for other seniors getting their photos taken?  “It’s ok to step outside you’re comfort zone. Totally put my trust in Moxie and have my amazing photos to show it.” <– awesome advice, my friend!!

If she could describe her overall senior session experience in one word, she would choose  “exceptional.”

Thank you for letting us be a part of your senior year, Morgan!!

Karen
