Quad City Senior Photography | Meet Moxie Model Caiya

Meet Moxie model Caiya. We met up with Caiya at a downtown location on a beautiful summer day. She had some amazing outfits – all with such variety, which led to her final gallery being incredible. Right off the bat, I remember I asked her to do a runway walk and she absolutely nailed it! Next, we went to her grandparents farm and it provided the perfect backdrop for her remaining looks. I remember at one point, I was laying down on this country road and asked Caiya to do a hair flip for me. On the count of three, she turned so perfectly, that in the behind the scenes video we were taking, you can hear me say “that looked just like a shampoo commercial!” We ended the night around her grandparent’s lake, where we captured this incredible reflection shot. We captured SO MANY BEAUTIFUL images that day and had a lot of fun!

Here is a little about what Caiya had to say about her session with Moxie: “My senior session with Moxie was great! I wanted a casual and natural look for my shoot. I like nature and a little cityscape and Karen and I planned great locations to achieve it. During the shoot, my biggest fear was one of the shots we took at the lake. I had to lay on my side on the very edge of the dock , with my hair resting just a couple of millimeters above the water. End result was a beautiful photo! My favorite part of the Moxie experience was working with Karen and Emma! Being at my grandparent’s farm to shoot was something I’ll always remember. One highlight of the farm shoot was being out at the lake, and Karen went to her car, grabbed her waders, and said, “I always keep them in my trunk in case there’s a good water opportunity!” I was a bit skeptical of having to lay on the dock, but I trusted Karen and the shot was great! Working with Moxie is a great experience! Karen and her team make the process so easy, fun, and memorable!”

One piece of advice that Caiya has for other seniors getting their photos taken? “Trust the process!”

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

Thank you for letting us be a part of your senior year, Caiya! It was so much fun getting to know you over the past year!!
