Meet Paige. We have had an absolute blast getting to work with Paige and her awesome mom over the past year! Paige was a part of the Moxie Model crew, so that means that we got to work with her on many different sessions, which is so much fun! Paige has a smile that lights up her entire face, and I loved being able to capture those looks. When we met up for Paige’s main session, it was a super windy day. We had reached out to Rivermont Collegiate to get permission to shoot around the school grounds, which was incredible. While we were out there, one of the teachers noticed that we were fighting with the wind and asked if we wanted to step inside for a few shots – what an opportunity!! We were able to capture a photo in their main area with Paige and her pointe shoes that has been featured numerous times by high school senior publications and even printed in Dance Szn Magazine! How exciting!! Luckily, after we left that area, we headed to a park, where we were somewhat protected by the trees from the winds. At the end of the session, we were in a creek and I asked Paige how committed she was to getting into the water. She said that she was up for anything and ended up laying down in creek, which made for one of my favorite shots from her gallery! When we were lining up details for our thrift store challenge in August, I remember being so inspired by Paige’s theme – croquet! For the fall session, she brought her Ralph Lauren supermodel inspiration and knocked it out of the park! Paige is such a classic beauty, and is such a joy to be around!
Here is a little about what she had to say about her session with Moxie:
“I love Moxie Design because Karen is so welcoming a makes you feel comfortable the whole time! I had an amazing experience! I love all the shoots that I was able to go to throughout the year. It was always something I was looking forward to. I was a little worried about standing awkwardly in front of the camera not knowing what to do but Karen always made me feel comfortable and gave me poses. Moxie Design is definitely the best place to get your senior photos taken! I was going for a classy editorial type of look in my photos and they always turned out perfect. One of my favorite photos is where I’m laying down in the water. The most memorable part of my shoot was when we got to shoot inside Rivermont Collegiate. Even if you don’t know what look you’re going for Karen will help you add an extra touch by adding props to your photos.”
One piece of advice that Paige has for other seniors getting their photos taken? ” For the girls – consider wearing false lashes they always make your look more elevated”
If she could describe her overall senior session experience in one word, she would choose “fun!”
