Meet Allison.
This Geneseo beauty was so much fun to work with and the moment I will never forget during her session was one of the most beautiful display of sunrays that I’ve ever seen.  Here is a little about what Allison had to say about her session with Moxie:

“For my senior session, I wanted a look that showed my personality. I chose my grandparent’s house as the first location because I have had so many memories there, what better place to take photos? I then went downtown Geneseo, hoping to capture some photos with my hometown. Lastly, I took photos with an airplane. This was an example of my future. I really wanted to capture who I am and who I will be in my photos. My overall senior photo session experience was amazing! I had such a fantastic time; one I will never forget. I had fun with Karen, and she truly made me feel comfortable. I wish I could go back because I had such a great time. This was truly one of the best moments of my senior year.  My biggest fear was that I would look stupid in my photos. I was hesitant about posing, but Karen never led me astray. The photos turned out amazing, proving my worries were all in my head. My favorite part was getting to take photos with an airplane. The light was shining perfectly and Karen was able to get some really awesome shots. When I looked at the photos, I felt like I was looking at my future. It was an amazing experience to be able to have that opportunity.   My most memorable moment of my session was when my mom was worried about a scab a had on my arm. It sounds silly, but she was so nervous it would ruin all the pictures. Before my mom even mentioned it Karen said, “Don’t worry I can totally crop the scab out.” I still laugh about it, and the day of, it lightened the mood so much. It was such a weird but great memory from the day.   I have definitely already told my friends about this amazing experience. I said how they have to go to Karen, because she is simply the best. I also discussed how I was made to feel comfortable–I never felt awkward going into weird poses, you just have to trust Karen. Also, being a model for a little while was totally awesome, which I think all my friends should get to experience at least once in their life.   Although I do not consider myself to be anywhere near being a model, Karen made me feel like a true beauty queen the day of my session.”

One piece of advice that Allison has for other seniors getting their photos taken?  “Do not overthink it. If you want to try some crazy pose or idea, go for it! It could turn out super cool and unexpected.”

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