Meet Jolee.  This Orion graduate and I met up this spring for her photo session and I was blown away by her natural ability in front of the camera.  She is just as sweet as she is beautiful and I am so lucky that we got to be a part of her senior year.

Here is a little about what Jolee had to say about her session with Moxie:  “My overall experience was awesome! Although I was extremely nervous before my session, Karen made me feel comfortable. I felt like a model the entire time!  I wanted an outdoorsy look with grass and trees, as well as an urban look in the city. I matched my flowy, light colored pieces with the wooded area and my bold colored pieces with the urban setting. My biggest worry was how to pose! However, Karen’s first order of business was to teach me just that. Karen and Sydney constantly made sure my pose looked right for the shot and helped me adjust as needed. I had nothing to worry about! Feeling like a model was the best part of my session. Karen made me feel comfortable and allowed me to make the shoot my own while guiding me in the process. She was so excited for a few of my ideas and the pictures turned out awesome! I had so much fun and I’m glad to call Karen a friend.   I will never forget when my life flashed before my eyes after stepping on a loose plank on the bridge at the park! Surprisingly, I survived and DIDN’T tumble to the ground, but it gave everyone a good laugh.  I love Karen and her crew and I can’t imagine a better turnout for my senior pictures! Everything was perfect and I had an amazing time despite the rain and bugs.  Karen is the sweetest person ever and I am so thankful for how confident she made me feel during my session. I definitely recommend Moxie Design— they’re the best! I love Moxie Design because Karen made me feel like a QUEEN!”

One piece of advice that Jolee has for other seniors getting their photos taken?  “I’d say “Don’t be nervous!” I know it’s easier said than done, but my biggest worry was taken care of at the very start of my session and I felt confident and comfortable the entire time. Karen is there to make you feel great and capture your best looks. Also, just have fun!”

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

I can’t finish this blog post without a shout out to my hair and makeup geniuses at Haus of Heir boutique salon in Davenport – you guys are amazing!

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

xoxo,

Karen
