Jade is our first Senior for Class of 2022 so this one was extra special!

    Jade’s senior session in Longview, Texas was perfect for some natural light, and fun colorful backdrops!  We started off at the studio with our professional hair and makeup artist, Harley, and then we were off to our first location. Cherry Hill Day Spa has the cutest black and white walls and fun decor out front and was absolutely perfect for Jade's sassy black romper. Funny story, part of Jade's bougie earrings came apart so we went inside the spa and a sweet nail tech came to our rescue with some nail glue and fixed her earrings! Whew, crisis averted! 

   After having fun at Cherry Hill, we headed downtown. We went to this really cool car garage with turquoise walls and big red pillars. It gave a really cool urban vibe and totally fits Jade's bold personality! 

  Jade's next outfit was an adorable white sweater paired with a super fun snake skin skirt. Our maroon fedora hat from the style rack at the studio was the perfect accessory for this outfit! This outfit could not have worked better with the sidewalk benches and marble walled building. Jade is such a fun girl and it was a ball of laughter! This girl totally nailed "the walk" and will now be teaching lessons at the studio LOL! Just joking, but for real y'all, she nailed it! The shots from this location are some of my favorite from her whole shoot! 

  For our next location we went to a pretty little spot where the trees cove over the side walk and and the walls are covered in greenery. This is always a favorite spot of mine for cap and gown pictures! Between the confetti and Jades smile, these images will be so special for years to come for her family.

  Next step was Jades favorite and as she calls it “her bougie outfit”, the hot pink jacket dress. We went to a new spot in downtown Longview, Texas with a colorful wall mural and used one of our purple smoke bombs. These pictures are so full of color! Some may be a little too sexy for graduation cards, but Jade loves them!

  We finished up our shoot at an old tire shop, I know it sounds like a mess but this place is pretty cool. It has bright orange and blue colored walls and some old tires hanging around. Jades white bellbottoms with a cool denim jacket worked perfect for this location! Right at the end of the shoot we had one last outfit in mind if we had time and the sun was perfectly golden and just about to drop below the trees. Jade changed quickly into the long baby blue tulle skirt. Looking back at me was a beautiful young woman but I'm sure Jade's mom can see her little girl looking back at her. These images are truly the sweetest shots of the day.  It was a perfect ending to our first class of 2022 seniors.

  Jade is a Class of 2022 Senior from Atlanta High School in Atlanta, Texas. She will be headed to University of Arkansas in the Fall of 2022, and I know she will do BIG things! Thank you Jade for choosing me as your Senior photographer. I’m so glad I was able to be a part of your senior year! Good luck girl!
