Caitlin | Studio Formal Session | Danville, Virginia Photographer

Caitlin is one of MBP's 2015 Senior Models:) I am so excited to have her on my team! Caitlin blew me away during her in-person interview, so when I decided to try something new with the studio formals, I called her up and asked her if she would be interested. She was, and after I saw her prom dress, I knew this was going to be an amazing experience for us both. The color of her dress went perfectly with what was in my head. It's always exciting to try new things, and I had a blast trying out artificial lighting and a whole new style of photography.

MUA: Kim Dalton (Caitlin said she felt like a princess!)

Here are a few of my faves from her session. She was like royalty, for real. I couldn't get over how glamorous she was!

See what I mean about royalty? Looks like a pose for the Queen!

Her smile is infectious!

And those EYES!

Caitlin, thanks for trying out something new with me! Yall be sure to watch out for Caitlin's senior session later this year. We are already planning and it's going to be AMAZING!

I will be offering Studio Formals as an addition to MBP senior sessions, so if you're interested in booking, you can get started by using the Contact tab!

Katie | 2014 Senior | Senior Photography

Katie made sure to book her session early (last spring)! We planned out her September senior session and incorporated her personality and interests. I was excited to hear that Katie plays guitar, so of course I had to have some fun with that.  She was also one of the few seniors who has brought their class ring to their session! So we had some fun with that too:) Here are few of her senior photos:

The photo below was Katie's favorite!

Thanks so much, Katie, for having me photograph your senior portraits! I'm so glad that you and your family love them:)

Jacob | 2014 Altavista Senior

Meet Jacob. He's a handsome 2014 senior at Altavista High. We had lots of fun at his session, despite his reluctance to "love" taking photos:) What guy does, right? LOL

Here are a few of my favorites:

Jacob has a unique tattoo on his arm.  It says: "Magis quam iustus vita viventium", which is Latin for "There's more to live than living."

It was my pleasure to take your senior photos, Jacob! I hope that you and your family can enjoy them for many years to come!

Mia | 2014 Senior | Danville, VA Senior Photographer

Meet Mia. She is one of my 2014 Senior Models and attends GW High School. She is so freakin gorgeous...like, for real, it shouldn't be legal to look that amazing. We met up at the salon to start the session with hair and makeup with Katie. Then we headed downtown for the shoot. Here are a few of my favorites:)

WARNING: Lots of gorgeousness ahead. It may be too much for some viewers;)

Mia had 2 different looks for her hair...thanks to the amazing Heidi and Katie! Here was her first look...

The photo below became Mia's absolute fave during her ordering session:) I love it right much too!

Of course, I love this too...

We switched up the look for Mia's hair and had it all down for the 2nd half of her session:) Mia also had her boyfriend step in on a few:) I love this candid shot of them! She did too!

Ya know...she really should take up modeling....

Ohhhhh....its just too much Mia! You're amazing!
