I met Emma as a newborn. I just remember her having the biggest, bluest eyes I’d ever seen. To see her as a high school senior after not seeing her in years is a little surreal. I feel incredibly honored that her family made the trip down from Green Bay for this shoot.

I wanted this shoot to have a Fall vibe for some of the photos while still embracing the end of Summer in others.

We started on our wooded path with this cute chunky-knit sweater and pretended it was cooler out than it was.

We then took a few with one of our old trucks just because it was out from a party we had earlier that afternoon. Emma was a great sport as we both tried to get tall enough for me to be able to see her reflection in the rearview mirror. I think they turned out fun, though.

Then we went for a Summer sundress that matches those blue eyes of hers and added a sweater to it over by another of our paths to transition it to more of a Fall feel.

We finished the session off with this cute crop top by a log pile and down by our ponds.
