I've got something new to share today! It's been a while since I have shot a senior portrait session. I do enjoy them, but don't really market to that demographic. I'm more of a fan of creative environmental portraiture than the typical posed senior portrait. And my plate is usually pretty full with family and wedding clients. But, it is definitely fun to stretch a bit and do something different every once in a while.

When Hannah's mama contacted me after Christmas to book a beach session, I could tell we'd click well together at our shoot. She and Hannah were attracted by my beach images posted online. She really wanted some great pics of her oldest daughter, and soon to be grad.

We had a blast shooting at Fort Monroe beach in Hampton. The weather was a bit chilly and windy, so we started off in the quaint little residential areas near the fort.

Fort Monroe is so charming, especially in the spring! And I love the variety of textures and backgrounds you can find by wandering a bit on foot.

As the sun was setting, we headed off to the beach to capture those yummy golden & peachy tones in the soft sunset light.

It was crazy cold in the wind! Poor Hannah had goose bumps from head to toe, but she rocked her portraits like a pro! Isn't she stunning?!

It was a treat to meet you and your mom Hannah! Thank you for trusting me with your senior pics. I'm so thrilled that you love your photos! I wish you the very best as you graduate and set off to college on new adventures. I have ZERO doubt that you will be a fantastic nurse one day soon! - XOXO Melissa
