Today I want to share an amazing senior session with you!

Class of 2017 Senior -- Sammy!

Sammy is a senior at George Whittell High School up at Lake Tahoe!

Sammy went all out for her senior portrait session! She carefully chose 5 (FIVE!) different outfits, and we went to all sorts of different locations to tell her story!

One of the coolest things about Sammy’s session was that the locations that we chose together really meant a lot to her. From the Building she works at, to the forest near her home where she runs and plays with her dog, to the beach that her family used to own when she was a kid and made so many memories at. I loved every single one!

I asked Sammy what her biggest fear was before the session. She said “My biggest fear was that I wouldn't look and feel "good" enough in the pictures. Gretchen got me to overcome the fear by making me feel like the prettiest girl in the world during my sessions. After showing some of her "oh my gosh" pictures during the sessions I saw that I was good enough and the pictures came out exactly how I dreamed they would!” J

“I had the best time with Gretchen. She not only made you feel completely comfortable but also made the experience so much fun. She also knows her stuff and made me a pro at poses. She has an extremely talented eye for what angle to use for the picture, what will look good and what won't. While switching different cameras for different effects she makes you feel really good about yourself as well. It was the coolest experience and would recommend her to anyone who asks! She is the BEST! “

Well, Sammy… I think YOU are the best! Thank you so much for trusting me, being so fun to be around, and for absolutely KILLING it at your session!! I can’t wait to see where life takes you, and I feel so honored to have been able to document your Senior Year for you!!

XOXOX,

Gretchen
