Meet Kendra—a soon-to-be graduate of Oconomowoc High School with a heart full of joy and a big dream of becoming a photographer. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Kendra and her family for many years, both through photographing them and crossing paths with her sweet mom at the YMCA.
When we sat down together to plan out her session, Kendra told me that she really wanted a “fairy tale” feel to her senior portrait session. The location I suggested to achieve this look worked perfectly for her vision, wouldn’t you agree? Dreaming up the story behind portrait sessions is probably my favorite part of what I do. That all happens at the initial consultation, when we chat about how we can make your portrait session special and meaningful.Last summer, Kendra spent some time shadowing me on sessions, learning the ins and outs of lighting and asking all the best questions. She’s bubbly, talkative, and wonderfully open, never afraid to share what’s on her heart. Her strong faith and joyful spirit shine in everything she does, and it’s been such a gift to watch her grow into the confident young woman she is today.
