Laura Lee's Senior Photos// Longmont, CO

Hiiiiii!!!!!

I don't know if it's possible but I am so excited about every session I post. Mostly because I have the most awesome clients ever who are so fun to hang out with and so easy to photograph. For example, Laura! She is as sweet as candy and so charming! We have a bit in common like the fact that we're both introverts and we both LOVE babies and kids so we had a good 'ol time together. Plus, I just love that fact that she trusted me enough to do some of her senior photos in a laundromat! I think if it was anyone else they would have said no but she said "what the heck, let's do it!" And I'm so glad she did! Take a look:

1. Tell us about yourself (do you have any hobbies? Do you have any pets? What's your favorite subject in school?).

My full name is Laura Rachael Lee and i was born on June 5th, 1999. My favorite color is blue. I have two dogs and their names are Charlie and Toby. My favorite subject is English. I love hanging out with my friends and I'm always up for trying new things.

2. What are your plans after high school?

My plans after high school are not really set right now. I plan on going to college and want to do something involving children but I'm just not sure exactly what yet.

3. What is one of the hardest lessons you've had to learn in high school?

The hardest lesson I've had to overcome in high school is knowing things aren't going to last forever. I know it may sound dumb because I'm so young but I've been with someone I deeply cared about and had my heart broken and that was probably the worst pain I've had to get through and I realized that things change and so do people and there's nothing we can do about that. 

4. What is your favorite thing to do for fun? 

My favorite thing to do for fun is to just hang out with my friends and get some food and just talk about everything. I also like just driving around and seeing what kind of adventures the road brings along. 

5. What is one of your favorite memories from high school?

One of my favorite memories from high school would probably be all the rivalry games. I love how many people show up and how hype everyone is. We all come together as a family hoping our team will bring home the win.

6. Where do you see yourself in five years?

In five years, I see myself hopefully finishing up with college soon and starting to live the life I want. I see myself being happy and doing things that i enjoy with someone special by my side and probably a few dogs.

7. If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?

If i could go anywhere in the world, i would go to Hawaii because I love the beach and the sun and it just looks so beautiful there. It would be nice to explore somewhere i've always dreamed of going.

8. Who is your best friend isn't what about you both makes you click so well?

My best friend is someone named Ciarrah Manzanares. We click so well because we are so much alike. We think the same and talk the same and act the same and she is my go to person. I couldn't imagine my life without her.

9. If you could have any superpower, what would you have and why? 

If I could have any superpower, it would be invisibility so i could pull pranks on people and scare them and then laugh about it later.

10. What three words would you use to describe yourself?

Three words I would use to describe myself would be easily amused, kindhearted and fairly quiet. 

11. What is one thing you couldn't live without?

One thing I couldn't live without would be my dad. I know at some point I will have to try but my dad and I are so close and I can talk to him about anything and everything, I would be devastated without him. He gives me all the love I could ever ask for.

12. Do you have any advice for the underclassmen?

My advice to the underclassmen is to put yourself out there. Participate in spirit week and go to all the sporting events you can because if you do, i promise you that high school will be 10 times more fun. Four years may seem like a long time but it goes by so much faster than you think so make the most of it while you're there.

Morgan's Senior Photos// Denver, Co

Hello again!

What an amazing season of senior photos it has been for me. I have gotten to work with some of the coolest kids- including this girl Morgan! I am so glad we got her cool Denver session done after literally three tries over a month's time. The weather here in Colorado can be pretty hard to predict and every time we tried to shoot the day would bring us a rain storm. SO, we finally got to Denver and had an awesome time! Take a look:

1. Tell us a little about yourself (do you have any hobbies, what’s your favorite tv show, do you have any siblings).

I really enjoy reading, listening to music, shopping, playing soccer, drawing, going to concerts, traveling, skiing, long boarding, wake boarding, and going out with my friends.  I am an only child, and I have two dogs, who are the closest things I have to siblings.  My favorite tv show is How I Met Your Mother, and my favorite movie is Pulp Fiction.  

2. What are your plans after high school?

After high school, I really hope to attend San Diego State University, but I'm undecided on what I want to major in still.  

3. Who is your favorite movie star and why?

My favorite actor is Seth Rogan.  He is hilarious in any part that he plays and is such a good actor.  Neighbors is one of my favorites that he is in.

4. What has been the hardest lesson to learn in high school?

For me, the hardest lesson to learn was to accept myself and be content with that.  There is so much pressure in high school to look and act a certain way at all times, and very recently I learned that it was okay to be different, to just worry about myself and not what others thought of me.  Due to that, I've been much more confident and happier altogether.

5. Who is your biggest role model and why?

My biggest role model, hands down, is my dad.  He has always been my rock.  I strive to be as successful and happy as he is when I grow up.  He knows how to put a smile on anyone's face and is one of the hardest workers I have ever met.  

6. If you could have coffee with any 3 people (dead, alive, past, or future) who would it be and why?

One would be my great grandmother Rita, we shared the same birthday and she passed away when I was young, so I was never able to get to know her.  Another person would be Tyler Joseph, from twenty one pilots.  He is the singer of my favorite band and their music is so different and fun.  The last would be my future self.  I would like to know how I turn out, and what my life will be like 20 years.

7. What is your favorite memory of high school?

My favorite memory of high school was going to Jackson Lake with my best friend for the Fourth of July this past summer.  We wake boarded and watched fireworks, and all of my family was there.  It was one of the best weekends I've had in a long time.

8. What is your favorite subject in school and why?

My favorite subject in school probably has to be U.S. History.  It's always been so interesting to me to learn about how everything that happened in the past has an affect on our society today.

9. What is your favorite thing to do on a Friday night?

Football games have always been the highlight of my Friday nights in high school.  Everyone comes together for one thing, and it's always so exciting.  Typically, my friends and I go out to eat after the games, which is also another one of my favorite things to do.

10. What is your biggest fear about the future?

My biggest fear about the future is that I won't end up happy.  No matter what I'm doing or how much money I'm making, my biggest concern is my happiness and having people around me that care about me. To me, that is the goal.

11. Do you have any advice for the underclassmen?

I want all underclassmen to know that high school only takes up four years of your life, so make the most of it, but don't dwell on the little things.  Before you know it, you will be starting senior year wondering where all of the time went.  Have fun and don't worry too much.  Let all of the petty drama go, talk to some new people, dare to be different, put yourself out there.  

12. If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

If I could choose, I would to want to be able to read people's minds.  That way I would be able to know exactly what they were thinking at all times.

I hope you enjoyed getting to Morgan and thanks for stopping by!
