senior photo shoot

This lovely girl is our niece, Kyra. I know! Gorgeous, right? I took her senior pictures yesterday. Thanks to her equally-lovely sister Cyera, we got some good, genuine smiles and had such a great time. While Kyra’s not necessarily seeking for votes, I am totally interested in your input. Leave a comment and vote for your ONE favorite. Just for fun.

Next step: Make Kyra’s graduation announcement.

  74. Amy says:

    Number 3 is my fav!

  75. The Jessee Journal says:

    Number Four is my fav! I like the composition the best. If you want a headshot one I would choose #1 probably, or crop in #6 to become a headshot :D (oh and I love that your senior photos look clean and classic and classy … it seems like the trend these days is to have the girls look like dramatic pouty supermodels)

  76. "Intentionally Katie" says:

  136. patricia says:

  137. heidig says:

    Beautiful girl, beautiful shots! I'm a casual kind of girl so #4 would be my pick. I would love to see the invites you create as my youngest is graduating from high school in June and I will making her invitations.

  138. ccledbetter says:

    #3 is my favorite, #1 is beautiful also. Hard to know for sure when you don't know the person, what reflects her personality. I would say that #5 her posture is a little slouchy (just being honest with my first reaction). At 2nd glance, #6 is lovely also. Good luck! Becky, your pictures are beautiful!!! I need to practice more with my camera. I've been a little discouraged lately.

  139. soapymom says:

    All beautiful! I like #3 the most the colors are so good and she stands out against the green.

  140. Alice says:

    #6 is very sweet!
    –Alice S.

    Beautiful! I think they all turned out great but #3 is breathtaking.

  146. sheila says:

    #3 IS THE BOMB !!!! Love it !!!!

  147. Lisa says:

    #6. looks natural, and less posed then 2-5. 1 is nice too, but I like 6

  148. Christina says:

    #3!

  149. jen says:

    Tough to pick one- they are all gorgeous! She's very photogenic, and also lucky to have a talented photographer/aunt! :)
    I'd say #1 is my choice for announcements, but #2 is SO fun! I love how her toes are rocked up off the pavement!!

  150. Jen says:

    She's a very pretty girl but I prefer 3 & 6 because there's less background interferrence.

  151. Joy says:

    I like 1 & 6 best!

  160. Alison says:

    #3 and #6 in that order

  161. Teresa says:

    All great photos…but definately #3 is my vote. Vibrant colors and great smile!

  162. Alisha says:

    #6–beautiful flowers and a beautiful smile.

  163. Steph (and Bryant) says:

    #3 for sure … with #4 as second place!!

  164. April says:

    I can't decide between the first and last ones, although they are all beautiful!

  165. ada says:

    fav-#6 runner up #1

    these are great! I have referenced to one of your shoots from while ago of another senior that I LOVED. A girl named Cami I think???? Loved the "cover bridge"/path/wood background with her coloring…

    I guess this means your camera is back from Doc? Yeah!! For tips, what lens & what time of day & settings? we all love tips when pics turn out this great!

  166. Jenn says:

    I love #3!

  167. 'T' says:

    #1- excellent positioning and seriously, what a knock out.

  176. giddykids.blogspot.com says:

    #3; beautiful girl!

  177. PamS says:

    I like number 3. The way it is cropped, the way her arms are crossed. It looks like it captured her personality.

  178. m3twin says:

    #6 is very genuine, but #1 and #3 are my favorites. Her eyes pop in #1!!

  179. scrapnqeen says:

    Wow, it's so hard to choose. I like #4 and 6 the best. She is just gorgeous!!

  221. Hockeygirl19 says:

    She's a beautiful girl and photographs well. It was hard to choose a favorite, but if I HAVE to….lol…
    I'd go with the first one. The last one would be my second, just in case you were wondering!

  222. Sara says:

    #1 is my favorite

    Great shots!

  223. Jennifer says:

    #1 (or #3)

  224. RNBsmom says:

    #3. It would be #1 but the background competes with her hair especially in the upper left hand corner.

  225. Buckle My Shoe Mama says:

    #3 is my first choice. While I love some of the coices with more background, for a memory like senior pictures, I'd choose a close-up, and #3 is the best I think. Great photo shoot, and yes, she is beautiful! :)

    Too hard to pick just one!!!

  231. Denise says:

    #3 for sure! The coloring is that one really makes her stand out. Lighting & composition is fantastic!

  232. marilyn says:

    #6 and #3 (for close-up). Love the genuine joy in #6!!!
