Holly Carpenter

Friday morning I shot what I think has become my favorite session of the season with my friend Holly. I have only known Holly for a year but in the time I have known her she has blessed my life infinitely. She impresses me weekly with her creativity, heart for Christ, and joyful spirit. 

Holly is graduating from Baylor in two weeks with a degree in interior design and going to work at a firm in the DFW area. While there, I know that God will use her to do great things as an ambassador to his kingdom. Congrats, Holly! To quote my father: "Good luck; we're all counting on you!" (No pressure.)

I've taken to calling this one "The perfect picture."

HER EYES!!!

I am obsessed with this location. I think the series of images we got here are by far my favorite from the whole morning!

This was taken in one of Holly's favorite places in Waco; a coffee house called Dichotomy.

Dani Salazar

After our scheduled shoot was rained out on Tuesday morning, Dani and I were able to reschedule for Wednesday afternoon. However, evidently it was Baylor senior picture day and no one told us. We ran into at least 6 other people taking senior photos! It was crazy. But, in spite on the craziness, Dani and I were able to have a really productive session.

Dani is a political science major and after she graduates she will be moving to DC to pursue a career in public policy. In the meantime, Dani will intern at the Capitol next year while applying to law schools. Good luck, Dani! From our little bit of time together I have no doubt that you will do great things!

(Special shoutout to Tim and Keon. Thanks for letting us borrow you to throw glitter, guys. I honestly think you could put it on your resumes: Professional Glitterers.) 

The First of Many!!

Last week I had the opportunity to do a shoot with a friend of mine named Sarah. In May Sarah will graduate from Baylor University with a double major in Arabic and Middle East Studies in addition to International Studies. In her time at Baylor, Sarah studied abroad in Israel and played for the softball team. Here are a few of my favorite moments from our afternoon together!

This is one of my favorites from the day.

Sarah and her roommate found this beautiful field of Bluebonnets and Indian Paint Brushes on accident.

Don't worry...we only used flowers that had already been trampled in the never-ending quest for wildflower portraits.
