The morning of pictures, K.’s Mom called me to change the location of the photo shoot to an area a little more quiet.  I am so glad she did!  The weather was perfect and the location was beautiful; complete with pole fencing, grazing horses, beautiful looming trees, and a bright red barn.

Love, love, love it (I’m such a country girl at heart)!

Meet Jordan.  He’s my neighbour and he graduated this past week-end.  Woop, Woop!  Of the three years that I’ve lived across the street from him, it took me two years to see him in person…outside.     Either I’m not outside that often, or he prefers his teenage basement cave.  Either way, we have enjoyed getting to know him this year.

By the way, you may remember his parents who were the feature of a Trash the Dress shoot  I did last year. 

Anywhoooo, back to Jordan.  His Mom asked me to take ”A Photo or TWO”.  Ummmmm, yah…never ask a photographer to take a couple of photos if you actually want a couple of photos.  That’s not how I roll.

In the middle of our mini-session, Jordan’s phone rang and he said (and I quote): 
“Can I call you back?  I’m in the middle of a photo-shoot.”  lol

This set of photos seems incomplete to me as I happened to get a shot of Jordan with his Mom.  What makes this photo special is the fact she walked across the street to my little studio in her fuzzy flannel PJ’s and bed hair and posed for a photo with her son because she’s fun like that (that’s why I love her).  Maybe if we razzz her a little, she’ll let me blog that one.  If not, you’ll have to use your imagination ;)

Congrats Jordan!  Here’s to more memories outside the walls of your teenage basement cave.

She’s going to graduate this week-end.  I asked her Mom if it all goes by as fast as they say it does.  She told me it really does.   You blink your eye and they’ve gone and grown up.  Mom is so proud of her beautiful grad and I could see it in her eyes as she watched me take pictures of her daughter.

Meet Paige’s escort Shaun.  We didn’t know how to tie his tie.  We actually had to call in reinforcements (Paige’s Dad) to come and tie it!
