Soccer is quite possibly the most popular sport here in Midland, Michigan. Why is that? I mean, aside from being an awesome sport. I remember when my family and I were getting ready to move to Michigan and were looking at houses to buy. We were house hunting on Mother’s Day weekend and passed soccer fields that were completely packed. Our realtor said that was the big weekend of the year for soccer here, and now I wonder if Maddy happened to be on that field all those years ago.
Maddy is incredibly sweet, patient, and so, so calm and chill. Chill senior sessions are the best senior sessions. Although her favorite thing in the world does not happen to be getting her picture taken, she really did a great job humoring me and following directions. Oh, and she also just happens to be so beautiful.
Dow Gardens is perhaps one of my most popular locations for senior sessions, and for good reason. How many cities can boast a place like this? We started there for Maddy’s session, and we had beautiful sunshine and lovely weather for her entire shoot.
Soccer
Yes, she does play soccer, and although I’ve never seen her in action, I’m willing to bet she’s amazing. 🙂 We grabbed a few shots with her in her uniform and with her soccer ball, and after a few pictures in the Children’s Garden, we made our way to the Nature Center.
The white dress has been extremely popular this year, and I love that! White is such a great, neutral color on everyone, and it helps the seniors stand out when they wear it. My favorite pictures of the whole session are the ones with Maddy in her long-sleeved blue shirt. So, so gorgeous. Though the ones at the very end in a sun dress could rival those.
Here’s what Maddy’s mom said about the session: “We are thrilled with our daughter’s Senior pictures. Eve did a great job of making the session casual and laid-back. By creating this atmosphere, she was able to capture true Maddy smiles. Love the results and enjoyed working with this kind, talented professional.”
Thank you both for entrusting me with these senior pictures! Best of luck the rest of your senior year, Maddy!
