Twirling Senior at Chippewa

Twirling is so underrated, you guys. It’s been my goal this year as a senior photographer to get my clients to show more movement in their pictures. And whenever they wear a dress, twirling is absolutely essential. Wouldn’t you agree? Sometimes I’ll have my senior actually spin around, but in this case, Ashlyn most often simply held on to her dress and lightly twirled without going around in a circle. Seriously so cute in pictures!

Last time I blogged, I showed you the amazing pictures we got from the first half of Ashlyn’s senior session. Isn’t she lovely? Today, I’m taking you back to my favorite location for more of Ashlyn. The Chippewa Nature Center is really one of the best locations for any photo session, and I’ll often see other local photographers working away while I’m there.

What you can’t tell from these pictures is how many mosquitoes were out and waiting for us when we got there. I will always have my repellent with me from now on.

And here she is.

Isn’t her smile fantastic?

You can see down here on the right we actually did do a full circle with twirling. That always gets the best smiles from my seniors. 😀

With this next outfit though, we got our twirling game on! I love it when my clients wear a dress of some kind for one of their outfits. Some clients have even worn prom dresses to their sessions. Ashlyn’s dress here is perfect for this location, don’t you think?

Wearing layers is also a great idea for senior outfits. It helps add dimension, and it mixes up an outfit.

For her final look, Ashlyn brought this along. Gah, doesn’t she look great in this??

One of the best parts of the whole session was when the calf decided to come up and snack on Ashlyn. 🙂

Ashlyn gets her final images on a flash drive and her beautiful products thsi week! And I can’t wait for her to get them all and for them to be hung up in her house.

Here’s what Ashlyn said about her experience with me: “Eve was awesome to work with!! And I had so much fun taking pictures with her. I would definitely recommend her to my friends for senior pictures or any pictures in general. I’m so happy with the quality of how the pictures worked out!”

Good luck your senior year, Ashlyn! And when life gets tough, don’t forget to twirl.
