We had to reschedule this session three times. Yes, three times! And all the times we canceled was because of the rain. Don’t get me wrong, I really, really love rain. But I also really, really wanted to take this girl’s pictures for her senior session. I first met Grace and her mom at our pre-consultation way back in July. I knew instantly that we were a good match for Grace’s senior pictures. We talked about what Grace had been involved in over the summer, where she wanted her pictures taken, and what her plans were for after she graduates. We also discussed clothing choices, and they both got to see a few different prints and products I offer.

Reschedule #1

We had her session scheduled for sometime in August, and as the day approached, it looked like it was going to rain. The rain started in the evening, and it kept going. We hoped it would stop in time for her senior pictures, and we even met up at Chippewa Nature Center for them, but it just kept raining. So, we had to reschedule for another day.

#2

The next date wasn’t until September, and guess what? Yep, you guessed it. It looked like rain again. UGH! I thought for sure we wouldn’t get rained out twice and have to reschedule again, but as the evening got closer I just didn’t think it was going to work out. Sure enough, it poured for hours that evening.

#3

We rescheduled once more, this time at the very end up of September. Grace had a hair stylist she preferred and really wanted to use, and she wasn’t able to get an appointment with her until at the end of the month. We all crossed our fingers that Mother Nature would cooperate with us. And what do ya know? It was supposed to rain AGAIN on that Saturday! We hurriedly got everything switched to be able to take her senior pictures a couple days earlier, and the day couldn’t have been more lovely. Take a look.

You’re going to see me say this again, but I think she looks like an angel. Isn’t she stunning? This one shows off her eyes so well.

I’d say that hairdresser did a great job!

And here are a couple faves of mine from the whole session. This spot always gets the best light for these sessions.

I had so many favorites from this wonderful session at the Chippewa Nature Center! I think this place might be my favorite place for senior sessions. In a couple weeks, I’ll show you what the last half looked like. And trust me, you’re not going to want to miss it. The light! The fields! This amazing young woman! Stay tuned. 😉
