In this blog post, we are going to take a look at Emily’s Shelbyville Senior Photography session. She is a Class of 2020 graduate of Martha Layne Collins High School. When we first met, I instantly noticed Emily’s happy and fun personality and just knew we were going to have a good time together. I really enjoyed working with her. She was open to whatever I thought would work best as far as settings and location, and really, she was up for anything!

Now let’s get to the good part - her session! 

Emily brought this cute coral top, fun and flowy to our session. It wasn’t too dressy nor was it too casual. Paired with a pair of ripped jeans, it proved to be the perfect look for our first location - a nice rustic barn. 

With her nestled in the shade, I used strobes to add just the right amount of light to her, positioning it exactly where I wanted it, and pairing it with some beautiful directional natural sunlight coming from the rising sun. Not every senior photography session needs to showcase them looking directly at the camera as you can see by how great these pictures turned out! Don’t ever be afraid to try out different angles, you most often end up with some interesting and different beautiful portraits.
