Marie’s mom called me from Ohio because her daughter wanted to have her senior pictures done at their second home in Carillon Beach. She said her daughter was beautiful, fun, had a great personality and wanted some Florida style out of the ordinary images for her senior portraits. Well, she was right!! Marie is funny, beautiful and intelligent! We had a blast! I hope you enjoy her images as much as I enjoyed photographing them!

Marie Class of 2011 ~ Carillon Beach, Fl ~
August 24, 2010Bryt ~ Senior Portraits, class of 2011 ~
August 8, 2010
I loved photographing Bryt! She was game for anything and seemed like she was having a great time during the whole session! We mixed up some high fashion with some plain old fun! Bryt wanted something that the school appointed senior portrait photographer was unable to do for her. She wanted her personality to shine through, she wanted someone to take the time to create a piece of art that she will look back at in 20 years with fondness…she wanted sass, fun and style! That’s why she came to me. We had fun, got a bit wet and ate laughed a ton! Hope you enjoy her images!






Class of 2011 Senior Portraits ~~ Heather~~
August 3, 2010Heather came down to Destin from Georga with her family this summer and wanted her senior portraits done in a very artistic and unique way. So they came to me to give her some high fashion based fun and unique images. We began at one of my favorite places, Eden State Gardens and then went to the Sandestin Property. Wow, you could shoot there for days and not use the same place twice! It was simply wonderful. Heather also plays tennis, but didn’t want the typical in a tennis uniform shot. She wanted one in a classy dress and heels showing that she was fierce and owned the court, but in a very feminine manner. I think we hit that nail right on the head and ended up with a shot that could have come out of Cosmo or Vogue. Okay at least Vanity Fare. Take a look for yourself! Enjoy and leave a comment if you would like. We love feedback!



Hey blog fans! You may remember about a month ago I blogged a really pretty senior from Choctaw High School named Liz. Well, now meet her twin sister Kady! While Liz was quiet and reserved and we made some beautiful images reflecting that, Kady is the polar opposite. She never meets a stranger and is on the varsity cheerleading squad. It was so much fun to photograph both girls and give them each their own individual look. I found some cool places for Kady’s shoot and and we made some great images. Not your standard in and out cookie cutter senior portraits! If you want more for yourself out of your senior portraits, give me a call at 850-699-3403!

Devon ~ Divalicious Senior Portrait ~
July 19, 2010I met Devon this summer through mutual friends. She is from the Atlanta area and came down to spend the summer with her grandmother in Florida. She had seen some work I had done for our friends and wanted me to do her senior portraits. Now Devon is full of spunk, a fashionista and on top of that does poetry slams! Her poems are actually very, very good! We got together and talked about some things we wanted to accomplish and then we went and had a great time!! She even introduced me to the rapper Waka Flocka Flame’s music. Well, so maybe I’m not ready to be a huge fan of his, but it wasn’t bad. It was a pleasure getting to know her and I hope you enjoy her images.
Choctaw Senior Portraits ~~ Ashley ~~
July 13, 2010Ashley is so cute and bubbly! She was able to rock each and every outfit and scene change of her senior portrait session. Okay well sessions, Mother Nature didn’t allow us to finish up her session the first day as a huge pop up thunderstorm came along and ruined our outdoor plans. But we came back and got them done with gusto! Enjoy a sample of her images!

Choctaw Class of ’11 Senior Model Tra ~Flipping Out~
July 12, 2010Hey guys, thanks for checking out my blog! Here is our last Choctawhatchee High School Senior Model, Tra. He’s got charisma, charm and some mad athletic skills! Not only is he a football player (check out the stats…he helped crush arch rival Fort Walton Beach High School last year with a touch down) but he’s also a cheerleader! And did I mention his very infectious smile? He knows how to quietly work the camera and looks great! Remember, to grab a card from him for an ultra cool deal on your senior portrait session!!
Liz ~ Class of ’11 Senior Portraits ~
July 10, 2010Liz came to the Red Dog for her senior portraits last week. She will be a Choctaw graduate and is currently in the ROTC at school. I had a blast and her infectious smile is absolutely wonderful. She seems to have her priorities in line and I think she will do well! In the meantime enjoy Liz’s senior portraits and look for her twin action next week as her sister comes in to see me as well.
Choctaw High School Senior Model ~Alec~
June 23, 2010
Alec is our first guy model from Choctaw this year. It’s a daunting task to set the bar for the other guy’s senior portraits, but I think we did it! With his fun sense of humor and easygoing spirit we had fun capturing just who he is at this point in his life. And let me tell you…they aren’t your mom’s senior portraits! But just in case, we threw a couple in there that will feel more like her style too! Alec is a pretty diverse guy, he’s in ROTC and is on the track and cross country teams as well as a person who enjoy’s our beaches in the area. We have tried to mix all of Alec and come out with some great images! Enjoy! And remember class of 2011, for a discount on your senior portraits see Alec or any of my senior models for a very special discount card. Supplies are limited and it is first come first serve on the cards!
