Lacey {Oklahoma High School Senior Portraits}

Posted on April 28, 2010

This beautiful girl is my sweet cousin Lacey. Seeing her this age is kinda surreal for me, I mean I remember when she was born, how on earth can she be a senior in high school already??? This weekend I picked her up and we drove around finding interesting locations for pictures, we had a ton of fun!! Here are a few of my favorites:

As we were driving along I spotted this gorgeous setting on the side of the road and I pulled over so fast! I really love trees…even dead ones that were most likely attacked by the Christmas blizzard.

And can you even get over this ROCKIN’ AWESOME RESTAURANT!!! I’ve had my eye on this gem for a long time! I’m so glad Lacey was up for being photographed in front of it.

I was really worried I’d never find gorgeous ivy to photograph once I left Germany. To be honest I was worried I wouldn’t find anything even comparable with the backdrop Germany offered, but I’m being pleasantly surprised all the time!! There is beauty hiding behind every nook and cranny around Oklahoma! And can you get over Lacey’s eyes here??? I’m insanely jealous of her AMAZING EYELASHES!!!

For a long time I’ve been trying to pin point what my favorite type of photography is. I’ve enjoyed photographing engagements, families, children, newborns, maternity, boudoir and even dabbled with taking some landscape shots, but I keep coming back again and again to what is quickly becoming my very favorite of them all – teenagers. I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!! It’s a blast because when I’m photographing a teenager they are usually so willing to take a chance and do something random and off the wall such as… agreeing to bring along a piece of furniture from their room to the woods:

or get their modeling on in front of piles of of dead tires:

Or jumping frantically without even questioning my sanity:

Thanks Lacey for modeling for me. I’m soooo glad I’m back in Oklahoma so we can hang out! Sooooo excited for you as you graduate high school and experience all that is waiting for you!
