When a client arrives for their session with their beloved bearded dragon, aptly named Beardy, you swiftly tap into your creative reservoir to come up with unique posing ideas. The challenge is that I have never taken photographs of a bearded dragon to use as a prop during a session. However, I didn't allow that to hinder me. I love a good challenge, and Beardy was an exceptional subject. Abigail loved that dragon, and I found this endeavor surprisingly less challenging than anticipated. Abigail, who is shy, sweet, and introverted, would always light up whenever her beloved dragon was nearby. This worked perfectly for us, as we captured some beautiful photos. August is an ideal time to take photos due to the beautiful lighting and perfect backdrop. Congratulations, Abigail!

"Our senior session was absolutely perfect. I brought a reluctant and shy teen, who was so unsure about everything and hates her picture taken. Erin was amazing with her and found those little things that got her to smile and engage with the camera. The pictures turned out even more beautiful than I imagined and we are so grateful for Erin capturing this moment. We will be back with her younger sister for her senior portraits in a few years! The price was perfect, communication and timeliness was great, it was a great experience!"
