Hallie spent most of her senior session singing and dancing to the Mamma Mia soundtrack, but it definitely kept her energy up! I love this set from her senior portraits on a bridge.

This day was CRAZY smokey and hazy. If you want to avoid wildfire smoke for your senior session, book earlier in the summer! August can be a little bit hazy.

Dear Senior,

I am so happy you are reading this because that means you made the amazing decision to be on Olivia’s team 2020! Prepare yourself for an experience you will never forget, full of tons of fun and new friends! I have known Olivia since 8th grade and always knew she was the perfect choice for my senior photos. I watched her take my older sisters photos and was part of a teen shoot for her so knew she was the perfect fit.  Not only does she take the most beautiful photos she is also one of the kindest souls around. She will make your senior photo experience one you’ll never forget.

I started planning for my senior shoot nearly a month before the date creating a Pinterest board of outfit, makeup and hair ideas. I met with Olivia to share my ideas and discuss location options and everything fell into place, she made it so simple and easy. I really couldn’t imagine this experience without her. Leading up to the day of my shoot was so exciting, we got all the final details together –  nails, outfits, hair and makeup styles all stress free because of Olivia.

Finally came the day of my shoot! I was beyond thrilled and came in to the studio that day full of excitement. Olivia made me feel so at ease knowing that my photos would be perfect. After hair and makeup we headed to Sauvies Island to start the shoot. The whole time I had so much fun. I felt comfortable and free to be myself with Olivia. She also helped me find the right poses and keep my head from tilting for a yearbook photo (huge credit to her on this because it was a real struggle for me).

Following my shoot we made plans to meet with Olivia and see my photos. They turned out perfect, i loved them all so much and I was so thankful that I chose Olivia to shoot my photos no one could’ve made me feel more comfortable in front of the camera or bring a more genuine smile to my face. I was able to select my portraits in many different formats and now have them to share with my friends and family.

I truly cannot stress enough how happy you are going to be that you chose Olivia to do your photos. . It really is the best experience in town and you will not regret it. Your shoot will be everything you dreamed of and then some! It will be a Senior memory you never forget!

XOXO, Hallie
