I am so excited that it’s spring senior portrait season again! The days are getting longer, the weather is warming up, and the trees are full of gorgeous colors! I always have the best time during my sessions and Malika’s was no exception. She’s a senior from Fluvanna County High School’s Class of 2015, in Palmyra, Virginia, and not only is she beautiful, she’s an absolute sweetheart too!
We had her session at one of my go-to locations in Charlottesville, Virginia. It’s such a fantastic place! I’ve had many senior sessions there but every time I go, I seem to find something a little different! Many of the trees had lost their blooms but we were lucky enough to find a few that still had some gorgeous purple flowers on them. We then moved over to another area where they had some Dogwood trees and a cool path running between them. The trees, the super green grass, Malika’s beautiful self…it was so all so wonderful!!
I’ve done the glitter shot a few times before but to change things up, I had Malika throw it up in the air instead of blowing it out of her hands. I absolutely love the way it turned out! She really looks like she’s celebrating being finished with high school…which I’m sure she is!! 🙂
I really enjoyed spending the afternoon with Malika and her mother Minerva. The weather was perfect and they both were so much fun to work with!! Enjoy the rest of your senior year and good luck with your future Malika!!
