Kamryn - Glen Allen High School Class of 2018 Senior

June 22, 2017 Shannon Pierce
Glen-Allen-High-School-Senior-Girl-2018

I'm so excited to kick off Summer with my first class of 2018 senior! I was so stoked when Kamryn contacted me months ago about booking her senior portrait session! 
Kamryn started the day by getting her hair done at Imago Hair Salon on W Main street. With fresh, beautiful curls and the cutest flower crown we were all set to start!

Just like a true Richmond native, Kamryn has a heart for art and wanted to incorporate that into her session. We headed down to Shockoe Bottom near the Canal Walk to start her pictures at the murals.

We were concerned that the flower crown wouldn't be very noticeable but now I can't imagine the shoot without it! It was the perfect combination of pretty and artistic! Colors everywhere!!

My sweet, sexy, goonball, funny Valentine! 
Happy Love Day!
Happy love day everyone!
And happy birthday to my lovely friend @saramaslyn 😍😍😍
How beautiful is this woman??!!
I need new tunes! Tell me what you've been listening to!
"Before the internet every girl was a lot more special" -Hank, from the movie Swiss Army Man.
I watched this for the first time last night and cannot stop dwelling on certain quotes from it.
This one in particular struck something in me. The internet has hurt us girls in so many ways. And in other ways its helped us rise to, and continue to rise to new levels of justice.

Girls, we know how special we are. I hope this reminds you to know that when the internet tears you down. When people come after you through their stupid little rectangle of nonsense. When you're feeling lonely and feel that posting a selfie will boost your self esteem, if only for a minute. 
I hope when you put down your rectangle of disappointment you'll be aware that without that phone you are more valuable than ever. That you find your worth in yourself and your individuality. In YOUR ideas, YOUR passions, in YOUR body, and YOUR talents. I hope that you remember that it's possible to be unstoppable because you are a women, and you were designed for so much more than you can even comprehend. I hope that when you see a photograph of yourself you see magnificent beauty because of who YOU are. I hope that when others "like" you, you're LOVING you!

I challenge you this week to listen to your heart. Not what the internet zombies are trying so hard to make you believe. Because we all know that zombies are stupid and girls rule. 
XOXO

CHALLENGE!!
Tag one of your girls in the comments with a compliment about how amazing you think they are!
PAUSE! Pause your scrolling for some human interaction!!
Let's get to know each other! Ask me something. Tell me about yourself. How's your life is going? What are you doing this weekend?

Side note: often small business owners will use the hashtag #FridayIntroductions to tell people all about their dog, business, favorite junk food, and how much they love lipstick. All good things. 
But this platform can be used for SOOO much more than that. I've reaped some incredible friendships over IG by being real and talking honestly with each other. 
So let's chat. Speak your mind kids. Send me a message if you have something personal you'd like to chat about.
Tell me the last movie you watched, what your favorite color is(mine are listed in my second to last ig post. The last movie I watched was Super 8). 📸 @saramaslyn
Anyone else feel like they can't catch a break from mental overload? 
How do you handle it? 
I've never been a journal person but I feel like it could be a helpful tool, especially with the 4,719 ideas I have each day. Any tips?
Theres something about the color orange and good company that just warms my soul.

What's your happy color??
I'm loving close up, neautral background portraits right now. It gives all the attention to the details of the human being right in front of you. It makes you look deep into their eyes and share in their expression, finding yourself appreciating all that one is. 🙏
My entire front yard looks like a Louisiana swamp land, but the sun made a 360 and I'm dreaming of dresses!!!
Waiting for the day when you walk outside and feel the warm sun, spot a bud on a tree, and feel like the queen of Spring! 😍😍😍
Who is/was excited for their senior photo shoot? What's the number one thing you could change(past seniors), or one thing you are looking forward to the most(current/future seniors) about your session?
And in the spirit of celebrating here is my last favorite photo of the year. I love confetti man. It's too much fun! Just look st sweet Howdys face!

Happy New Year everyone! ✌
