I had a great time hanging out with this group of Senior Graduates.  I was shooting the cover for this month’s issue of Our Town Magazine and we were ready to celebrate the beginning of summer and being out of high school forever.  Hanging out by the pool seemed like the perfect spot.  These Seniors have grown up in the Smyrna, Mableton or the Powder Springs area and started off together as preschool and early elementary students. And now look at them all grown up about to go off on their own.  Here are some favorite pictures of our time together. atlanta lifestyle teen seniors

high school senior portraitsWhere has the time gone? I can’t believe Shelly is already a Senior in High School and thinking about colleges.  She is so smart I know she will have many to choose from!  {One word for you, Shelly: AUBURN!}  Her Mom and I have been waiting for four years to be able to take her Senior Pictures. It was so much fun and I think she is gorgeous inside and out.  high school senior portraits high school senior portraits

Best Senior Photographer SmyrnaCollege Bound

Another one of my Seniors is off to college now. I was so happy to be able to get that last family portrait before he left to start a new chapter in his life.  I feel for the Moms sending off their boys. I can’t image how hard that will be for me. Luckily he isn’t too far away but I know their home is feeling a little empty right now. The future is bright for him so I am excited to see what is ahead for both of these boys!

As a bonus we were able to also capture updated pictures to mark 8th grade and the end of Middle School which is also a really special and exciting time.  Lots of milestones happening in this family!

I had so much fun photographing this family. They were easy-going and pretty funny.  It was a milestone for this family because their youngest has graduated from high school and they will now have two in college.  This was probably the last time they will have professional portraits made until someone gets married.  They certainly made the most of it and now have beautiful portraits hanging in their home to always remember this time.  I always encourage families with High School Seniors to have a family photo session after graduation while everyone is still home and able to take part.  It is amazing how hard it is to get everyone together once kids start moving away.

It is a great time for High School Seniors to have their portraits made. I still have some spots just for Seniors next month so contact me if you need more details.  The light in the late afternoon is gorgeous!

Before it totally gets away from me I wanted to share some images from my trip to Charleston, South Carolina last month for the National Association of Child Photographers Retreat.  You can also see the NAPCP newsletter with more pictures and details at this link.  I was honored to have some of my own images featured in that publication and blog. Warning: lots of pictures below.  I can give you a better visual of my week with some outtakes of my photographer friends as we were out and about town taking new headshots for each other.  We also had the opportunity to work on stylized High School Senior shoots that were a lot of fun and a little exhausting.  Think speed dating for Senior Sessions and you get the idea!

I communicate better in photos and that is why Instagram is my favorite social media. Below are some of my Instagram photos capturing my week in Charleston.  Follow me at @lisaphillipson to keep up with the latest in my business.

Dunwoody Senior Photographer

Dunwoody Senior Photography: This has been the coldest Spring!  Not what I have envisioned for some of my outdoor sessions!  This afternoon was so chilly and very windy.  Only a guy could be such a trooper and not let it bother him.  So, we pressed on and managed to have a great time despite the dreary weather.  These were all taken at my Studio in Marietta which allowed us to easily run inside to recover from the weather when needed.  I so love the classic, timeless look of black and white pictures.

However, my clients end up ordering color even if they thought they would get B&W.  I think they are just so much more vibrant and clear than what people print at their own labs that they can’t resist.  And, they look great framed on the wall.

Without color, how else would you know what color Ryan’s shoes were?!
