Lauren // Senior Pictures

Sep 19, 2013 Portrait
i have known Lauren since 2007...
& it's hard to believe that somehow she is already a SENIOR & graduating Class of 2014!!!

Lauren is an amazing girl,,,
& i know that it the word 'amazing' can be used a bit too lightly at times, but trust me when i tell you,
she is truly ah!mazing.

she is a bright light with the biggest of hearts.
she is giving, sweet & super talented.
she is creative & funny & smart.
she is a wise soul with a youthful heart.
she is beautiful - inside AND out.

as i have been editing these images, my heart has been smiling & my mind has been reminiscing. i can remember meeting her when she was 11... she is just as adorable & full of life now as she was then! however, she has also grown into quite an extraordinary young woman, whom i am beyond proud to know & completely honored to have captured during this special time in her life - her senior portraits!

below are some of my top favorites from her senior portrait session, however be sure to check out the slideshow at the end of this post for even MORE images!

Kimberly drew our attention to this amazing orange pop-of-color field

Lauren, sweet Lauren!
i am filled with so much emotion for you during this special time in your life.
remember to embrace every day, to take a good look around you :
your friends, your family, your classrooms, your hallways, your theater,
& SAVOR it all!!!
take it all in.
for this is just the beginning...

and remember,
the path is open wide,
the road will be rocky at times, but it will always be good.
you will never be off path, despite the curves & the bumps.
just follow that beautiful heart of yours & take every thing,
every single thing,
one step, one breath & one smile at a time.

all my love always,

ksen
