Meet Karelia (or Kari for short). The air was crisp and cold for this awesome senior portrait session down in Arizona. Her stunning natural beauty and grace was highlighted by the glow of the crisp air and surrounding desert in the winter. Like most girls, she was super nervous at first, but soon realized that I am all about having fun.
She also realized how crazy I am when it comes to shooting. Driving along when all of the sudden I would stop and yell “HERE!” and make her pose in the middle of a dry river bed, an abandoned lake bridge or in the street with oncoming traffic.
These images were edited using the new VSCO film presets and they came out absolutely stunning.














































That picture above. One of my absolute favorites.
