The energy during a senior session is infectious. Whether we are twirling through street alleys, sharing countless giggles, or having dance parties in corn field (aaall very “normal” things), I am always left with a heart filled to the brim.

I love getting to hear and know my #HannahSmithSeniors stories and where they are headed next. Each experience is unique, but they all end the same way: with laughs and goodbye hugs, because after our time together we always feel like soul sisters and just don’t want to leave each others sight.

I love getting to provide an experience that goes deeper than just pretty pictures. Cultivating a space where girls can step away from the hustle of senior year and come as they are, feeling truly beautiful and confident in their own skin — all areas I am so passionate about encouraging young woman in! I swear I am the most joyful gal, like how on earth is this my job!?

This session is particularly dear to my heart because I had the honor of working with my sweet cousin Lauren! So when I say  the “Hannah Smith Senior family” this time around I truly mean blood related 😉  Lauren is a bombshell and I can hardly *waaait* for you to see the magic we captured!

Meet the lovely, Lauren >>

I love this.

My goal for this season is to step out of my comfort zone and try something new with each shoot. For these portraits we played around with the lighting in a area I would typically avoid (due to harsh direct sunlight) but instead we used the gravel as a natural reflector to bounce the sun off of and created a pretty sun-kissed glow. such a fan!!!

 shoutout to ransom jewelry for all the gorgeous jewels! i just started a collaboration with the lovely erica meurer of ransom to offer a high end boutique custom experience for my senior girls! they get to hand pick the jewelry they want to wear in the beginning of their session (earrings, necklaces, hand-chains, bracelets..etc) and then i style them up before we begin shooting. safe to say my #hannahsmithsenior girls have been lovingggg it!

I love me a classic B&W <3

Lauren, my girl!!! you are absolutely stunning

 Rule of thumb: the more adventurous + willing you are to listen to bazaar Hannah requests = the more epic portraits you will have

 

Xoxo,

Hannah
