Okay, so I went a little OTT with the processing of these… but hey… she's a senior and that's what senior portraits are! I happen to LOVE LOVE LOVE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE!!!!!! I forgot how much I love doing senior portraits…. thanks Ashley for reminding me!

AYKM?!?!??!? Bryce, you're a hair GENIUS! (if only you weren't in Muncie!

)

HELLOOOOOOO MUSCLES (or bumps

… okay, that'll only be funny to the people who were there… whatever, I laughed!)

WOWZERS!!!!! I'm sorry that you're a MODEL! Mikey's fave

WORK IT OUTTTTT!!!!!

FAAAAAAVORITE!!!!!!!!!!!

Ever look into someone's eyes and feel like you've known them for a long time even though you've just met? I do. I love this photo.

MUNCIE, Ind. For me, when we photograph a senior… it's like I'm having an overdose of creative energy… and I love love love it! We want to do it all of the time! That's definitely something we're going to further push in 2009… YAY!!

Ashley, we had a blast photographing you, laughing with you, WORKING IT OUT with you and watching you be YOU! I cannot wait to see what the your future holds. Please please please don't let anything ever hold you back from your dreams…

LOVE!

Very nice set…great post processing. I love senior shoots too. It’s like all the energy & beauty from their youth shows up and controls the flow of the session. I’m glad to hear you started with Seniors too b/c that’s where I’m at right now…lots of seniors! It is so darn fun!

My favorite shot from this set is the 3rd one up going backwards.

That was a great Photo Session. I like how you make ordinary places look so fantastic.
And the girl is adorable.
Perfect combination!!!

One question for Ashley … how does it feel to be the hottest senior and have the most fabulous pictures EVER?!!! These are ridiculous, I can’t pick a favorite!

Just so you know- You’re going to take my wedding pictures, except Mike’s not allowed to leave half-wau through. haha, Bobbi+Mike you rock!

DoodleBunzAugust 6, 2008 - 10:10 pm

Besides the fact that the shots are terrific, she’s a beautiful model!

Becka KnightAugust 6, 2008 - 8:04 pm

So fun! I love them all! And I especially love the one against the wall with the volleyball (I played in highschool and would have KILLED for a shot like that!)

HeatherbauersAugust 6, 2008 - 6:06 pm

My fav is your fav…love how the eyes totally match the background! I enjoy the processing here, seems very earthy and real-I’m sure very much like her.

Dustin FrancisAugust 6, 2008 - 3:55 pm

Those are so yummy and delicious!

Alyssa LangAugust 6, 2008 - 2:40 pm

Dang woman could you POSSIBLY be any more talented?? I think not. You guys are so awesome.

Kate "Phenomenal" MartinAugust 6, 2008 - 2:02 pm

The green-tastic shot is my fave…the foliage! those eyeeessss! WOWZA!

I love that you love doing what you love.

Blair Van BusselAugust 6, 2008 - 1:57 pm

ahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! these are out of control amazing! I am lovin every one of these – theres no way I could pick a favorite. And yes, i have to agree – her hair is to die for. How the heck do you book such hot clients?

Jess (studio3z)August 6, 2008 - 1:37 pm

Excellent work you guys!! I am finding that I am really loving seniors too, and we are hoping to really push it next year as well!!! I agree with your statement- it is like creativity overload, and it rocks.

Ashley totally rocked this, and you and Mikey got GREAT shots, and I love the PP you did on these. The last close-up shot is my fav of the bunch. I lost my breath on it.

ErinAugust 6, 2008 - 12:58 pm

This is why I love stalking your blog. Your creative energy is unmatched. I find seniors to be the most difficult to photographer…for (sometimes) they are a little unsure of themselves in front of a camera….but your shoot perfectly illustrates what it means to make someone “express yourself”. I admire your photos, but more the personality you add and get from people you shoot. AMAZING!!!
Thanks for the inspiration
Erin

KariAugust 6, 2008 - 11:03 am

I wish my senior pictures looked like that. And Bryce is a total hair genius. I miss him! I was very spoiled when I lived in Muncie….

zachAugust 6, 2008 - 10:19 am

Now those are senior photos:) Out of this world, spectacular.

mindyAugust 6, 2008 - 10:12 am

mindyAugust 6, 2008 - 10:10 am

seriously the coolest senior session I’ve ever seen. These are so freakin creative and different and so….BOBBI&MIKE! I love them all! I can’t even list a favorite because I can’t pick. I love all the pp on them too, perfect choices for each image.

can I be like you when I grow up?

Steph HAugust 6, 2008 - 10:05 am

those scaffolding shots rock my world.

oh and her hair is crazy awesome.

brandy jAugust 6, 2008 - 10:04 am

I LOVE seniors as well and these are EXCELLENT! I can see that you were having a blast! She was a fantastic model as well! I am sure you will have no problem booking lots and lots of seniors in 2009!

Hope all is well with you guys!

NicoleAugust 6, 2008 - 9:37 am

WOW. What a gorgeous girl! And those legs? The longest I’ve EVEEEEEEEER seen. You guys did a rockin’ job. : )

Giovanna MandelAugust 6, 2008 - 9:36 am

AllisonAugust 6, 2008 - 9:26 am
