I still can’t believe our final senior team session for the Class of 2025 has come and gone. These incredible young women have grown so much over the past year, and this last shoot together at Sutton Wilderness Park in Norman, OK was the perfect way to celebrate everything they’ve accomplished and everything that is still ahead.

The session was filled with so many emotions excitement, fun, laughter, and a whole lot of love. As each girl arrived in her cap and gown, it really hit me that this was it… their final session as part of our team. The same girls who nervously walked into our skincare and makeup class months ago have now become confident, joyful, and really enjoy being with one another. That transformation is always one of my favorite parts of running a senior team, watching new friendships spark and grow throughout the year.

We kicked off the evening with individual cap and gown photos. The light was soft and golden, and Sutton Wilderness provided a gorgeous natural backdrop for these portraits. Each senior radiated confidence and accomplishment, and I loved capturing their unique style and personality. Whether they paired their gowns with heels, boots, or bare feet, every girl made her moment shine.

Then came the group shots and what a sight! Watching them toss their caps in the air together, laughing and cheering, reminded me just how special this group has been. There’s something so powerful about that shared experience. These girls supported one another through the ups and downs of senior year, and this session was a full-circle moment for all of us.

After the cap and gown portion, we had a quick outfit change into college t-shirts. The vibe shifted to one of excitement and pride as the girls proudly showed off where they’ll be heading next—OU, OSU, UCO, and several other schools were represented. It’s always fun to see their personalities come through in these images. Some girls posed with sass, others with sweet smiles, all full of anticipation for what’s to come.

As I photographed them in their new school colors, I couldn’t help but feel a little bittersweet. This final session marks the end of our time working together regularly, but it’s also the beginning of something new and amazing for each of them. I’ve watched these seniors grow not just in front of the camera, but in who they are. They’ve become leaders, encouragers, and role models for the underclassmen who look up to them.

To the Class of 2025 Senior Team: thank you. Thank you for trusting me with your memories, for showing up with joy and excitement, and for making this year one to remember. Watching your friendships grow and being a small part of your senior year journey has been such a gift. I’ve loved cheering you on, laughing with you, and celebrating all the little and big moments along the way.

Even though our sessions are finished, this isn’t goodbye. I’ll be cheering from the sidelines as your next chapters unfold. Whether that’s college, career, or adventure. I can’t wait to watch your stories continue and see where life takes each of you. You’ve made this year unforgettable. And don’t forget to call me when it’s time for your college senior pictures!❤️

Wishing you all the success and happiness your hearts can hold.
