First, a few details: the invitation…

I love this moment!  So serious, like she was really contemplating the importance of the day (or maybe she was just rehearsing her dances in her head!)

Stunning, once again!

She had an amazing mantilla…

One last look on her way out the door (I love the light)…

I hope you had an amazing day, Andrea!  Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it.  I wish you all the best in the future!

And if these weren’t enough for you, you can see more photos in her slideshow!  (There’s a slightly larger version here.)

Yesterday morning we headed up to The Woodlands for a very out-of-the-ordinary senior portrait session.  Matt, in addition to being a high school senior at Woodlands College Park, is a volunteer firefighter and is about to get his private pilot’s license–quite an impressive young man!  So where better to take his senior portraits?  At the fire station and the airport, of course!

We had a great time with Matt and his mom at the Needham Fire Station, where the very nice firemen let us use their shiny-clean fire trucks for photos.  Then we headed to the Fellowship of the Woodlands and the most beautifully landscaped church grounds I’ve ever seen.  Finally, we ended our session at the Conroe Airport where we toured the airplane hangar and took photos in Matt’s plane.  It was such a fun morning!

Matt will be taking his pilot’s certification test next week, so we want to wish him luck.  Then he’ll be graduating on May 30 and shortly thereafter he’ll be heading off to the University of Oklahoma–congratulations, Matt!

And as I promised his mom, here a couple sneak previews from the most unique senior portrait session ever–enjoy!
