Not only is she model-gorgeous, but Katie has a graceful ease about her that makes hanging out with her very enjoyable. She seems to be an old soul, and maybe that’s why I think she’s so darn cool. I can’t wait to see what she cooks up over the next few years…I know whatever it is will be good!

Love how she crosses her ankles in a shy sort of way.

What’s a better way to memorialize the construction of Downtown McKinney than to be photographed in the midst of it?!

Something about this next image just gets me. So darling!

I am starting a project involving senior girls called “Label Alley”. High school is such a defining stage in life when we are coexisting with labels that we have been given since elementary school. During this time of identity examination, we either cling to those labels or toss them aside. I loved getting to know Katie through this process, and finding out what she thought of herself and what others thought of her. Not everything she thought of herself was in line with her peers’ image of her, and to me, that makes for a very interesting discussion. Discovering which labels are clung to and which are transcended and why will be a fascinating study that I’ve been craving for a while. (Just so you know, I used to be a Psych Prof, so this isn’t totally coming out of left field!!!) Good times.

Rock on, Katie!

What a beautiful girl, inside and out. I am so excited to see what she does with her life!

Check him out!

Doing MacGyver, even though he doesn’t know who MacGyver is. I am so old.

Lovebirds!

Thanks so much, Taylor! I can’t wait to hear how your senior year finishes out and where you decide to go to college!

A cheerleader, a musician, a fashionista, and a witty witty little thing, Lauren personifies juxtaposition. I beg you to try to put her in a box…Please try just so I can laugh at you! You can’t. She obeys all the rules while breaking them at the same time. I am so glad I got to photograph her at this pivotal point in her life…what an honor.

For her slammin’ slideshow, CLICK HERE.

Just one of my many faves from this session.

I have to thank Miss Sam at Rick’s Chophouse for her hospitality. She was so kind to let Lauren play their piano while I snapped some pics.

We have the same earrings…girlfriend’s got good taste!

Such an All American Girl!

Thanks, Lauren, for a fun Saturday afternoon adventure, and I wish you all the best in your very bright future…keep me updated!

~Email me at kate@juxtaposephotography.com.

~Get your deposit (the full amount of $500) and portrait contract back to me and we will set up your appointment (date & time, location TBD).

~We’ll strike up a friendship during which I will find out eleventy million things about you so that I can draw some inspiration for your concepts and locations.

~Unlike a lot of photographers, I DO NOT use catch-all locations. EVERY SINGLE PORTRAIT SESSION IS COMPLETELY CUSTOMIZED. I don’t reproduce poses or ideas unless you have a clone that also books me, and due to scientific advances or the lack thereof, I highly doubt that will happen. =)

~We will talk about clothing and accessories and anything that you need to be totally yourself in front of the camera. I LOVE this part. Please feel free to totally take advantage of my fashion background.

~On the day of the session, we will feel like old friends departing on an adventure. We will hit up various spots that reflect who you are as a person and just hang.

~Don’t forget, you can also do your session WITH YOUR FRIENDS if you want to. Extravert…introvert…whatever you may be, I already lurve ya.

~After the session, you get a blog sneak peek, a full online gallery, a cd of a boatload of retouched images, shared copyrights, printing recommendations, and some killer un-wallets. None of that cheesy gold embossing stuff here.

~Dates are already filling up, so if you want to get in before your senior year is ovah, holla back and GET ON THE BUS!

This All-American girl could not be any busier. Not only is she academically inclined, but she is a track star, volleyball playah, and a cheerleader. How does she have time to keep herself together? Who knows, but she does. She does it all with a smile. Some say she’s high voltage like that.

Though she may be gorgeous on the outside, she is just as stunning on the inside. Such a sweetie, that Mattie is. She is very involved in her church youth group (go Brenham Presbyterian Church!), is a cheerleader, and also is quite the scholar. Word on the street is that she is heavily considering Texas A&M, but we shall see…wherever she ends up, she will be turning heads and impressing profs, no doubt.

Leave Miss Mattie a Holla Back, y’all!

Meet Mattie, Taylor, & Lindsey. Get to know them and love them over these next few posts, and be assured that this Get On The Bus campaign is gonna take your butt to town!

Though Lanae just left last weekend to head out to Utah for college, we managed to capture her personality in a nutshell before the big moving day! She’s intelligent, elegant, and has a dash of whimsy…super fun and darling to boot…we wish you the very best, Lanae! Good luck at BYU!
