Amanda {c/o 2014 Senior}

Amanda is one of Randa's very best friends, and when it was determined that I would be doing her Senior session along with Randa, JJ {Randa's mother and my best friend} said to me "Oh, you'll like Amanda. She's very pretty." and boy was she right!!

We laughed and laughed because Amanda only knows one smile- and that is 100%, whereas Randa prefers the more serious look. I love how different they are, yet at the same time so similar. It reminds me of my own friendship with JJ.

Aside from her smile, Amanda also has the most piercing eyes and combined- they make one beautiful girl who is just such a joy to be around.

I neglected to include their "duo" photos in Randa's post, so I'll throw those in with this one. Amanda also brought along her boyfriend, so you'll see some of him as well as her so sweet mother!

Enjoy!!!

Randa {c/o 2014 Senior}

I have known Randa for almost seven years now. Which means that when I *first* met her, she was the same age that my own daughter is right now. Wow. This is the first time I've made that connection.
Her mother, JJ, is my best friend and I JUMP at the opportunity to photograph this beautiful girl every chance I get. I've been itching to do her senior portraits since her prom session last year, so when her mother asked if this winter break would work, I was ecstatic!!!

She isn't thrilled with the fact that she still has her braces, so we will be doing more once they're gone, but I am so happy with the way these turned out.

If you have a little girl of your own--- be aware--- this is what 17 year old girls look like now.  ;)
