Beautiful Girl You Can Do Amazing Things

I'd like to introduce you to Miss Hailey, a class of 2022 senior from Belmont High School and member of this years Candid Crew Rep Team. I've gotten the pleasure of getting to know Hailey over the past 8 months and it's been an absolute joy. Hailey entered my studio a little reserved and maybe a little nervous. Her big heart, infectious personality, and easy going attitude soon shown through. Hailey took part in 4 stylized sessions that included freezing in the snow, spending an afternoon on the farm, getting funky in the studio, and becoming a princess. She has also dedicated her time and efforts to helping contribute the the Candid Community gives back project. She collected donations for local non-profits and donated her own time helping clean a local church and soon will be helping run a charity fundraiser. To describe Hailey she is a selfless young woman with an enormous heart and inviting personality. I'm so excited to see what this young woman goes on to accomplish and the lives she will impact. 

For Hailey's personal session she chose to head to the beautiful Dubuque Arboretum and check out some of the favorite spots in Downtown Dubuque. The flowers and Koi pond at the arboretum never disappoint. We made sure to get a little glamour in the mix and added in her Junior prom dress. Absolutely gorgeous and so old Hollywood. Before heading to our final location for sunset portraits we made sure to show off some of Miss Hailey's moves! An accomplished athlete in a gorgeous flowy red dress, how was this not going to be awesome?

Our last destination for the evening was so perfect. A little old world charm with this amazing wrought iron bridge and the sun just peeking through the trees. Those books, yes, she's quite the reader and we made sure to include that into her session. Before the night was through we both got a little adventurous and headed for the water. It was cooler and slightly deeper than expected but the portraits are flawless! 

As I stated, Miss Hailey is an accomplished athlete. She chose to add on an Xtreme Sports Portrait experience in studio to capture Track, Volleyball and Gymnastics and the results are epic. Hailey was the first to ever bring her own balance beam, uneven bar, and crash pad! It was too fun and no one was injured in the making of these portraits. ;)

 
Thank you to Hailey and her family for choosing me to capture her portrait experience. It has been a pleasure getting to know you all and I wish you the best of luck as Hailey finishes her high school journey. Enjoy!
