Grand Rapids, Part 2

On the last day of Amy Wenzel’s workshop we photographed 6 gorgeous seniors. They had their make up and hair made by a salon in Grand Rapids (I wish I remembered their name to give them credit for their fabulous job). Amy had helped them pick through their wardrobe a special outfit for the shoot, they looked absolutely amazing and were such troopers on that cool day to give us all a chance to photograph them.
We didn’t have much time to chit-chat with them, but I tried to get their names, and I’m sorry if I have the spelling wrong.
Katelynn, in super shape, running track. Even though she was under the weather that day, she was stunning.

Marlena, a total knock out in her snazzy purple dress and heels,

Myah, was the youngest of all. We had her in this windy alley, and despite the cold, she gave us all this beautiful smile,

Hillary. When I first saw her I though Amy had managed to woo Scarlett Johansson into coming to pose for us! The resemblance is uncanny. She was bubbly and so much fun to photograph.

Brittany, by the time I had a chance to photograph her, she was about to leave. I’m glad I could squeeze in these 4 frames.

Courtney, we all loved her relaxed look.

And these are the coolest boots, modeled by Kelly (who was such a big help in keeping the logistics of the workshop running smoothly), and Lanna (who has designed and hand made the most beautiful collection of children clothes, go check it out. The music on her website is from none other then our french first lady, Carla Bruni). Kelly has me set up with several novels, all now by my bed side begging to be read. I’m already well into the first one and it’s a delight for my mind.
