It impresses me to know someone so young, strong, who is already working AND has decided what they want to do when they "grow up". Wow.

This is Maria, a young lady who is graduating from Coon Rapids High School.

Our senior session was in the late Spring, almost Summer, at the Springbrook Nature Center, in Fridley. I love this location and we had the perfect weather, with a cool breeze and a bright sunset. Maria had her hair and makeup done by Teneille Corrigan, who made her look classy while still young and fun. The photos are absolutely beautiful, and I have received tons of compliments on Maria's behalf.

Here's what she said about her experience with me:

"Laine took my senior graduation photos and I couldn't be happier! I have never looked better in my life, she really is the best!!"

Here are some of my favorite shots (and you can watch a YouTube video of the full session below):

Senior photos have changed a lot in the last 10 years. They no longer need to be a cookie cutter blue background shot in a studio somewhere.

I specialize in photos that are unique and special to each senior, so the experience is one to be remembered, and their photos stand out from that dozen grad cards you receive in the mail - I promise!
