graduation photo shoot

two weekends ago i spent the saturday taking graduation photos of my niece.  she graduates this coming Sunday. 
she is stunningly beautiful and so incredibly easy to photograph.
her boyfriend was a hoot and such a great sport as it took us 
THREE HOURS with multiple changes of location!!
soph had purchased these 3 giant balloons, so we had fun with some creative photos in a meadow.
they are so funny......with their glasses, a vintage afghan & zach's big shoes.  how cute!  at one point they were chucking grapes up into the air & trying to catch them.  so many giggles.
i have these two vintage chalkboards, so i told them to write anything they wanted about "graduation" on them (but they couldn't show each other until after the photo was taken).  zach had graduated 2 years ago already.......so that explains what he wrote on his chalkboard (lol).
soph created a little digital "adventure" album for zach and it was a great prop for these fun photos!!  look how their fingers are linked -- love it.
happy graduation, soph!! 
love you.
 
 
keep creating memories,

found these hiding amongst the hedge today. 
i'm now enjoying them in the kitchen.

a darker hair colour, fresh cut & new (retro) glasses.
