Twin Cities Senior Portrait Photography | Shelby’s session in downtown Stillwater

July 23, 2010

I LOVE senior season! It’s one of my favorite times of the year because the seniors start coming in and I get to do all kinds of creative stuff. I get to tap into my inner fashion side, try out new lighting, new backgrounds and new poses. A couple weeks before her senior session, Shelby emailed me a couple inspiration images of what she wanted to try. I love it when people do this because then I know I’m creating images that are unique to them and that they will love. So early last Saturday morning, Shelby, Jody of Makeup Savvy and I met at the studio, hashed out a plan and started to play (with seniors I always have so much fun so I hardly can consider it work!). Jody had even brought some of her fantastic jewelry that she is now selling (check it out at Maison Galleria in downtown Stillwater or contact Jody directly) to help accent Shelby’s wardrobe. If anyone who knows me and has done a session with me before, you know that when I get an awesome shot I get all excited and start to jump all over (yeah a little weird I know..I just LOVE my job!). So needless to say, I was jumping around quite a bit during Shelby’s session Here are JUST A FEW of the killer shots I captured of Shelby last Saturday but if you want to see more check out my Seniors – Class of 2011 gallery on my Facebook page.

OH and I forgot to mention that Shelby is one of my fantastic senior models from Stillwater Area High School. If you go to school at Stillwater or see Shelby around, ask her about a special deal she can get you on senior portraits. 40% off all senior session fees this month too…just in case you were wondering on what other deals we’ve got going on

Twin Cities Senior Portrait Photography | Ashley – Class of 2011

July 23, 2010

Ashley is one of my senior models, representing the studio at Woodbury High. We had a fantastic senior model session earlier this spring and now she’s back to do her full senior session. Her session was so much fun! She brought killer outfits, Jody Olson of Makeup Savvy did a phenomenal job on Ashley’s makeup, and we just had a blast hanging out and creating some great photos that really capture who Ashley is. Since she’s got lighter colored hair, we did some really fun high key images on the white background which really made her eyes pop! She’s really into music and singing so she brought along some sheet music that we made a sweet background out of. I think my favorite images are the ones we did outdoors. The session was later in the afternoon and so by the time we got to the outdoor part, the lighting was PERFECT! I even had her do a little cat walk strut down one of the alleys which resulted in some amazing movement shots with her hair flowing behind her. My absolute favorites!!!!

If you are a senior at Woodbury High and want awesome images like Ashley’s, contact her for a special deal! And don’t forget that all senior sessions are 40% off this month!!!!

Twin Cities Senior Portrait Photography | Alex’s Senior Model Session

April 29, 2010

I am getting super excited for senior season to get into full swing. These past couple of weeks that I have photographed my senior models, has really gotten me in the groove again. I’m constantly online searching for new backgrounds and props the seniors would love, honing my photographic skill and experimenting with new lighting in studio, and designing some killer grad cards for this year’s graduating seniors. The creativity is really flowing! So I was super excited when Alex came in for her senior modeling session. I had photographed Alex before (last year we did a modeling session to create new head shots to submit to local agencies) and so I knew she was very relaxed behind the camera and I would be able to play around. My makeup artist, Jody from Makeup Savvy here in Stillwater, created three different looks and Alex just KILLED the session. I couldn’t believe the fantastic shots we got! Here are just a few of my favorites…with more on my Facebook page. So go check them out!

Twin Cities Senior Portrait Photography | Shelby’s Senior Model Session

April 21, 2010

Last year I got to photograph the fabulous Shelby while doing some promo shots for Karma Clothing Co., a local consignment shop specializing in name brand clothing. I had such a blast with her that I knew I’d HAVE to have her as a Senior Model this year, when she’s going to be a senior. So you can imagine my excitement when she applied to be a Senior Model and came in for her model session. Jody, my makeup artists extraordinaire, and I worked with the fantastic outfits that Shelby brought, tried out some different backgrounds, and created some fantastic looks for her model cards. These are just a few of my favorites…she really rocked the session and it was hard for me to pick just a couple photos to share…but here they are! (More on my facebook page if you want to see them).

If you want to be a rockstar Senior Model for Kristina Lynn Photography & Design, I’m accepting applications through April 30th. So just CLICK HERE to fill out an application.

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Ashley’s Senior Model Session

April 14, 2010

Well it’s about that time of year again – SENIOR SEASON! I can’t tell you how excited I am to get back in the studio, meet these fantastic seniors and create some amazing portraits that they can’t wait to show their friends. This year, in order to help spread the word about my studio, I’m finding soon-to-be high school seniors to be Senior Models and help get my name into the schools. So without further ado…here is Ashley! She’s going to be a senior at Woodbury High School next year and we met through her mom Lori who is a wedding planner (her company is called Veiled Events – you should really check her out if you’re in need of an awesome wedding planner!) Anyways, back to Ashley, she came into the studio last week for her model session. One of the perks to being a Senior Model is not only do you get a free session out of the deal but you get your makeup professionally done by the great Jody Olson of Makeup Savvy here in Stillwater. We played around with a couple different looks, tried out some new lighting and backgrounds and had a blast! This was a great kick off to my super fun senior season. Can’t wait for it to get into full swing!

P.S. if you’re a soon-to-be senior at Woodbury and want awesome photos like Ashley, look her up for a special deal that only she can get you! Want to be a Senior Model? Just contact the studio at 651-491-5571 ASAP as we have a couple spots left!
