Twin Cities Senior Portrait Photography | Ashley – Class of 2011

Kristina Lynn — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 07:09:26 +0000

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!!!!

Every model needs to eat! Thank goodness Dairy Queen is right across from the studio. Mom to the rescue!

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Ashley’s Senior Model Session

Kristina Lynn — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 02:27:10 +0000

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!

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Sneak Peek from Chelsea’s Senior Session

Kristina Lynn — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 23:43:51 +0000

Earlier this week I put some of the images from Chelsea’s senior session on my Facebook page, now time for the blog entry. Can’t believe it’s almost been two weeks since Chelsea came in for her session (where is the time going?!) My favorite thing about the session, other than Chelsea’s great personality, was the outfits she brought. Talk about your bright, fun colors! I think my favorite was the teal dress that really popped off the rusty fence we used for a background. I also adore the images of her in the prairie field – perfect candidates for the vintage color treatment! Thanks for coming in Chelsea! Can’t wait to show you the rest of the images.

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Sneak Peek from Danielle’s Senior Session

Kristina Lynn — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 06:10:23 +0000

Last week I got the chance to photograph royalty! Danielle just recently took the title of Miss Woodbury Princess at the 2009 Woodbury Days. Luckily we were able to get her senior portraits taken before her schedule gets super busy with school and all her royalty duties. We started the session indoors while we let the sun get a little lower in the sky for better lighting. The first outfit was this amazing print dress that was so fun and colorful. The print was pretty bold so we did it on the gray paper background to really make the colors pop and gave it a nice clean feel overall. Then I had JUST gotten this new amazing background that we HAD to play with so luckily the second outfit was a solid colored neutral shirt and jeans. It worked out great! Since Danielle wanted mostly outdoor urban-esque images we didn’t waste any more time in the studio and headed out to downtown Stillwater. We wandered all over from down to the river to the alley ways around the studio, finding new fun places to shoot. I think one of my favorite spots was the red wall that had just enough ivy on it to give it a nice pop of contrasting color. LOVE IT! Thanks Danielle for coming in for your senior session! Can’t wait to show you the rest of them!

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Sneak Peek from Saba’s Senior Session

Kristina Lynn — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 01:40:01 +0000

About a week and a half ago (my, how time is flying!), Saba came into the studio for her senior session. She knew she wanted more of the natural outdoor photos with flowers, trees and such. Luckily, just that morning I had driven past the Historic Courthouse in Stillwater and saw two lovely ladies weeding some beautiful yellow flowers. The spot turned out to be perfect…the sun was still low enough to be sort of hiding behind the courthouse providing some shade on the flowers and really made the yellow colors pop. And it also helped that Saba brought the perfect white shirt and jeans as one of her outfits. Very rarely can you go wrong with a white shirt! As I was editing her session, I found I was having a hard time narrowing down the images. Pretty sure we didn’t take one bad photo of her – so photogenic! Which also makes picking out images for the blog, Facebook and website a challenge as well – so many images…so little space! So here are just a FEW of my favorites from the session. And a HUGE thank you to Saba for being a great model and having great patience in waiting for her sneak peek…hope the images were worth the wait!

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Sneak Peek from Tina’s Session

Kristina Lynn — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 21:33:17 +0000

One of the things I love about senior photography is getting to know the senior and customizing the session to what they are looking for. Not everyone fits into the “urban grunge” scheme that is very popular right now. Take Tina for instance…instead of doing the downtown alley ways of Stillwater, she opted to do more nature-esque images instead. So before her session, I went out in search of somewhere fun for us to shoot. I knew of this bridge, not far outside Stillwater’s city limits, that would work great! There were wooden fences with some flowers, tall grasses, and the bridge itself provided some nice lines for a background. And the outfits that Tina brought were just the right colors! These are just a few of the favorite images from the session….

Twin Cities Senior Photography | Marisa’s Senior Session

Kristina Lynn — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 05:26:04 +0000

One of my favorite things about senior photography is finding new, fun places to photograph each senior. Marisa’s session was definitely no exception! She brought lots of awesome outfits that worked out great for the outdoor photos she was looking for. Wandering all over Main Street, we captured some AMAZING photos. Here are just a few of my favorites…check out the website and Facebook Page for more!
