In the very near future, Collette’s hard work, determination and perseverance will pay off.  Collette will end one chapter of her life as a college senior in order to begin the next.  Collette will graduate from Sam Houston State University!  She will enter the work force as an elementary school teacher.  I am amazed that she is brave enough and motivated enough to educate our youth!  In my book, anyone who wants to spend an entire work day with children who are not related by blood is a straight up hero!

Collette braved an 8 a.m. shoot after a five-hour drive and arriving home way after dark the night before.  We only took one wrong turn on the way to the 100-year old barn that we secured special permission to access.  The light was amazing and we couldn’t have have wished for a more perfect morning!  Collette spotted a wretched travel trailer and and old windmill near the barn.  We immediately decided to incorporate these additional props into her Texas senior portrait session.

Before venturing off to college, Collette had been the long-time gate opener for her grandfather—and I must add, the most beautiful gate opener I’ve ever seen!  Her grandfather will be hard pressed to replace her!  Here are a few of my favorite images from the session!  If you’re Collette’s friend or family member, please be sure to show her some love by leaving a comment here.
