HAILEY'S SENIOR PICTURES

In 2018, I'm committing to share more of my photography here in this little space. So here's the first of a few posts to come!  ++ It's hard to believe I'm writing this post. The baby of our fam is graduating this year!!! Grab the tissues! Seems like yesterday we were at my high school graduation saying "before we know it this will be Hailey!"......and here we (almost) are! (insert the sobbing emoji)
Last August, I took my youngest niece's senior pictures. Luckily, the weather decided to finally cooperate because the entire morning and into early afternoon it was storming like crazy! I was so nervous we'd have to reschedule. But, you never would've known that was happening an hour before we started by the gorgeous, dreamy sunlight in these pictures--answered prayer for sure! 
Hailey is an amazing equestrian and her love for horses runs deep. She started riding English at age 6 but recently switched to Western. Her favorite spot to be is in the barn or working with animals. So it was only fitting that we spent our time at her boyfriend, Will's farm. There's something special about getting away to open fields. Everything happens at a slower pace...you can truly soak in all of the moments. It's so good for the soul! Hailey is so laid back and I love that these photos represent her in her element. I loved getting to spend this time with her!! Although, note to self- don't wear flip flops after a summer storm when you'll be walking through fields #somanybugs! 
Hailey, I'm so proud of you and I cannot wait to see what you'll do next! I know whatever school you choose, it will be the perfect fit for you! Xo
