Outdoor Senior Session with Dancer & Q + A with Logan

Meet Logan! Senior at Gahanna Lincoln HS. Isn't she gorgeous? What a doll she is and I loved working with her and her mom again. (I photographed her brother a few years back and loved working with him as well). Logan is a dancer and I knew as soon as we had our style consult, we were going to have an amazing day. (Of course it came with the usual weather shenanigans which is starting to become a standard.) I'm so glad my seniors are flexible and can roll with it. Logan wanted natural settings and loved the ideas of grasses, boardwalks and wanted to include some of her dance. (um yes please! ). Glacier Ridge Metro Park and Corazon have become favorite spots for my seniors and who can blame them. Everything about it is beautiful. I loved her style choices and I think they went so perfectly with the locations I chose for her!

Her dance images are stunning and I LOVE them on the boardwalk :) ALL of her images are beautiful but I think the movement photos at the end in her dress are just so fun and carefree! The dress was perfect for this and she nailed it.

Girl , you were a TON of fun!! Thank you to you and your mom for being so amazing and choosing me to capture this very special time for you!! Loved every second! (even in the crazy wind - lol)

Here's what they had to say about their session!

• Tell me about your Senior Session Day! What was the best part?
  I had a blast during my senior session! Claudine is an amazing photographer and I love the way my photos turned out. She made the day so much fun and created an awesome experience for me! I loved getting my makeup done and going to different beautiful locations. While we had some bumps in the road along the way with weather issues, like the sun and the wind, the pictures still came out so great! The best part for me was spending time with my mom and sharing this experience with her! I couldn't be happier with my senior session day!
• What was your biggest fear for your session? Do you feel differently now that the session is done?
  My biggest fear for my session was that I was going to feel uncomfortable and not know what to do or how to pose. I haven't had much experience with getting solo pictures taken, let alone with professional photography, so I was extremely nervous for the outcome. Now that the session is done, I see that I had no reason to be nervous or fearful! Claudine created the best experience and environment for me. She made me feel very confident when taking my photos and helped me along the way with how to pose and position myself to get the best photos. Also, she was able to help me let loose and have so much fun!
• What was most important for you to get out of your shoot?
  It was most important for me to get timeless photos that not only I could enjoy now and in the future, but also my family and friends. These photos will be seen in many places for my senior year and graduation, so I really wanted to love and adore my photos, which I absolutely do!
• Tell me about your style! What inspired your outfit selections?
  In my style, I like to feel comfortable with what I'm wearing while also feeling cute, stylish, and presentable. I like to experiment with different types of clothing, colors, patterns, and textures. One of my favorite things to wear is jeans, so I knew I wanted to incorporate that into some of my outfits. I looked online, on Pinterest, and at outfits that other girls wore during their senior session to get inspiration. I also took note of Claudine's tips and suggestions to find the best outfits.
• What was your all time favorite photo?
  My all time favorite photo was the one in the pink bodysuit and jeans outfit where I was sitting and leaning against the edge of the boardwalk. I never knew that I could take a unique photo like that and I didn't know how it would turn out. I was amazed when I finally saw and instantly fell in love with it.
• Do you have any tips or advice for other seniors for their Senior Portrait Session?
   
• Would your parent like to add any comments about your session day?
  My older child was male and I enjoyed the different experiences for each child. I loved to see the vision that Claudine and Logan had come together and I just loved the day.
• What drew you to Claudine Kosier Photography?
  My older brother did his senior picture session with Claudine Kosier Photography and I just absolutely loved his photos! I started looking more into Claudine Kosier Photography on her website and Instagram account, and every photo I saw I adored. I immediately knew that I wanted to have my senior pictures taken by her as well, and I am certainly glad that I did!
