Senior/Rush Application Portrait

Taylor, captain of the varsity basketball team and also captain of the varsity stunt team, is one of the busiest seniors that I've come across.  So it's pretty much a miracle that we found time for her to do senior pictures.  But thank goodness we did because it was a blast.

Upon arrival she emerged from the car fresh as a daisy in an adorable yellow party dress and... a pair of Ugg slippers.  Which was smart.  It was kind of chilly and we did need to walk a bit from the parking lot over to where I wanted to take pictures.  Note: feel free to bring comfy shoes and change into the cute ones at the last minute!  This isn't prom- you don't need to torture yourself in heels the entire time!

So we got to the spot.  "Hop into that drainage ditch over there!" I direct, with enthusiasm.  The drainage ditch?  "Yes!  That drainage ditch!"  Up for anything, Taylor found the spot, her mom Andrea got the reflector just right and we started shooting up a storm.

Some rather gallant passers-by asked us if we needed some help.  Like as if we were looking for something, maybe?  But doing so by having Taylor sit really still and not look at the ground? Funny!

Not so funny was the extremely near miss with a bird perched just above Taylor's head.  We decided to just completely ignore the fact that poop just fell from the sky, mere inches away and just continue on our way.

Taylor is in the enviable position of already knowing all of her roommates at the University of Alabama.  They are actually from all over the country so she'll have people to stay with in plenty of cities after freshman year.

She plans to rush so sophomore year she'll probably be living with some of her sorority sisters. Naturally, we did some headshots for rush recruitment.

Taylor, I wish you an amazing time traveling around Italy this summer and at school in the fall.  Roll Tide!
