Kaylee is so super sweet. We had quite the adventure together. Our plans were to go to this little place with lots of little shops and a wedding area with pretty greens. Turns out there was a big train in our way! So we pulled off the road before we lost the sun and found this glorious new spot that complimented her purple dress perfectly. She is so easy going and kind! We also had some fun at the soccer fields. She is an honor student, a soccer player, full of kindness, and fun to be around…such a pleasure capturing her during her senior year. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it. Best of luck in the future and into your college years. And before I show the rest of her beautiful session, here are her insightful words of advice to incoming freshmen:

“If someone was just entering high school, I think I would offer two pieces of advice.1)Know that high school will change people, and the people you have been friends with your whole life may no longer be your friends in high school. Find friends who make you feel good about yourself and genuinely care about you, and move on from “friends” who make you feel anything less than perfect. Also, never forget that your family will always be there for you, even if your friends are not. 2) Your first year of high school is your chance to start new for the next four years…Don’t mess it up! Meaning, do not build a reputation you won’t want two years later, because once you have a reputation for something, it is nearly impossible to change it! Also, take the time your freshman year to get good grades and get involved in activities throughout the school. Your grades for all four years of high school are based on your first year, and trying to make up for bad grades later down the road is not easy. I have witnesses way too many people be lazy their freshman year and get bad grades, and then regret it their senior year because it holds them back from going to the college of their dreams. Work hard, and enjoy your success later down the road!”
