Olivia {Senior}

Olivia. Ohhh Olivia, I quite like her. :D Our shoot started with busy phone calls trying to find one another and search our way through DC, and my frantic need of a bathroom. (TMI? :P) "I'm on 9th street I think?" "Where are you in relation to the Washington Monument?" "Ummm.. I don't know where I am! Do you see the big white tent? I'm there!" Took us about 20 minutes, involved a lot of running on my part, but we found each other and started shooting!

Olivia is such a lighthearted, happy soul. She is gorgeous, loves nature, makes really good food (i'm not even kidding, i've had it. Tis amazing.) and really just wants to be a Godly wife and mother. & I'm not going to lie, it fits her perfectly. Until then, she'll be leading Bible studies for younger girls, and waiting to see where God leads her! :D Mhmm, sounds pretty good, no?

She is so sweet and caring. As we started the process of e-mailing back and forth we got to know one another better, and one day she wrote on my facebook wall and said "I just think we should be friends, I like you." Umm, I guess I can like you too? ;) This is my kind of girl! :D

Gorg, gorg, stunner, stunner!

She has such a heart for her family and it's so beautiful to see. I love hearing about things she does with her siblings! Whether it be her brother taking her out for dinner, or spending a day hiking with her sisters, or spending time with her mom in the kitchen. Her love and gratefulness for her family is so evident.

As you're looking at these, you're probably thinking how gorgeous she is (how could you not?) so while your doing that, keep in mind this girl owns and shoots guns, has a home grown garden, plays volleyball, camps, goes fishing, wears make-up, looks good in a skirt, and loves the Lord. Oh Olivia, I legit want to be like you when I grow up. ;)

She thinks i'm funny. I think i'm funny, too. :P

(Buddy, I literally posted this picture just for you. :D)

She's cute. Like pie.. Let's say, cherry pie? Yes, yes, she's as cute as cherry pie. :D hehe

Ahh this is a favorite. Sometimes my clients have a hard time loosening up in public. (I mean, there's 20 people walking by them, it's a little scary) So I make them publicly humiliate themselves so they feel comfortable. (Real nice, right? ;) "Ok, ok, so you put your hip out like this, and I want a Mona Lisa smile." *looks around* "Not feeling it, are you? Ok, ready? Do a little jig, *starts dancing* now smile, wave to the people, yes, even that guy right there. I'm doing it too, it's ok! Wave woman, wave!" "Ummm hi there Mr! Now i'm smiling, and waving, is this good?" Lots of laughs came from this. :D

Waa cha, you gorgeous cherry pie, you. :D (Is it lame if I laugh at my own jokes? hahaha)

All day we had very even light because it was pretty overcast, but right at the end we got some sunshine and I was SO happy to use some backlight!

Rock your inner Taylor Swift, girlfriend!

Olivia, thanks for being so darn wonderful, walking all over creation with me, and actually waving at the people. :D Hehe, love you girl!

Stay Beautiful,

Anne
