Emma, High School Senior

Capturing Emma: A Custom Portrait Session

Emma is a dynamic high school senior who balances her passions for track, cross country, and equestrian sports. As a professional jumper, she brings dedication and elegance to everything she does. At Becky Nichols Portrait, we had the pleasure of working with Emma for a custom portrait session that beautifully reflects her multifaceted personality.

Pre-Planning the Session

The journey of capturing Emma began with a detailed pre-planning consultation. Understanding Emma's interests and aspirations was essential. We discussed her achievements in sports, her love for horses, and how she wanted to be represented in her portraits. This collaboration allowed us to tailor the session to suit her unique style.

Emma expressed a desire to incorporate her equestrian background, so we decided on multiple locations that would complement her love for horses while also celebrating her athleticism.

High Touch Approach

At Becky Nichols Portrait, we pride ourselves on our high-touch approach to client experience. For Emma, we knew that creating a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere was key. We arranged for a personalized hair and makeup session prior to the photography, ensuring that Emma felt her best and radiated confidence.

Jessy Higgins, the hair and makeup artist, worked with Emma to achieve a natural yet polished look that highlighted her features without overshadowing her vibrant personality. This bespoke service is part of our commitment to making every client feel pampered and ready for their moment in front of the camera.

The Session: Bringing Emma's Vision to Life

On the day of the session, the weather was perfect, and Emma arrived brimming with excitement. The teamwork continued as we guided her through poses that showcased her athletic grace and connection with her horse.

Through our collaborative approach, Emma's authentic personality shone throughout the session. We took our time, allowing for organic moments to unfold, which resulted in genuine expressions and dynamic images.

Final Thoughts

Emma's custom session was not just a photoshoot; it was a celebration of her achievements and passions. The portraits we created together reflect her identity as a high school senior, athlete, and accomplished equestrian. At Becky Nichols Portrait, we strive to create lasting memories that tell each client's unique story. Emma's session is a testament to the power of collaboration in creating authentic and striking portraits.
