Summer Wildflower Field Senior Photos | Abigail
July 13, 2022
Turns out summer wildflowers and a golden sunset make for some killer senior photos! Abigail had such a great idea for her session. It was simple, timeless, and beautiful and we're still swooning over these photos.
Take one part perfect golden hour sunlight, add in a lovely young woman with a great smile, and sprinkle a bunch of beautiful summer wildflowers all over the whole thing. Now you've got a recipe for high school senior photos that will never let you down.
Abigail brought along a couple of extras for this session that really added the icing on top. The first was an antique wooden dining chair she found at a thrift store. You know, the kind with the curvy arms that you can dangle your legs over while looking absolutely amazing out in the middle of a field. Yeah, you'll see what we mean.
The second was a bouquet of flowers that really brought the whole theme together. Timeless. Elegant.
Everything was perfect. Bunnies were hopping around in the fields, the sunset was gorgeous, the bugs were all up in our space.. Ok, so there were a ton of bugs. That was the only downside. Next time we'll bring lots of bugspray. Lesson learned. Everything else was perfect.
