What do you think of senior photography? Is it scary or are you a secret posing queen?  To switch up us writing these senior photo posts, we decided to ask Miss Karissa to share some of her thoughts about her senior session. We truly love getting to know and have fun with all of our clients and Karissa was certainly no exception. Thanks Karissa for opening up your tender personality to us, we had a blast!

Karissa-”I was not the girl that has been dreaming about taking my senior pictures all throughout high school. I was actually dreading it! I’m a very shy introverted person, so the thought of someone yelling, “work it!” terrified me. I had no idea what I was going to do or how they would turn out. I mean I play the piano, can’t take a picture with that, I don’t play sports so that cancelled out sports jerseys. I was at a loss. When we decided to have Kim do my pictures I became 100% more excited. I loved that her pictures were unique and fashion focused. I’m a J-Crew junkie and her style captured that perfectly for me! I also loved the vintage feel she was able to give my pictures. I love everything vintage so I was excited to pretend for a day I was in a different era.

Being able to meet with Kim a week before we took my pictures was great. I was able to tell her more about who I was and able to get to know her and become more comfortable. We had a lot of fun the day of my pictures. It was great to feel like a princess for a day. I’m usually really shy and put together. I like to be in control of things, and sometimes I feel like I can’t be silly because of the roles I’m in, but this day I was able to be free and silly, and it was beautiful. I loved having my pictures taken and I can’t wait for another opportunity to work with Kim.”

Each year we are able to photograph only a limited number of senior sessions. This year we’re offering professional makeup with every senior session… just another way to make you feel like a true model! Schedule your senior session now at Kim Thiel Photography – Seniors.

From her layered looks, to pop’s of color and cute painted toes, Theresa was a true fashionista. I love that she whipped up a messy braid for some added variety.  Its a new time in senior photography – a time to be you and a time to be free.

Class of 2013 senior portrait season is upon us, we’d love to see all that you’ve got!

P.S.  If you get a chance checkout A.Boutique and Hey Daisy downtown Appleton for some fun fashion options.  It’s important to buy local and support our community!

Images sometimes speak volumes for the love and affection of couples and these two county kids nailed is! Their love for one another is nothing short of admirable.

Nola and Dustin, I sincerely had a wonderful time getting to know each of you at your LoveSession. Thank you for sharing such an honest and natural love for me to capture. I’m really looking forward to your intimate wedding in the woods later this summer.

This session was captured out at Bubolz Nature Preserve… just one mile north of Appleton but miles away from the chaos and clutter of daily life. I’m often out there clearing my mind and gathering inspiration and encourage you do the same to recharge.

~Kim
