Renita // Senior Session | Swannanoa Palace

Josh Gooden — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 03:22:43 +0000

Last weekend I was fortunate enough to photograph Renita, a rising senior and photographer, from South Boston, Virginia. After learning about her love for anything Victorian and vintage, I knew Swannanoa Palace in Afton, Virginia would be perfect for her senior session. I found some awesome props, which included some vintage books, a typewriter, a few vintage cameras, and a mirror. The props worked so well in the shoot and with Swannanoa in the background, they matched perfectly. Despite the rain at the end of the shoot, I had so much fun working with Renita (as well as her boyfriend Travis) and I wish her the best as she enters her last year of high school.

I hope you enjoy the teasers! :]

I am thrilled to share this post with you! In the Fall, we started a new concept called “Senior Fusion,” which is a unique blend of still and motion photography that provides a small glimpse into the life of a high school senior and their future ambitions. After the awesome time we had shooting and editing the last one, I was really excited that Whitney came to me for one. With all of her unique talents and awesome style, we were really able to capture her personality in this film. We hope you enjoy it!

I am thrilled to share Kathlyn’s senior portraits with you. We went for an “Alice in Wonderland” theme and our victorian location worked absolutely perfectly. Stay tuned for more “Senior Spotlights” every Friday!
