kayla’s senior photos | nc mountains portrait photographer

Recently, we had the privilege of capturing Kayla’s Senior photos. Next fall, she will head off to UNC-Wilmington for her first semester at college. She and her family drove up from east of Charlotte NC for a fun-filled day of senior pics and family portraits with Pixels On Paper in and around Wilkesboro and North Wilkesboro in the NC mountains. We set out on what was close to a full day of traveling between locations that allowed us the freedom to get as creative as possible, all while making sure that we had time for fun and laughs. Kayla’s mom, Kim, and Ryan have long had a friendship that borders on the insane, with constant jokes and teasing, the day of the session was no exception. Even down to pranks via text messages the night before that had him totally confused. (and Kim would say “but that’s easy to do…”)

We chose locations that would capture Kayla’s personality and let her amazing spirit show. From urban to rustic to natural portrait backdrops Kayla rocked our portrait session from start to finish. At one location Kayla’s Dad, Sonny put on his Army uniform to be in some of the photos with her. You could see the pride in both their eyes as they stood next to one another.  We were even privileged to be asked to recreate a photo from one of his early returns from deployment when Kayla was just a child. The time we spent and the images we captured make it obvious to us that Kayla gets her compassion for others from her parents.

We have known the family for several years and share a strong passion for hockey, and love of all things Charlotte Checkers. We encourage our Seniors to bring props of their choosing so Kayla brought along one of her favorite Checkers jersey and a hockey stick that we put to good use in what would later resemble an igloo setting.

We are so grateful for the trust that the family put in us to capture Kayla’s personality. She is so kind and has a heart that cares so much for others, with a sarcastic wit that should make her mother proud. Her future is bright and we wish her all the success life has to offer.

Congratulations to the class of 2012 and to Kayla we wish you the absolute best at everything you do!
