What to Wear Wednesdays!

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010

Hey everyone!

One of the most popular questions I get is what to wear……hence I’ve created a whole link just for you guys up there!  But that’s not enough, I’d like to take it a bit further and show you what some good examples are!

Fall is coming up and I know everyone wants to have their family portrait made this time of year, hurry and book quickly since those beautiful fall leaves come and go so quickly so does my availability between senior sessions and family sessions and everything in between!

Now booking for mid Sept and Oct.  Please contact me at erikadotson@gmail.com to book your session!  I’m trying to schedule sessions on Mon, Tues, Wed, Thur.  let me know if you need a weekend date and we’ll try to work something out!

Below is an example for a family of five, but could be adapted for a couple session as well.  You can see the color palette below.  Using accessories is a great way to add individuality to each family member.  Maybe a grey scarf for mom?  What about some cute ruffly socks for little sister?  Or could you see dad in a fedora?!?!?  :)

Evelyn // Fayetteville High School Senior Portraits

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

Evelyn is a very creative and inspired gal.  I met Evelyn about a year ago while working at Forever 21.  She was the girl who introduces herself really quickly to you and just welcomes you as part of the family.  She was my go to girl if I didn’t know where something went or how to do something, she seriously knew everything.  I’ve learned a lot about Evelyn and the amazing young lady that she is.  She can be pretty feisty at times and then turn around the next moment and be the most gorgeous soul that ever walked the Earth.  She really is a doll and has some big dreams that I hope to see happen in her life.  She wants to open a restaurant/coffee shop/art gallery one day.  I hope that day happens soon, it sounds like a really cool place to hang out!  Evelyn and I have become pen pals at work and we like to exchange little love notes.  Most of her notes include how pregnant I am and that she loves it, but most of mine include comments about how beautiful she is.  She has just a lovely face and a wonderful smile.  She’s always happy and lightens up the store when she arrives, she’s one of those girls that you just love to be around.

Congratulations Evelyn on making it to this point in your life.  This is a big new step in the direction of better things to come.  I hope that you document your feelings and everything about graduation, you’ll love to look back at this time later in your life and enjoy recounting these times!  Best wishes and Good Luck!
