| Ella | Maroa-Forsyth High School | Senior Portraits | Class of 2017 |

It’s time to show off Ella’s senior portraits today! Ella is a Maroa-Forsyth High School senior this year and she was so much fun to photograph. We spent some time in the studio here then headed out to Lake Decatur before making our way to the gym and football field for a few to showcase her cheer.

Who else is missing beautiful warm sunny weather like this?!?! I’m so ready to get back out and work in some warm spring weather (it’s coming SOON, right?!?!).

I’m really excited about her album design and love the modern element of the diamond which worked perfectly to add a little flare to her designs.

| Jaxson | Maroa-Forsyth Senior Class of 2017 | Decatur IL |

Take a look at Jaxson! Our latest Maroa-Forsyth High School senior class of 2017. His order is about to go home today so it seemed like a good time to show him off on the blog.

Jaxson’s session worked out perfectly…. we were afraid we might get rained out but decided since we were starting in the studio to go for it and see if we could outlast the rain (and if not, just reschedule the location portion of the session). Well, not only did we outlast the rain, but we got some amazing clouds/lighting in the process.

Jaxson and his dad kicked off the session solo in the studio and were prepped with outfits carefully prepared but with instructions from his mom to photograph him as he came which was awesome! Mom’s take note, it’s ok if your senior wears cutoff shirts and sweatpants daily we will absolutely photography them as they are.

| Katie | Senior Portraits Decatur IL |

Today I’m excited to show off some of Katie’s favorite images from her senior session! She was such a sweetheart and I had a blast photographing her in the studio this month. I met Katie and her sister at last year’s Neuhoff Media’s Lady Palooza where they both jumped in and pre-booked Katie’s senior session and her sister’s family session (coming up this fall). I just love it when new clients love the work and we click right away (one of my favorite parts of those shopping nights is chatting with new people!!).

We are right in the heat of senior portrait season for the class of 2015 and before we officially kick off the 2014-2015 school year (in like a month… AHHH) I wanted to let the class of 2014 have a little more time in the spotlight.

To start with, here’s Amber (Mt. Zion High School Senior, class of 2014)… If you follow me on instagram you may remember this from Amber’s session:

As you can see we got a little (a LOT) wet on her session when a sudden monsoon hit when we were in the middle of a downtown alley. The rain really snuck up on us and though we tried to wait it out we soon realized there was no way to not get wet (soaked) so we’d have to reschedule the rest of her session… but before we called it a day I asked Amber if she’d be up for just going for it and getting totally soaked for a few images. She didn’t even hesitate to say yes and the images we created ended up being some of their favorites.

Check out some of the senior pictures we created for Amber this summer:

| Zach | Warrensburg-Latham Senior 2014 | Sarah Jane Photography |

I LOVED Zach’s senior session, which we did completely on location at Warrensburg-Latham High School. What better way to commemorate high school senior portraits than to have them AT the high school?! Zach is very involved with his school, and very talented as you can see… he’s appeared in numerous plays and musicals for his school and others and he plays the clarinet (just like I did for a bit in high school) for the school’s marching band.

We had a gorgeous day and a lovely sunset which was the perfect way to finish the session. Only for just a bit did we think we had terrible planning and that there might be a track meat scheduled that we didn’t know about, but luckily the hoards of buses that pulled into the school parking lot as we started the session were full of volleyball girls (whew).

Well, be sure to head over to the Sarah Jane Photography Facebook Page to view Zach’s gallery and be sure to give him a few LIKES so we can post more images.
