Sabra, Class of 2021 ...

The Art Museum was the perfect place to start with this columnesque senior! We had another lovely October evening to enjoy and many Cincinnatians seemed to feel the same as Eden Park was riddled with folks walking, running or scaling the old reservoir walls. It was so nice to see the trees turning and have that Autumn color come so naturally into our evening.

Sabra and Jaychele, thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to shoot these portraits. I am so impressed with your tenacity in life, Sabra. Your tendancy towards trying new things and just jumping in is admirable! I am looking forward to seeing where it takes you!

I hope you have an incredible year! Thanks again! ~ B

Madison, Class of 2021 ...

The lovely Madison, her wondeful momma and I met at Yeatman's cove on a close to perfect Fall day, which included a superb amount of sun and grey cover. When we wound our way to Smale those skies gave in to temperamental clouds which painted Cincinnati in a way that added depth to every corner. While other folks headed in, we stayed out to use what little light was left for a some drama in our shots. I think it played out very well as evidenced by the gorgeous sunset we witnessed! Regardless, I enjoyed the time and am so grateful, Madison and Dana, that you allowed me the time. I hope you have a wonderful year, thank you so much for entrusting me! ~ B

Kelsie, Class of 2021 …

The lovely Kelsie and her mom met me at Yeatman's Cove where we wound our way through the Serpentine Wall, into Downtown and over to Smale. Kelsie was graceful and easy to shoot, without hesitation to shift between spots. Her kind character shown through the entire night!

Kelsie, it was so nice meeting you. I hope you have a terrific year despite this craziness. Your ease will lend itself well as you go! Angi, thanks again for allowing me the pleasure of taking another one of your gorgeous girls' portraits! You guys are a beautiful family! ~ B

Isabel, Class of 2021 ...

Mid-September is always a favorite in Cincinnati. The colors just shift enough that you see vibrant hints of Autumn while the Goldenrod displays itself the most bold of yellow yet. Placing this beautiful senior in the midst of them seemed perfect and they did not disappoint.

Isabel, thank you for entrusting me with your photos. I had a wonderful time. I wish you the best for your senior year and look forward to hearing where you end up. Best wishes! ~ B

Ethan, Class of 2021 ...

The Pendleton neighborhood of Cincinnati is a favorite area of mine. It was the perfect spot to meet this handsome senior for pictures. If you haven't been in awhile, I encourage you to go. The streets are lined with so many wonderful restaurants and hidden murals in the alley ways just flip the switch on an otherwise quiet part of downtown. Ethan, his Dad and I made our way easily around and finished up at Smale for the never disappointing Roebling.

Ethan, it was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you so much for the time. I am excited to hear where you end up. Meanwhile, I am not so secretly, rooting for UC. Go Bearcats! ☺️ Congrats on senior year!

Raygen, Class of 2021 ...

Downtown was the perfect spot for this striking senior. We wound our way from Lytle Park to Fountain Square, finding many great spots and enjoying the oddly quiet streets. The light was perfect as it dipped between the buildings and encased the surrounding windows in glimmers of gold. Raygen fit in so perfectly with this urban backdrop and it was only made better by the massive clouds and colors that exploded at our session's end.

Raygen and Stacey, it was so lovely walking with you two. Thank you so much for allowing me to shoot your senior portraits. I know the school year is beginning in an odd way but I truly hope that it becomes memorable to you for so much more than this! Congratulations on senior year! Best wishes! ~ B

Kenna, Class of 2021 ...

The Cincinnati Nature Center is always brimming with beauty. No matter the season. The night of this shoot was a quiet walk on a typical Summer evening but like so few places, the CNC had us navigating our way around gorgeous monarchs and a plethora of beautiful hummingbird moths! I always see something new here in this perfect backdrop.

Kenna and Megan, it was wonderful meeting you both. Thank you so much for the time! I hope this year, despite its current M.O., is the absolute greatest one yet! ~ B

Sweet Olivia ...

This bright eyed beauty and her family met me on a calm night at Ault. She was an easy going babe who was so interested in the happenings around her. Her sweet baby blues were an easy window to her emotions.

Rachel, Sam and Olivia, it was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you for the time. You've got one precious kiddo who, I'm sure, will be running in no time. ~ B

Sunflower Fields ...

Every year these fields spoil us with color and this year I was lucky enough to meet a beautiful friend and her gorgeous girls there for quick photos! Candace, I cannot believe how quickly your girls have turned into young ladies, nor how much your heritage can be seen in them. Thank you for giving me the time! Love you my friend! ~ B

Claire, Class of 2021 ...

I spent time with this lovely and talented senior throughout downtown. We started at the Aronoff, a fitting spot for someone who loves theater. The weather was perfect with the occassional breeze to cool us off and we ended up with so many great shots!

Claire, thanks for letting me follow you around with my camera. ;) I truly enjoyed the time with you, your mom and your sweet sister! I hope this is an amazing year for you. I cannot wait to hear about your performances!
