What was your inspiration for this photo shoot?
Our inspiration for this shoot was the location, the Antique Rose Farm in Snohomish, WA.  Although this shoot took place in February and the roses weren’t in bloom, the talented Althauser Design (http://althauserdesign.com/) dressed the area up with her gorgeous floral designs and created the perfect setting.  We imagined a fun group of girls getting together for a rose garden tea party and then brought that vision to life using the setting and the styling.

Where did this photo shoot take place?
The Antique Rose Farm in Snohomish, WA.  Although they aren’t normally open in February, they generously let us use their gorgeous space for this shoot.  It was absolutely FREEZING, but you wouldn’t know it from how flawlessly our seniors modeled!

Did you collaborate with this senior to come up with the clothing and/or concept for this shoot?
We were fortunate to work with an amazing local stylist, to come up with the clothing and accessories for this shoot.  Everything was sourced from local Snohomish shops including Joyworks (http://joyworks-shopgirl.blogspot.com), D’Marie Vintage (http://www.myfairladystyle.com) and Jadyne’s Room (http://www.jadynesroom.com).  We also had two incredibly talented hair/makeup artists on our team: Hannah ofhttp://www.urbanistaweddings.comand Hanna ofhttp://www.hannamazur.com.  Our stylist, Sarah, met with the girls prior to the shoot to select the perfect pieces for them and the entire team worked together on the day of the shoot to make everything seamless and pamper our models!

What is your favorite thing about this session?
Definitely the awesome group of girls!…Although they didn’t know each other going into the shoot, by the end of the day everyone was acting like old friends and it was so much fun! It was also awesome to see the entire vision come to life after all of the planning and coordinating, and to see the girls loosen up and feel beautiful in front of our cameras!
