Congratulations to everyone who is graduating this year – you made it!

This group of good friends booked a mini session to celebrate the end of their time together at high school before they all go their separate ways. Michele told me they just wanted some fun, happy pictures to remember each other next year. They brought their new college sweatshirts and, joy of joys, an early morning junk food picnic which always makes for some fun shots. Gummy worm, anyone?

Look how these big guys are growing up so fast! This time they brought Gramps and Mimi with them.

I’m sorry I missed what Mimi was getting up to behind me here, but she sure does know how to make her grandbabies laugh…

She was visiting OSU from California, and Corvallis treated us to one of those pretty spring afternoons when the rain clouds drift away, the blossoms look extra pretty, and all the students run outside to bask in the sun! It was so fun to stroll around campus with Cassie and her mom – we had a lovely time!

Ladies, if you’re thinking about what to wear for your senior portraits, Cassie did a wonderful job of choosing her outfits and preparing for her session. She chose one dressy outfit, one with jeans (she’s a jeans and t-shirt gal at heart!) and one pretty dressy/casual outfit. All of the outfits look wonderful on her and include layers, sleeves and cute accessories. That gorgeous bracelet with her coral cardigan came from her favorite California jewelery store Charming Charlie which I hadn’t heard of but I just found at least twenty things that I love on their website!

Cassie – it was lovely to meet you. Congratulations on all your accomplishments, and welcome to Corvallis!
