sneak peek : Amy [White Bear Lake]

"It was really fun working with Lance. He made me feel very comfortable having him helping me with poses throughout the shoot. I loved having my best friend be able to come in so we could capture memories for our senior year - and having pictures with my bug at no additional charge was great. Thanks Lance!" - Amy

"It was a great experience and fun to work with Lance. He really knew how to capture Amy's fun side. Being able to have so many options on where to pose while staying in one location was great. Amy being able to have a friend and her "Bug" in shots at no charge was a nice surprise!" - Jeanette, Amy's mom

Here are a few sneak peeks from Christina's senior session last week!!

sneak peek : Jenna [Woodbury]

"I really liked how nice Lance was. He helped coach me through what would look good. I love all the sets - that is one of the main reasons I chose this studio. I looked at a lot of his work beforehand and that really helped me to know what I wanted for my senior pictures! I'm really glad I chose Lance Hill!" - Jenna

"Jenna was very nervous - Lance made her feel relaxed & comfortable. It was helpful to be able to see previous poses (of others) on the website & blog, to give us an idea of what would look good and be fun to try! My favorite set was the tire swing and tall grasses. This was a wonderful experience!" - Shelley, Jenna's mom

sneak peek : Veronica [Roseville]

"Overall it was a great experience. It was a comfortable and fun environment. The jumping shot in my cheer uniform was one of my favorites, it was unique! It was good that there were multiple places for shots and very cool to be the first girl to try posing on the log bench. I also liked that he helped me on my poses, because I had no idea what to do!" - Veronica

"Very impressive the way he worked so well with Veronica and his guidance for poses was outstanding. He really made the pictures special to her. I'm so glad we were referred. I wouldn't have gotten the service we experienced elsewhere. I love that he used my daughter & my help to get the right lighting, it feels personal!" - Wendy, Veronica's mom

Sammi and her parents are family friends of ours - living on the same lake for many years! She is finally a senior at Mounds View - I loved taking her portraits - here are some of my favorites!!

We enjoyed playing around with sports Alexandria is involved in - such as tennis!!

"I liked how Lance made my eyes sparkles by playing around with the lighting. The waterfall was my favorite shot!! Lance made the experience unique and fun!" - Alexandria

"I like how Lance captured the lighting in the hair, eyes and face in the outside shots. I like how he made his portrait into a canvas art! Outside with the water splashing was one of my favorites!" - Carol, Alexandria's mom

Here are a few shots from Dan's senior session - the indoor portion - he can REALLY pull off a suit well!!!

sneak peek : Amanda [White Bear Lake]

Amanda came in for her senior session with a beautiful floral top that looked great both indoors and out. Some fabrics with this type of look, photograph really well! We still recommend staying away from stripes, polka dots, and plaids if possible!

Other top ideas:

express [with dark jeans, skirt, or capris]

hollister [with a jean skirt & gladiator sandals]

abercrombie [with hair curled & wedge heels]

Thanks for coming in Amanda! Here are our favorite shots!

"I'm training for a triathlon and I'm in better shape that I've ever been before. I wanted Lance to capture some body shots of me and he did an excellent job doing so. He used the lighting in the portrait to its fullest potential and also had a large number of backgrounds to choose from. Thanks for the great shots, Lance!" - Chris
