Beautiful Caris is so stylish! It was easy to photograph her. We did my top session, the "Model for a Day" which includes 3 hours of shooting inside and out. She chose Denton as her outside location.
Caris is finishing up her high school career at Wakeland high school where she was a Drum Major and played clarinet for the band. In her limited free time she loves going for late night drives with her friends and blasting music. They listen to Waves by Kanye West, Sweet Life, by Frank Ocean, I Fall Apart by Post Malone and anything Kendrick Lamar does!

Her favorite memories were made traveling all over Europe for two weeks with her best friends.
Here are some tips for how to prepare for Senior Portraits:
1. Choose clothes that are flattering to you and your figure and coloring regardless of what is in style... If you don't look your best in white jeans. Don't wear them. If the top is completely shapeless and you have a small waist, for heaven's sake, find something fitted, but not super tight to where your underwear shows.
2. Check your fingernails! Make sure they are clean or painted. Chipped fingernail polish looks terrible.
3. Don't tan too much or get a burn before your photos.
4. Your hair will need to move, so even though it may be curled or straightened, it will eventually "fall." Relax and go with it. Movement in hair is beautiful!

5. Bring props that reflect your interests or those you used to enjoy, or plan to major in. You can be creative! If you want to travel the world, bring a globe!
6. Bring more clothes than you think you need. Put the outfits together and get a ziplock bag and put any jewelry, special underwear, or lipstick into in that bag and poke a hole in it and hook it onto the hanger. Time is precious when the light is pretty, and changing needs to be quick!
7. Bring a strapless bra, or better yet, coordinating bralets. Bra straps are nearly impossible to photoshop.
8. Hats make great props. You can wear them, play with them, pose with them. Try to bring a hat for at least one outfit.
9. Take the black ponytail holder that is always around your left wrist off before we start shooting your session! Hahahahahaha!
PS. Tell mom to wear a cute shirt and bring lipstick, but to wear comfortable walking shoes, because I will want to get a photo of her with you if we both remember!
