It was a humid Saturday, the AC was cranking at the house and I had the privilege to chat up Lauren and her Mom, while I did Lauren’s makeup for her session. Lauren just finished her Junior year at Lawrence High School where she is a cheerleader and plays lacrosse. This was a fun session to celebrate her and this moment in her life. And let me tell you, this girl came prepared! A luggage bag of outfits, shoes, makeup, accessories… so many options… every one of them defining her style, her personality, and a glimpse in time of who she is.

(I secretly want her to be my personal stylist…)

With makeup done and outfits selected, we set off for downtown Bangor, in search of industrial and urban scenery. Lauren quickly became comfortable with the area, taking charge and making it her own. Whether she leaned on brick walls, posed in alleys, climbed and tucked into different building outposts, lounged on street benches or laid on the park walkways, we were able to capture a multitude of shots, and angles to make the session truly, her own.

It was an absolute joy to photograph, Lauren, and get to know her and her Mom. I hope you enjoy Lauren’s favorites from her session.
