High School Senior Photos At White Lake | Leeah Mills

August 26, 2020

Summer high school senior photos at White Lake, NC

The 2021 Senior session is in full swing with another member of my 2021 spokesmodel team –– Leeah Mills! She is a senior at Wayne Christian School, where she’s involved in multiple sports and the praise team. She spends a LOT of time at her family’s place at White Lake driving the boat around and wake-boarding.

It just wouldn’t feel right if we didn’t have some photos at her second home, so when she and her mom asked to come to the lake to shoot on the boat and in the water I was super excited to try something new!!

Leeah is super outgoing and has made it a mission to meet all of the people at White Lake. Even as we were out on the water, she was pointing out all of the people driving by based on their boats! I think it’s so fun that her family had a place for all of the cousins to grow up together and that even with the limitations this year, she was able to have a really fun, active summer!

I am in love with the spanish moss draping over the water and the bright light on the boat, and we even got some with her wakeboard in the water. Choosing a location that is so special to you and then allowing me to work my own magic is always creates the most meaningful and beautiful photos!!!
