Meet Grace, a senior at Wayne Christian School and a 2020 senior spokesmodel! She is my first senior from Wayne Christian and even though we didn’t meet until she joined the team, we are connected in so many ways!
I didn’t know it at the time but she is the little sister to my boyfriend’s best friend’s husband…you know, just some small world type of stuff. Now I don’t know how I lived life without knowing Grace because I see her all the time with family friends and other spokesmodels!
She will be attending North Greenville College next year and joining their cheer team. She’s majoring in outdoor leadership, so of course we had to capture her love of being outside. Even though she can apply makeup like a professional, she also loves living her life barefoot. One of her first adventures in college will be snow camping…what?! She said she’s excited and I’m just glad I’m not invited, haha.
Grace wanted something a little different for her session. She obviously love the woods and being near water but she didn’t necessarily want “beachy.” With all of the beaches being closed, I remembered Carolina Beach State Park and it was actually the PERFECT location! The sand provides enough light to make skin tones pretty but it’s filled with different types of tress, grass, and plants to give the wild vibe.
Needless to say, I’M IN LOVE. I think we captured her personality perfectly…blonde, barefoot, in a flowy dress, and surrounded by nature.
Here are a few of my favorites!
We can’t forget the photos with the besties!!! I love hanging out with these girls exploring through Carolina Beach State Park!
