Wrightsville Beach, NC Senior Photos | Shae Odom

March 19, 2020

Sweet Shae!!! I seriously love this girl –– you know how there are some people you just feel drawn to? Every time I’m around Shae there’s just a calming but fun feeling and I am so grateful for that on the crazy spokesmodel days!

She is a member of my 2020 spokesmodel team and a senior at Wayne Country Day School…and she does makeup SO WELL. Seriously, she did that herself!

Shae is a girl after my own heart and loves bright colors and coastal towns, so I was really thankful the flowers started blooming right in time for her session. We started at the Arboretum to take advantage of their newly planted blooms and then headed to Wrightsville Beach!

Working around a lot of people out and about can be tricky and a little nerve-wracking for those in front of the camera, but she’s a natural and rocked it. I love the ones of her in front of Robert’s Grocery. She looks like she belongs in a magazine!

I’m sad that I only have one more official shoot with her and the rest of the team, but still so thankful we started this relationship now because I will definitely be visiting her at Campbell University next year!!

Enjoy my favorites from her senior photos 🙂
