Shawnee' Senior Pictures

Last week, I traveled to North Salem, Indiana to take some senior photos for Miss Shawnee', who will be graduating in 2009.

Where is North Salem?

I have no idea... I just know that I was driving on some dirt roads just to get there.

Here's North Salem:



Yea- it's wayyy out there.

We started out at Shawnee's great-Aunt Janet's house in the country. This house is unbelievable. Her great-uncle built most of it from wood from the plethora of trees on his property. Everything in it is nearly all antiques or handmade.

It was like stepping back in time.

So quaint and cozy.

Here's the porch of this beautiful log cabin. + Shawnee playing her grandpa's old guitar.













After we got comfy with the surroundings, we added Shawnee's mom Denee' and little sister Sonora.

Meet mom:





And now Sonora....











Shawnee' is a HUGE part of 4-H in her county. She's won several awards, trophies as well as other first places prizes in both county and state competitions.

When I saw her outfit for the photo shoot, I had some fun ideas instantly.

So we finally headed out from her aunt's house and towards town when we decided to pull over and get some fun pics on the road. And of course, my obligatory Silhouette picture that I know you're all so tired of









FAVE ALERT





When we finished up on the side of the road we headed into downtown North Salem to see what kinds of fun stuff we could find.

Brick Wall + Large Door. CHECK!





Railroad Track.... CHECK!









Awesome grass to lay in with mom+Sonora ... CHECK!





Shawnee' was up for anything and of course I was so excited about that. HOWEVER there was one thing that she just wasn't willing to do.

While we were at her Aunt's house, we located an old outhouse.

And I mean really, what was I supposed to do? This would be WAY too awesome.

So I asked.

And she declined.

So her mom made her.



...and it turned out just as I expected.



Can you see this in a large canvas print hanging in a western themed bathroom?



YES!!!!









Can that get any more awesome?!?!?!
