Lexy | Warrenton, Virginia Farm Senior Portrait Photographer

Lexy comes from a senior class size of 12 students! Wow! Can you imagine only having 11 others in your high school senior class? I believe mine had three hundred and some number of classmates. That’s a huge difference! She will be making her way across the stage soon to move forward with college and I know she will excel wherever her heart leads her. 🙂

Lexy is a super down to earth kind of gal who doesn’t mind getting a little dirty in her nice attire. Otherwise, I probably would not have recommended this farm atmosphere. 😉 Such a fun session running around “chasing the light” and man oh man, did we find gorgeous lighting at the end of the session!!! This sunset lighting is what I dream of for every session … I wish. 😉 Not to mention that I envy her long hazel brown hair! Especially when the sun started to set, a halo of light formed around her and the soy beans creating this magical atmosphere.

Thank you Lexy for going through the cow pies and soy bean field for these photos! I would say it was definitely worth it! 😉 Enjoy some of my favorites and best wishes to you during this final year of high school!!!
