Senior spotlight: Kassidy Meadows class of ‘24
I’m just going to say it, I’m a HUGE Kassidy fan! She called me up to book her session and I immediately loved her. It felt like talking to an old friend, one I very quickly forgot was only 17 years old. She’s so thoughtful of others, and has a quiet confidence that I would venture to say probably makes her a good role model and leader in the right situations. The importance of music in her life stood out when we were chatting, so I decided to take her to a record store for part of her session and she trusted my vision for it! I don’t know if it’s her waist length straight blonde locks, her clean and natural beauty style, or some of her taste in music, but I was feeling like some 60’s/70’s vibes should be incorporated in at least one of her outfits (she agreed to two!😆). The image you see above was featured as a full spread in the latest issue of Senior Luxe Magazine. Kassi is also a dedicated volleyball player and she let me photograph that part of her life in a way I had been dying to try out in a studio setting. If you haven’t had the privilege of meeting Kassidy, you’re missing out!
