When I received an email from one of my past Senior’s Mama about taking photos of the dance team she worked with, I have to say I was at first a bit reluctant. Working with my Senior girls is one thing- we run around for 2 hrs. having a blast, and it is just so laid back and fun-and one person. This was a High School girl dance team consisting of 25 GIRLS!!! *gulp* Yeah, not sure about that. But Kathy told me how she wanted something unique, something different for these girls to look back on rather than the “normal” dance team shots. I’m always up for what I would view as a “good challenge” so I accepted.
Can I just say THANK YOU Kathy?! Totally blew my expectations out of the water! These girls ROCKED, and as I told Kathy in an email afterwords, I know I would fall madly in love with them if I got to spend any more time with them! They were a delight to work with.
Now I am happy to present: The Mason High School Dance team!!!
This first shot I was just testing the light while they showed me a dance….wish I would have taken more of them dancing.
Aren’t they just adorable!?!
We just had to do it up studio3z style. :) And trust me, they had NO TROUBLE showing me what they’ve got!
Our sky was UNREAL that day.
THE FRESHMEN!
THE SOPHOMORES!
JUNIORS!!
SENIORS BABY!!!
The GORGEOUS coaches!!! Emily on the left, and Kathy on the right who is the Mama of one of my favorite people I have EVER photographed- Mary. :)
The silly shot…..You always have to have one.
We never have people to take photos of the 2 of us in action but happened to for this shoot (2 wks. ago), and the one in Cali this past weekend. A major “DUH” to me about wearing the same outfit??! What a dork-ball. Next time I bring someone along to take photos of us in action I’ll be sure to wear this sweater again.
Speaking of that someone, my friend Meagan (and also former Senior) came along to shoot, take photos of us, and best of all make a coffee run for us!! ;) Thanks Meagan!
Thanks to ALLLLL you girlies!! You were so great to work with.
Ok, I’m off to go dance myself. ;)

You never cease to impress me. One of my favorite things to do in the morning is get a cup of coffee and surf your blog. Thanks for posting!
oops, I realized I posted the wrong blog link, let’s try this again. lol.
Can I just tell you that I WISH I had photos like these from when I was in school? They are just so fabulous. (And as a side note: no “gulp” necessary – I’m pretty sure you two could photograph AN.Y.THING. and have that fabulousness come across.)
i just wanted to say thanks SSSSOOO much for taking our photos for Mason High School. We ALL are in love with them. But we all wanted to put them on our own facebook’s and things like that but you cant copy them ?! We can’t figure out how to copy them to our computer and put them on our websites. Just curious on how you do that. If you could email me back that’d be great(: THANKS !!! You and brett are adorable and AMAZINGG !
