Summer Senior Session at Longwood Gardens

Aug 1, 2024

Abby’s summer senior session at Longwood Gardens was nothing short of magical. Abby is the sweetest, and her smile lights up any space. Her adorable freckles stole the show! I’m so jealous because mine only appear during the summer, but hers are a permanent and lovely feature.

She seriously is the cutest and such a joy to be around.

Abby is planning to go to college next year to study architecture. I may have freaked out when she said that! Coincidentally, that was my major in college, so it was a blast talking to her about it. Although I switched to photography (which I had a minor in), I still loved every minute of my time as an architectural designer.

It will forever hold a special place in my heart.

We kicked off the session by the gorgeous fountain area. Abby’s jeans and flowy white shirt complemented the setting beautifully. Her smile and the serene surroundings set the tone for a wonderful evening.

Before we moved to a new spot, Abby did a quick change into a stunning long, green floral dress. The dress made her pop against the lush backdrop, highlighting her natural beauty and grace.

It was a breathtaking combination!

Next, we headed to a charming white building adorned with ivy. Abby’s flowy white skirt and floral top created a vibe that felt like she had escaped to Italy. I actually studied abroad there for my architecture major. Photographing these photos made me reminisce of those memories. (Who knows, maybe she will get to study there someday, too).

The setting was perfect, and Abby looked absolutely radiant.

We wrapped up the session with Abby in a long, elegant light pink floral dress. The sun was just getting ready to set, and the gardens surrounding her made her look like she was one with the flowers. The entire scene was beautiful and tranquil, capturing Abby’s beauty perfectly. Just wait till you scroll through the photos below.

I am pretty sure I freaked out with each camera shutter click I made!

Thank you, Abby, for such a delightful and memorable summer senior session at Longwood Gardens. I loved that you brought your family along! They are just as sweet and made the session so fun! It was an absolute pleasure to capture your radiant spirit and share in your excitement for the future. Have an amazing senior year!

XOXO ~ Heather Marie
