Senior Picture

When I was a senior in high school, it was mandatory that we had to all get our senior pictures taken for the year book at the same photography studio - someplace akin to a Sears picture place, which made us all look like your typical senior dork. I had super short hair and in the picture looked like a small, timid, boy child. 

These days, I've learned, that they allow students to get them taken by whomever wherever, so while up at Lake Superior last week, my soon-to-be-senior niece Sophie (you may have seen her on Closet Visit) asked le mari to photograph her for her senior picture. She's so gorgeous and such a sweet, smart and feisty girl. I'm very proud to be her auntie. 

I wanted to share some outtakes. Because, unknowingly, the outtakes turned out to be a possibly amazing ad campaign for the messenger bag.

Of course it could also be a hot ad campaign for Sperry Top Siders and Ray Bans and whatever else she was wearing that day. :)

Here we are walking to our "location" for her shots. She's a pretty good rack for CV bags. Silver bando anyone? :) 

Somehow I doubt Sophie will every think her senior pics are dorky.
