A few weeks ago, the website Seniorologie announced they would be celebrating their one year birthday! In addition to celebrating all month with birthday related giveaways and posts, they wanted to see any other photographers’ birthday concept shoots. Early this week, I was soooo incredibly excited to see a birthday shoot that I put together featured on their website! Click here for the Seniorologie post and read all about my inspiration for the shoot. Then come back here and scroll down for more from this fun shoot!
Some of the fun details….cake topper, mini cameras, “Dots” rings!
Ribbons, and scrap paper confetti made with my shredder!
I don’t know about you guys, but I have a list for everything! Sometimes 2 lists! ;) My doggie helper of the day!
When I decided to order 30 balloons, I didn’t even think about transporting them (which became a tangled mess)
and then where to keep them until the shoot!
I absolutely adore these little vintage looking cameras!
After all the prop preparation – it’s Makeup time!
And then finally….it all comes together!
I was trying not to duplicate images that were in the Seniorologie post, but I have to share this one again, because I literally have had this idea in my head for years! I have always wanted to recreate different memorable movie scenes and this shoot was perfect to recreate the final scene from the movie “Sixteen Candles!” Make a Wish!
Thanks to Leslie from Seniorologie for creating such an awesome resource for senior portrait photographers. If it weren’t for your “birthday,” I probably wouldn’t have had a reason to pull this all together!
By the way…if anyone can get me access to a school (legally, of course), I have lots of other memorable movie scenes that I would love to recreate!
*wink, wink, but seriously!*
And lastly, you must go watch the video from this shoot!! and don’t miss the Outtakes! :)
