It’s such a huge honor and always so incredibly exciting to see one of your images published.  When I heard Denim + Grace was including one of Kayla’s images in their June 2013 “The Encore Issue,” I think I did a little happy dance.  Actually, I don’t think I did, I know I did and I’m sure more accurately, I squealed a bit too!

Guess what day it is??  Nope – not Hump day and this isn’t the Geico Camel commercial, although, I do love that commercial!  :)

It’s actually the final day to enter Chic Critique Forum‘s Chic Magazine Cover Contest!

I am so excited to enter one of Kathryn Dickerson’s images from our Once Upon a Summer styled shoot!  This is my submission for Issue 7!

Wish me luck!  I would be ecstatic to see this on the cover.  *fingers crossed*   Every little bit helps right?!  ;)  Have a great weekend everyone!

Parkview High School has been so good to me!  I’ve been so incredibly fortunate to have most of my seniors from Parkview and wow, aren’t they all just fabulous?!  ;)  I might be biased, but really I think it’s totally true!!

I met Class of 2014′s Casey DeArmon a while back.  We needed another model for our Once Upon a Summer styled shoot and I reached out to Devan, one of the other models, and said “Hey!  Do you have any friends who can help us out for this shoot?”  Casey was the perfect addition to our styled shoot and lucky for me, also became my very first Class of 2014 Senior!!

Meeting with Casey and her mom Becky was like meeting and hanging out with friends that you have known forever!  And it’s pretty much been like that ever since.   During that first meeting, like all my meetings with my seniors, I asked Casey “what can’t you leave the house without?”  Her answer, “My journal.”  Seriously?  I absolutely love that!  She also spends a lot of her spare time volunteering and helping others.  Casey just has the biggest heart and her kindness and generosity is so inspiring.  She is truly unique and, as you’ll see from her Senior Portraits, is just as beautiful on the outside as she is on the inside.

P.S.  Doesn’t she totally look like Nina Dobrev from CW’s “The Vampire Diaries?”   Umm…Casey, they film in Atlanta – just sayin’ Nina may need a body double sometime and you better take me to set with you if that day ever happens!  ;)

“I just want to start off and say I had an absolute blast meeting Tricia, planning my outfits and where we would go to shoot, and I especially had a blast the whole day I shot with her!  Tricia is so easy to talk to and she is 100% trying to photograph YOUR personality.

I picked out a variety of outfits and she also gave her opinion on the outfits and where each one would fit best with the venue.  She also has an amazing selection of accessories that would make any girl happy.

The day of the shoot was so much fun!  I loved getting my makeup done and feeling fabulous.  While shooting with Tricia it was so much fun and she knows how to make you laugh and feel as comfortable as possible!  I made so many memories in just that one day.  Throughout the shoot she would ask me how I was doing and she would constantly show me pictures that she loved and wanted to make sure that I loved them too.  The answer was always yes of course.

I wish I could re-do this day over and over again!  She definitely made me feel beautiful through the pictures!”

“We were so lucky to have a close family friend use Tricia Toker for her Senior pictures and did not have to go looking for a photographer.  When my daughter Casey saw Devan’s photos, she knew right away this was the photographer for her, I agreed also!

We just had Casey’s photo shoot 2 days ago and it was absolutely the best time ever with a photographer and make-up artist!  Tricia and Laura Briscoe have a way of capturing just who you truly are!  They both are all about making your Senior pictures the best they can be.

Tricia has such a passion for her work and it shows in every shot she takes.  I can not wait to see all the photos from Casey’s shoot, I know I will love every one of them!  I will definitely recommend Tricia Toker Photography to anyone looking for a Senior portrait photographer!  She is an amazing person and photographer!”
