“Doing my senior photos with Tricia was one of the best decisions I have ever made!  A friend of my family, Kayla, had her pictures done with Tricia last year, and I fell in love with them.  I got Tricia’s information from Kayla’s mom, and I contacted her right away.  From our first meeting at Starbucks, I knew the whole experience was going to be a blast… She is very professional, but also takes time to goof off (just like I do)!  She made the entire process so simple by providing me and mom with samples and step-by-step instructions on how to make the shoot go smoothly.  She worked with me and my busy schedule, and by the time the shoot rolled around, we were 100% ready!  We spent the whole morning laughing between shots, with random dance breaks scattered throughout the shoot.  Tricia showed me a few sneak-peeks, and I can’t wait to see the rest of my photos!  I would highly recommend Tricia Toker to any senior girl who is looking for a photographer who will make her feel beautiful, because that’s exactly what she did for me!”

~ Katie  

“Our experience with Tricia Toker was simply fantabulous!  From our very first communication to our final product she was a joy to work with.  She’s professional, kind-hearted and oh so talented!  Her and Katie immediately hit it off and were “girlfriends” on a mission.  She wants you to have the shoot you want to have and works with you every step of the way.  She exceeded our wildest expectations and we hated to see the shoot come to an end.  She truly is the best!”

~ Deb (Katie’s Mom)

I’m a little behind with this “Behind the Scenes / Preview.”  I actually had North Gwinnett High’s Katie Baselj & her family’s Premier Order Session this morning!  I guess technically, this preview is for all of you since Katie and her family have already seen the images, but I do have one surprise for them…some other fun shots that I was able to capture during our time together.  :D  Enjoy this Preview for now and be sure to come back for more from this gorgeous session.  (I might be a little biased)  ;)

I probably should explain this one….some very, very, incredibly loud trains kept coming by and seemed to enjoy making

their presence known every time they passed.

One thing I learned about Katie, she is the master of silly expressions!!  :D

And she always has a way of making you laugh and smile!

and then just as quickly, she can turn on this….   ♥♥♥

Before Atlanta had, not one, but two major snow storms (no laughing) this year, I thought that it would be a fantastic idea to have a “snow shoot.”   Born was the idea of the “Snow Princess” shoot.    *side note – if you haven’t seen the Saturday Night Live take on our first storm this year, please, stop what you are doing right now, and do yourself a favor and CLICK HERE.    “OHHHH Setherie” you won’t regret it, I promise.

Heck, if I had waited a few months, I wouldn’t have had to use my store bought Michael’s craft store snow at all.  ;)

But then again, I wouldn’t have had the fun that I did with Natalie and her mom Cindy that day in the Ingles parking lot!

oh boy….I do realize how country that just sounded.  ;)

I love this next image so, sooo much!  Natalie, you killed this and I couldn’t be happier with the results!  Thank you so much for everything!  I am so happy to have met you and your wonderful family this year!    *HUGS* all around.  :D  ♥ the deLatour Family!!

Do you watch Fox’s Glee?

Peachtree Ridge’s Kristen Borgognoni was my final Class of 2014 Senior (photographed in 2013) and boy did we go out with a bang!  From the second I posted sneak peeks of Kristen, all I heard was “Lea Michele Look-a-like” & “Does this remind you of Lea Michele?” and the most recent post on Instagram – #rachelberrylookalike

I love it!  :)  I don’t personally watch Glee – (sorry!) but I love how so many of you responded to Kristen’s senior portraits!  

Kristen will be in the Miss Peachtree Ridge Pageant this weekend and I wish her TONS of luck!!!!!

Oh my goodness, have I got to play catch up!

Forgive me, because it’s been a while since I’ve done a session blog post, but I’m back and trying to get all caught up again!  ;)

First up – we have Peachtree Ridge’s Paige Guerreso!

I can’t say enough about Paige and her mom Julie.  Between consultation, shoot, order session, delivery, etc…I think I spent every weekend for about 6 weeks with them.  After all of that, I was having serious Guerreso family withdrawals because they are such a sweet family!   And let me tell you, their kitchen smelled wonderful – every . single . time.  ;)  I didn’t try the food, but if it tasted a smidge of how wonderful it smelled, I might still be over at their house.  All of those wonderful italian aromas…meatballs and gnocchi….

wait, maybe you shouldn’t blog post or grocery shop when you are hungry, right?  ;)

seriously, Paige – this is gorgeous!!  ♥♥♥

awww….looking at these makes me feel like it’s time to visit the Guerreso’s again!  This was one of those shoots that had just as many interesting stories as it does beautiful images!  Like the completely unexpected sun shower, or the random truck driving behind us in the field.  It’s these moments though, that make all of my senior sessions so memorable.  :D

That’s all for now….Anyone else feel like meatballs?

“When I started thinking about senior pictures I realized I wanted them to reflect my style and personality.  I wanted outdoor pictures and wanted to have multiple outfits.  I felt that going to a studio would not have been personal and I wouldn’t love the pictures. When we found Tricia’s website, my first thought was that it was exactly what I wanted, so I applied to be a senior spokesmodel!

Tricia has a true passion for photography and is very personable. We stayed in contact throughout the planning of the shoot and she helped us to pick clothing, accessories, and locations.  She makes the whole experience very fun and easy!  Tricia will do anything to get the perfect shot and is very dedicated to her work.

I would highly recommend Tricia to anyone who wants a personal senior picture experience.  My shoot was tons of fun, and the pictures are amazing!”

“As it was coming time to find someone to do my senior pictures I started to research different photographers because I wanted something different than my older siblings. I saw that a few other girls that I knew had used Tricia for their senior pictures and when I saw their pictures I fell in love with Tricia’s work! I immediately had my mom contact Tricia and we set up a date to shoot right away. I really enjoyed my whole experience working with Tricia because she stayed in contact with me the whole time. She had me set up a Pinterest account so she could see my style, what kind of pictures I wanted and the kind of makeup look I would want. It was also very helpful that when I had my outfits and locations picked out that she helped me choose which outfit to go with which location. I was very nervous going into the shoot because I had never done anything like this before, but she made me feel very comfortable and we were laughing the whole time and I had so much fun! Overall, I loved my final pictures and I would honestly recommend Tricia Toker to any girl looking for someone to do their senior pictures!”

- Paige

“It was time to choose a photographer for my daughter’s senior pictures. Paige was doing her research on photographers and Tricia caught her eye immediately.  With Paige being my third child to do senior pictures I thought I had the experience figured out, but Tricia went above and beyond my expectations. The overall experience that my daughter and I had working with Tricia was amazing!  She was very clear and organized from beginning to end. From working with Paige on Pinterest before the shoot, to photo editing and discussing photo options after the shoot, Tricia made this a personalized experience to remember. She worked with Paige to help decide on jewelry and outfits that would best fit the photo location. The confidence, relaxation and excitement Paige felt was captured in the photos and I couldn’t be happier with the results! If you’re looking for a great senior picture experience I would definitely recommend Tricia Toker.”

Greater Atlanta Christian’s Natalie deLatour is probably one of the sweetest girls I’ve ever met.  She also has one of the nicest, most welcoming families ever.  Like one of those families that you could just sit down at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee and talk for hours.  I just adore all of them!

I remember at our first meeting thinking that Natalie had a fabulous sense of style and fashion.  Everyone knows how I love me some accessories, and shoes, and boots!  So day of her session, when her mom showed me her closet, I could have died and gone to accessory heaven right then and there!  ;)  I was in love!  We didn’t even need any of the accessories that I brought.  I had so much fun styling Natalie with her own wonderful accessories, that I could have spent all day doing just that!!  Maybe I was a stylist in a previous life, because I LOVEEEE it so much!

Anywhoo…let me get back to Natalie and her gorgeous senior portraits.

This is pretty much my dream senior session – beautiful locations, beautiful light – everything was perfect.

Don’t you just love her!  How perfect is Natalie in these?!  ♥ ♥ ♥

Keep an eye out for this super stylish senior!  You will be seeing her again real soon!  ;)

“When I was looking for a senior photographer, I saw that a girl at my school had taken her pictures with Tricia.  I immediately fell in love with her work and I got in touch with her right away.

My experience taking senior pictures with Tricia was the best it could have possibly been.  Tricia is so nice and has the best personality.  Leading up to the day of the shoot, Tricia stayed in contact with me and I never felt unprepared.  She helped me come up with ideas for outfits and makeup.  I never once felt nervous for the shoot.

On the day of the shoot, Tricia and Laura, the makeup artist, were so nice and helped me get everything together.  They are so easy to talk to and made the whole process really fun.  During the shoot, Tricia made me feel so comfortable and once I got used to it I never felt awkward.  Tricia never failed to make me feel pretty in my pictures!

I would recommend Tricia to anyone.  She is so awesome to work with and I wouldn’t change my experience with her for anything.”

- Natalie

“It was getting time to do Senior pictures and my daughter wanted to try someone different than her sister had used.  Tricia Toker was one of her choices.  We met with Tricia and knew right away this would be a great experience. Tricia kept in touch with us leading up to the shoot, working with Natalie on outfits, jewelry, and how she wanted to do her hair.

The morning of the shoot, it was very early, and Natalie and I were wanting everything to go just right.  Tricia and Laura, the make-up artist, arrivedfull of energy and excitement.  The time spent doing make-up was very enjoyable.  Everyone was laughing and having a great time.

When the pictures started, Natalie was relaxed and did great.  It was a memory I will never forget!

The pictures came back and they were amazing!  Tricia did a fantastic job, and truly made Natalie’s Senior picture experience a great one!  Tricia is wonderful to work with, and we highly recommend her as a first choice for senior pictures!”

Peachtree Ridge High School’s Abigail Bennett and her mom are two of the sweetest, kindest people I know.  Spending any afternoon with these ladies, you’ll find lots of fun and lots of laughter!

Like most of my seniors this year, Abigail keeps a busy schedule…as a member of the Peachtree Ridge High Swim Team!  And has received numerous awards as a result of all of her hard work!

In the fall, she’ll be attending one of my personal favorites, Kennesaw State University.  I might be biased though.

Shout out to Blade, one of the coolest little dogs I have met!  :)

Oh…I guess that I should show you some of Abigail’s senior portraits, right?
