Urban Eyes

Monday, August 3, 2009 Posted in Models-Seniors

2010 Senior Spokesmodel, Samantha, loves to “cowgirl-up” and feels more at home on horseback in the country than posing in the big city of Livingston, Montana, but boy did she rise to the occasion!  It was a little unnerving for her when passing cars would slow down to watch, wondering who the “model” was and if  “the photographer” was shooting a Guess Jeans ad or a session for VOGUE, but we managed to ignore the attention and plod on.

I’ve discovered that High School Seniors are willing to do almost anything to “get the shot”….and I can’t express how much fun that is for me as an artist!  We, after all…have the same goal….to capture you at your best and as the unique and beautiful individual that you are!  You sat in old tires.  You climbed back-alley stairs to rooftops (even though you’re afraid of heights) and you looked at me with your Urban Eyes…you are young and beautiful and have a million places to be and go as a young person.  It is my privilege to photograph you and all High School Seniors at this pivotal stage in your lives…I await the future…

Michele Webb - It’s hard to believe my beautiful daughter is going to graduate in 2010. The photo sessions were so wonderful, and I cannot thank Susann enough. She truly captured Sammy’s eyes in a way that no other could. She sure got her Grandpa Gene’s eyes!! The pictures with her horse bring back memories of her wanting a pony since she was a little girl. Her grandma Bonnie bought Sammy and her brother Mike stick horses, and that seemed to satisfy them at the time. Sammy’s was a pink stick horse! Then just a few years later, she was buying her very own real horse, Wiggy. She is a country girl at heart, but the urban scenes were just breathtaking! I am so proud of my daughter, I just cannot describe it words. God Speed, Samantha, take the world and run with it! There is so much out there for you!! Thank you Susann from the bottom of our hearts!
