I had a wonderful time working with Silvie! She was graduating from Duke University in their Nurse Practitioner (NP) masters program, and it truly was an honor to capture this special achievement for Silvie. The weather was a bit chilly, but fortunately the sun was out to help warm us up! We captured a couple of photos by the famous arches by Duke Chapel, and also took some gorgeous portraits nearby. One of the things I LOVED about the shoot was Silvie’s beautiful, colorful stole! I love it when students incorporate a part of their story and heritage into the session :) Congrats again, Silvie! Best wishes on your next adventure!

It was such a joy working with Amanda, a recent master’s graduate from Duke University! We had a blast capturing photos around Duke Chapel, and one of the things I loved about working with her was her enthusiasm and cheerful nature. We did a lot of portraits as well as fun jumping photos and tossing-the-cap photos!

She also incorporated a Porg plush in her shoot. I learned that the Porgs were created because when filming The Last Jedi, they couldn’t remove the puffins that were on the island. So instead of editing the puffins out, they turned them into Porgs! For her, the Porgs symbolized the idea of making something great out of a bad situation. After being in a career rut, it led her to nurture her passion for health IT and brought her to Duke! I thought that was such a beautiful story, and loved how she incorporate the Porg into her shoot :)
