Mckenzie Carter / 2011 Senior Rep / Salem, OR Senior Photographer

Mckenzie is my first Senior Rep for 2011. I've had lots of applications coming in but this girl not only turned hers in first, I was very impressed with her application and how seriously she took this opportunity. I'm still accepting applications and most likely there's still a spot left at YOUR school! Download your application here and be sure to shoot me an email or comment here if you are planning to apply!

I want you all to get to know one of the new faces of Ashley Sturm Photography, Mckenzie Carter. I've had loads of fun becoming acquainted with this bubbly, energetic, intelligent teen.

Here are a few fun facts about her:

• Some of her favorite clothing stores include: Nordstrom, Buckle, Charlotte Russe, Forever 21 and Maurices.

• Extra Curricular Activities: Volleyball & Basketball.

• I asked if she had a style her peers want to emulate, here's what she answered:
"If I had to put a label on my style it would probably be sassy, fun, confident and girly all mixed into one."

• She plans to pursue her degree in Business and after college open a boutique shop in Portland or Seattle, and eventually bring her own line of clothing into the shop. (How cool is that!)

She looks stunning in this shoot above.

These are the 4x6 promo cards I ordered her, aren't they cool?

I don't think either of us can wait for her Spring shoot in May. We've begun planning all the fun details and I'm sure it will involve color, fashion, and just the right amount of 'edge'.

Once again, I'm still accepting applications for 2011 Senior Reps so if you're currently a Junior and think you may have what it takes, download the application and send it in today!

Portraits from some of my 2010 seniors.

Kaari Previews / Senior Photographer / Salem OR

Simply stunning. More photos of Kaari coming soon, had to share some previews!

Zach Leon / Salem OR Senior Photographer

You don't have to take my word for it when I say Zach likes plaid! I can't blame him, I've been loving me some plaid for years now and being in all the woodsy natural settings we were it seemed fitting. He's a 2010 Sprague senior interested in graphic and web design. He found me through a web class were they were critiquing local photographer's website. Phew, good thing I've got a slick site designed by Bludomain!

Rambling....anyway, I had a blast visiting all these cool locations Zach had scouted out himself. They're places he goes with friends and people that matter, so I think it was the perfect setting for his photos. There may have been a serious hike at the end up a muddy slippery hill (wasn't a big fan) and cold gusts of wind, but at the end of it all I'm just so thankful to have this job where I interact and meet new people everyday.

Zach's a cool guy!

Anahi / Senior / Salem OR Photography

I'm still catching up from the last few month's shoots. It's fun to see referrals coming in and know people are having a good experience and want to share that with their friends. Melissa Luu was my first 2010 senior of the season, who referred Rei Rei and Kim, who knows Anahi. She brought along her whole family, and they were such good sports while we filled her two hour session with a variety of locations, outfits, and poses.

She's got these beautiful big brown eyes that I adore!

Kim N / Senior / Salem OR Photographer

Kim was stunning throughout her entire shoot, she turned each picture into a beautiful moment. Her goal is to eventually to be a newcaster on TV, and I say go get em'! I love talking to seniors that have big dreams, hearing the excitement and innocence as they imagine what they may become.

I really had a hard time narrowing down the photos to post, cause she dominated this session! You'll be seeing her someday, on TV.

; )

Ben Ishii / Senior / Salem OR Photographer

Ben and I share quite a few things in common, believe it or not. We live on the same street, both our parents go to Foothills church in Stayton, and both of us swim (in my case swam) in high school. We could almost be twins...almost ;).

He had the great idea of contacting local Willamette University to shoot at their pool so we started it off there and meandered around the campus the rest of the shoot. I love all this location has to offer, and I felt it really complimented Ben's personality! He is such a sweetheart, and he sports his letterman's jacket with style!

Rei Rei / Senior / Salem OR Photography

Rei Rei has style and plenty of personality. Two ingredients for a successful, fun shoot that end with colorful photos that really express you! She came into the shoot with a lot of great ideas, and I love it when everything comes together so beautifully. Take a gander.
