Kristen Senior Session

Kristen’s Senior Session

Last summer I had the pleasure of photographing this Class of 2015 senior, Kristen! Before we headed out for her session, my friend and professional hair and makeup artist Beckie Davis met up with us at Kristen’s house to get her primped and ready for her portraits! (Learn more about Monique Tervo Design & Photography’s Senior Glam Experience) After about an hour of getting her hair and makeup perfect, we were ready to go!

As we were leaving Kristen’s, I noticed the skies were turning grey. Then, sprinkles were dropping on the windshield. I started pleading with mother nature, especially after just having her hair and makeup done, to please just hold out for a bit longer!

And she listened! The sprinkles stopped within minutes of arriving at River Bend Farm, and we proceeded with business as usual – and Kristen ROCKED it!

Haylee Senior Fitch's Bridge

Haylee’s Senior Session

I am still in awe that this gorgeous girl is already a senior in high school! I headed out to West Groton, MA on a beautiful summer day to take senior portraits for my cousin, Haylee. We started off taking portraits at Fitch’s Bridge, a historical bridge (that received a complete renovation in 2013) where Haylee spends a lot of time with her friends.

Lauren Senior

Lauren’s Senior Session

Where do I even start with this one! Lauren is one of the first students I had when I started teaching, which gave us the unique opportunity to spend a great deal of time together planning out her perfect senior session. We spent weeks (ok, probably months!) discussing ideas for her portraits. Lauren wanted a little bit of everything – nature, a bit of a rustic touch (she LOVES country music), and because dance has been a huge part of her life since she was 3, we absolutely had to feature that passion in her photos. On a gorgeous summer day, we headed out to one of my favorite locations, Riverbend Farm in Uxbridge, MA.

“I loved working with Monique! She had a lot of ideas and did a great job incorporating mine too. She is very professional and upbeat. It was a great first experience with a photographer. My family couldn’t be happier with how my portraits turned out, it was so hard to choose which ones to order!”

After graduation, Lauren is going to school to be a pediatric nurse. She plans on continuing to participate on her dance team and playing club volleyball. Lauren – I will miss you greatly next year, but I can’t wait to see where life takes you!

Connor Senior Session

Connor’s Senior Session

I had the pleasure of capturing Connor’s Class of 2015 senior portraits this past summer. I seem to get a lot more female than male clients, so I was excited to have the opportunity to switch it up a bit!

I first met up with Connor at Blackstone Valley Tech to capture some images of him in his football uniform, which he has played there since he was a Freshman. Then we headed over to Riverbend Farm in Uxbridge, MA to capture more traditional portraits. Connor was totally laid back and full of great smiles, which made it easy to capture some great images!
