Donna DeSimone Photography Senior Portrait Session

With senior portrait season for the Class of 2015 quickly approaching, I have decided to create a unique experience for an upcoming senior who may need a little something special. I am donating a senior session this spring and I am so excited to have some amazingly talented people who are on board to help me! Kristina Makris, of Flawless Face and Body, has kindly agreed to donate her services as make-up artist. I also have some exciting new talent who will be offering their services. Rambling House Events, of Nashua, will be donating their creative services to craft a beautifully styled session.

What is a styled session? Well, the ladies of Rambling House will have a pre-session consultation with the senior. They will learn a little bit about her, her likes, and her style. They will then pull together some creative locations, props, staging and whatever else they have up their sleeves to design a setting that is like no other. It may be rustic, vintage, urban, trendy, edgy or traditional. They will work their magic to formulate a fun, beautiful and individualized scene for our photos!

So who will be the recipient of this personalized, pampered session? I'd like to know what YOU think. Do you know a classmate, friend, or neighbor from the Class of 2015 that may be deserving of a special day? Maybe she is someone you don't know very well or you just have not taken the time to reach out to her. Is she is experiencing (or has experienced) a difficult personal situation (medical, financial, emotional)?  Perhaps she has had a tough time dealing with an illness or the loss of a family member. Maybe she just doesn't feel good about herself and needs a little boost.
