Senior Photo Session at The Gathering Place in Tulsa, OK

Oh how I loved my time at The Gathering Place! See a favorite sneak peek of a senior photo session in Tulsa, OK.

Did I jump at the chance to make a quick trip to Tulsa to meet up with some friends for senior photos? You bet I did, and I'd jump to do it all over again. I go way back with some great friends in Tulsa, and we met up to do not one but two sessions on the same night this week. We met at The Gathering Place, and it was the perfect setting. Everywhere you look there's a perfect backdrop for photos, and we took advantage of it. We found so many perfect spots in the park, from green foliage to waterfalls, to the playground, there's so much to choose from.


Aside from the amazing location, I was so thrilled to spend time with these families. This senior is Karsten, and I've known his family since he was born! I just can't believe that he's now a senior; I was so honored to take his senior photos. I had so much fun seeing him in front of the camera all evening, and he was the best sport about doing all the things we asked. I think he even had some fun. I loved both his dressed up and more casual looks; I think it's great when seniors incorporate both in their photos. Thanks Karsten for hanging out and letting me be a small part of senior year.


I have way too many favorites, but here are a few for now:
