Both of my websites have been dire need of updating. And, after waiting almost 2 years to finally update my senior website, I did it! And, I must say, I am pretty happy with how it’s turned out. There are a ton of photos that have made it to my blog but really needed to be in my portfolio as well. As the beginning of the Class of 2011 senior portrait season begins, I am proud to kick it off with our new updated portfolio. Please take a peek and let us know what you think! http://www.melissahathaway.com

I’ve been really fortunate to have sessions scheduled right at the opportune time of rain breaks. So, when Kallie and her mom came in for her session last week, I was elated and RUSHING to get out the door to take advantage of the brief dry spell we had on that day. Based on her mom’s comments, I think it will be a surprise (and a special treat) to reveal portraits of Kallie with her hair down! While soccer is life for Kallie, she is absolutely beautiful when she lets go of the soccer girl hair and let’s it down for a little relaxing stroll around the Pearl. College bound on a soccer scholarship, there are many great things ahead of this soon to be 2010 graduate! Kallie, enjoy your sneak peek!

This post is long overdue. Kevin is another recruited individual for the swimming portion of my sports portfolio building. Actual gallery coming some time after the holiday rush. Kevin was a trooper. Although I knew he really wanted to do something in an actual swimming pool, since I had already recently done some swim shots in a pool, I opted for something a little different. It was one of the last few warm and sunny days that we had in Portland and it worked out well. Meagan, my intern from this summer came out and graciously helped out. Although, I’m not sure if she’ll want to help me out again since I basically had her on a 1 hour exercise routine of climbing up a hill 3 times to retrieve stuff from my truck!Thanks Kevin for being a willing volunteer and to Meagan for being my runner! Enjoy your sneak peek Kevin!
