Sindy Class of 2014 | Goodhart Photography Studio Portraits

Sindy is a very creative rising senior at Dominion High School in Potomac Falls, Virginia. When I heard archery was one of her hobbies, I knew exactly what I wanted to use for a background - my "Girl on Fire" backdrop...

 

 Then I found out she is also a dress designer! She made this wonderful dress out of a Harry Potter book!  Isn't it amazing?

 

 A lot of my senior girls like to bring their prom dresses, and Sindy was no exception! She rocked this beautiful trumpet flare red dress.

 

 And, just for fun....

BREATHTAKING CLASS OF 2013 HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR | Goodhart Photography, NoVA Senior Portrait Artist

What an amazing shoot with this gorgeous girl!  We spent a morning in studio at at one of Loudoun County's gorgeous public parks, Claude Moore. She's graduating this year, Class of 2013, and I seriously think she should consider modeling but she says that's not in her future.
 She rocked a lot of different expressions and moods.  I think this one is particularly beautiful.

 
Love her fashion sense too, that pop of pink on her wrist from Patricia Barta Jewelry is fantastic.



Something a little "Cover Girl".....

 
Something a little fun....


 Something a little leopard....

And just plain beautiful....

ANOTHER STUNNING SENIOR | Goodhart Photography, Northern Virginia Senior Portraits

This knockout is a rising Dominion High School senior and one of my senior models.   I love her thick, curly hair, and her impeccable fashion sense. 



Here we're using glamour lighting -- she could be a cover girl!  The insanely beautiful jewelry she is wearing is designed by a local jewelry maker in Great Falls, Patricia Barta.  



More Barta bling around her neck in the pictures below:  

GORGEOUS DOMINION HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR| Goodhart Photography, Northern Virginia Senior Pictures

Soon it will warm up and I'll be doing senior portrait shoots all around northern Virginia!  But for now, I am still photographing seniors in my Potomac Falls studio.   I love the control you have with studio lighting, you can get a kicker light exactly where you want it instead of trying to position a senior a certain way relative to the sun.  



This gorgeous girl has a great sense of fun and style!







But she can give you an exquisite, quiet mood as well.



She's a talented soccer player, so we needed a few soccer pictures too.



And, my parting shot, the ring-light!!

INTRODUCING CLASS OF 2014 SENIOR MODEL HOLLY! | Goodhart Photography, Northern Virginia Senior Portrait Artist

Introducing Holly, Class of 2014.   I've had the good fortune to know her for a few years -- in fact, years ago her family was one of my portfolio building families at a gorgeous park here in Loudoun County.

Anyway, she's grown even more beautiful, both inside and out.  She's intelligent, loves soccer and music, and is very photogenic, as these pictures prove:

FAMILY MEMORIES | Goodhart Photography, Northern Virginia Senior Portrait Artist

LOVE this family.   I met Katie years ago when we were in Sterling Playmakers "The King and I"  together.  Then she babysat for my kids, modeled for me, and helped me organize my home and photography studio.   I photographed her senior pictures a few years ago (she's been featured on this blog many times) and recently was lucky enough to photograph her amazing family at Claude Moore park in Sterling.

 This is one nuclear family, and two sets of grandparents.

Everyone is so good natured and happy, and it all starts here, with loving, faith-filled parents.

 Having such a large family enables all of these special connections between different siblings to develop. Here are a few more:

And for my parting shot:

FABULOUS AT FORTY | Goodhart Photography, Northern Virginia Glamour Portrait Artist

 I suppose the casual reader of my blog could be forgiven for thinking I only photograph gorgeous high school seniors attending northern Virginia schools. But I'm a little more versatile than that! Moms often bring their children of all ages to me to photograph, but sometimes they treat themselves to a glamour portrait session to capture their beauty for posterity, or perhaps for a loved one. With Valentines Day just around the corner, I thought it was a great time to feature my latest fabulous at 40 mom of 4.


 I think the only word for this picture is fierce, right? Do you want to mess with her?

And this picture is amazing, she looks like a powerful business executive, and yet she is completely feminine.



And one of my favorites!   Such serenity and wisdom in her face.

You too can have beautiful portraits! Whether you are a spring chicken of 30, a fabulous 40, a fantastic 50 or beyond, it's not too late to treat yourself to a really special night and release your inner diva.  Give me a call today -- 703. 431. 3508!

 If you really want to be pampered, I can have a truly talented makeup artist, Meredith Ehler of Potomac Falls, Virginia on hand to highlight your natural radiance and hide any signs of the natural exhaustion I think all mothers have.
