Austin - 2026 Senior Model Team - Individual Session
If you've been following along this year, you already know Austin — he's been part of my model team, showing up and showing out all season long. So when it came time for his individual senior session, I already knew it was going to be a great time. What I didn't know was just how entertaining the afternoon would turn out to be.
We headed out to Allen Station Park for Austin's shoot, and right away it delivered. The park has this incredible mix of open fields, wooded paths, and waterways that make it one of my favorite spots for senior guys — it feels natural without being too polished, which is exactly the energy Austin brings.
Austin was a total natural in front of the camera — relaxed, genuine, and completely himself.
Having already worked with him throughout the year on model team, there's a comfort level that just makes everything flow. We weren't starting from scratch with poses or expressions — Austin already knew how to work it, and it showed in every frame.
But let's talk about the real highlight of the day. At some point, not one — but two soccer balls ended up in the water. I won't place any blame (Austin). And because moms are genuinely the unsung heroes of every senior session, his mom absolutely came through and fished both of them out without a second thought. Honestly, she deserves a gold medal. The best part? We barely missed a beat, laughed it off, and kept shooting like the pros we are.
That's the thing about senior sessions — the unexpected moments are always the ones you remember. The outtakes, the laughs, the "did that really just happen?" stories that get told for years. Austin's session had all of it, and I couldn't love these images more.
Austin, it has been such a joy watching you come into your own this year on model team. You brought great energy every single time, and your individual session was the perfect way to close out the year. Here's to your senior year — go make it everything. 🎓
