Thanks to one of our Senior Models for playing along with me!

DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE…

When I first met Isabelle it was spring 2006,  she was just getting ready to start her freshman year of high school in the fall.  She had traveled to Indiana with her mom from Switzerland to visit her older sister who was a foreign exchange student not far from our studio  at Avon High School. When her mom called I learned that her youngest daughter, Isabelle, had a dream of becoming a model, walking in runway shows and shooting high fashion work for famous designers.  So why call me? She had told her mom that on thing she would really like to do while here in the states would be to have a photo shoot with a professional photographer.  So they had searched for the best photographer in Indianapolis and had decided I was the lucky one! (blush) I was more than happy to oblige and we booked the session for her.

Upon  arrival to the studio, as we unloaded the car and began to get acquainted I was unaware of the magic that was about to unfold. This seemingly quiet and shy beauty, who definitely did not look at all like the typical 13 year old, had me wondering what she might be like in front of my lens. Once we had talked about what was expected during the session and decided on her outfits…  she was dressed in her first outfit.  We began to shoot I was quickly realizing not only does she dream of being a model but she quite naturally has some skills, as well as the assets to make it work. I can safely say we all enjoyed the time spent talking, laughing and capturing images of Isabelle.  She was truly a joy to work with.

As usual at the end of a shoot, especially one where we have such a great creative connection, I was sad that it had to come to an end and you can see why when you look at a small sample of the images we captured that warm spring day.

Let’s fast forward 4 years…

I have kept  contact with Isabelle through the wonderful world of social media we all have come to know and love as Facebook. Recently I noticed a big change on Isabelle’s profile page! No longer is she listed to be at Downers Grove in Switzerland but as living in Manhattan, NY! WHAT?????? and as a model signed with one of the top modeling agencies in the world, BMG Models!  WOW although not at all surprised. Being a bit of a sleuth (stalker) I quickly find the lovely Isabelle on the cover page of the BMG agency page. NICE! and  with Mercedes Benz Fashion Week descending on New York City this week … I see that Isabelle is walking for Project Runways Olivier Green HOLY COW!!!! as well as starring in the new video release Blue with Big Bang, THE hottest band in Asia! This video is listed as most viewed, most popular, most talked about and with more than 3 MILLION views within 24 hours of it’s release! I have to wonder what other new and exciting things Isabelle is up to!?

One more favorite from my session with Isabelle back in 2006. Seriously, she does not look 13!!!

 

Sooooo. Isabelle Bianchi,
If you are reading this… Congratulations on your success so far and making your dream a reality!  I hope we see you in magazines and fashion shows wearing the latest greatest designers and living it up and having a blast! I wish you much love and happiness!  and if you ever happen to be in Indy, give me a call and let’s shoot again! :) XOXO

INDIANAPOLIS SENIOR PICTURES – WHAT TO WEAR WEDNESDAY

CENTER GROVE 2012 SENIOR HEATHER NAWROCKI- INDIANA SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHY

 

Brebeuf High School- Senior Model for 2012 Tori Scheller!

Tori is one of our Senior Models, she is a student  from Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory High School.  She is a lifeguard and is a hostess at Detour Grill in downtown Carmel. She is a very busy bubbly outgoing person. She likes the idea of studying Broadcast Journalism after high school and hopes to someday be a news reporter. Tori also was assigned the task of being our Fashion IT Girl this year and you will be hearing all kinds of fashion suggestions and tips for making the most of your senior picture experience at Marci and Victor Photography!

I think at certain angles Tori looks a lot like Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, best known for her roles as Kelly Kapowski in Saved by the Bell and as Valerie Malone in Beverly Hills, 90210. Don’t you think?? Christy and I have a long standing habit of doing this…meeting people and saying, “Hey, you kind of look like ________________.” So if you spend any amount of time with us, don’t be surprised if you hear us say, Hey you look like…

As one of our senior models Tori has two sessions. The images show below are a combination of her mini as well as her full senior session. Her session at our Studio Back-lot, sets used are the WILLOW, WAREHOUSE,  RIVER FALLS,  the LOFT, JUNGLE, FASHION wall , the BRIDGE, TREE SWING and more, … all on our studio back-lot property! Once again you can see the variety without having to spend time driving from location to location.

We do an interview with our senior models each year during our interview process. It’s allot of fun, a great way to break the ice and get to know them a little bit. Read on to see some of Tori’s answers.

Hamburgers or Hotdogs:
Tori: Hot Dogs! Especially when they’re New York style loaded up with all the good stuff.

Have you ever licked the back of a CD or DVD to get it to work?
Tori: Ewww! I don’t think I’ve ever even thought about doing that.

Tori: Summer or Winter:

Summer for sure! Even though I love going skiing and bundling up by the fire, I can’t live without the beach and laying poolside and soaking up the sun! Plus being tan is SO much better than being pale.

Ever been in a car wreck:
Tori: Not yet! Even though everyone thinks I’m the accident prone type, I have yet to be in a car wreck….and I’m keeping my fingers crossed!

Most embarrassing moment:
Tori: The most embarrassing thing that has happened to me was when my older brother’s really cute friend accidentally walked in on me when I was changing. Let’s just say it’s a little bit awkward between us now!

Dream car/ job/vacation:
Tori: My dream car is a white Range Rover decked out with all super cool extras. My dream job is to be a news reporter and make my way up to being a TV personality on a show like Entertainment Tonight. My dream vacation is to travel to a small island in the middle of nowhere and learn how to surf and just relax on the beach!

Your wallet: I always have a little bit of spending money, but I am NOT good at saving my money at all. I always find something new that I have to have.

When I grow up I want to_________.
Tori: After college I want to have a job as a lead news reporter, and from there, I want to either travel to a larger city and continue to be a reporter, or host an entertainment show!

If I could change anything about the world…
Tori: I know this is the cheesiest answer of all, and definitely NOT original, but I would make it so there’s peace and not war

Red or Pink?
Tori: I love pink! I’m very girly and the color definitely suits my personality.

Celebrity crush:
Matt Damon! I know it’s kinda random, but he’s gorgeous!

Favorites-
I cannot live without the beach, hot sauce, sushi, and Speedway slushies!Movie: A Cinderella Story is and will ALWAYS be my favorite movie. I know every single line….oh well
Restaurant: Naked Chopstix! If you haven’t been there you have to go! Try the Crunch Munch and the Playboy roll…you’ll LOVE them
Drink: Arnold Palmer! Only 99 cents!
Magazine: COSMO! It always has the best health and beauty articles and has really good fashion spreads too
Way to relax: When I’m really stressed, I love going to the gym and turning my iPod all the way up and then just sitting in the sauna. It calms me down so much and gets my mind off of everything!!
Place: I love North Carolina! Ever since I was born my family rents a house on the beach with some friends from Ohio and some of my favorite memories have been made there!
Store: Urban Outfitters! The thing I love about Urban is that there isn’t one close to Indy besides Bloomington and Chicago, so when you’re wearing some of their clothes, it’s likely that nobody else will have it, and their clothes are super cute!
Boy: Chase Crawford…but when he’s playing Nate on Gossip Girl
Performer: Dave Matthews Band! They are the BEST performers and by far the best concert of the summer
Outfit: Skinny jeans and a really cute tank are always a great choice. You can wear it day and night and it’s suitable for basically anyyyy occasion.
Makeup: I always have to have mascara and eyeliner. I love to make my eyes pop, and these do the trick!
Photographers: MARCI AND VICTOR!!!! Best photographers EVER (trick question!)
