Paige | Class of 2020
I met up with Paige in Portland for her senior photos at the beginning of November. It had started to get chilly for the year with unpredictable weather, so we had to be really flexible with mother nature! We made it work though and had a lot of fun doing it! Here are a few of my favorites of Paige from her session along with a little more about her!
“My favorite parts of the photo session would include the location of where the photos were taken, the ability for me to express myself in a kind atmosphere and getting to be part of an experience and what goes into each session.”
RP: Who is the person you most look up to and why?
Paige: Generally, the people that I tend to look up to would include those who have inspired me by their own stories and achievements. Specifically speaking, I would say that my dad would be an example of that.
RP: You have a twin sister, what would you say is your biggest similarity and difference with her?
Paige: The main similarities between my twin sister and I would include our love of food, music and clothing. On the other hand, I would say that we differ in the fact that we have completely different personalities and interests. She is more driven and organized than I am, but she also appreciates having a sense of independence. In comparison, I would say that I tend to be more stubborn than her and that I have a less serious side that comes with a little sense of humor.
Thank you, Paige, for letting me capture you during your senior year!

Also fishing helped give me the close friends that I have now because when I first moved here from North Carolina, it was something that I had in common and things I could do with them.
Thank you, Brice for inviting me to do your senior pictures!
