I met her my freshman year when she was a sophomore. We were in the same Bible Study, and I had THE BIGGEST friend-crush on her, and thought she was THE coolest girl around. The next year, I got to know her better and found out that not only was she THE coolest girl around, but she was super involved on campus and balanced her life like a superstar. Bottom line…… I wanted to be this girl.

Yesterday, I got to hangout with this girl: the beautiful Nikki Odderstol. She is graduating this year and wanted senior portraits taken just wanted to get some pictures taken around campus, and I was more than happy to be her photographer!! (She doesn’t like to speak of graduation, and she calls herself “señor Nikki” to make light of her senior status.)

Nikki, thanks for making my afternoon so fun! You are GORGEOUS, and were so easy to photograph. Thanks for making me laugh continually throughout the shoot. You’re wonderful!!

Enjoy some of my favorites!
