West Michigan Senior Photographer // More Than A Face – Alayna!

Alayna is a 2015 senior at  Hudsonville High School.  From the second she arrived to the shoot location…..she had me laughing.  Having a sense of humor is so valuable and will serve her well in the years to come.  When Alayna showed me that she brought along her dad’s varsity jacket from high school, I instantly became more excited!  The perfect look that we were going for ….. even in the perfect color!

What are some of your hobbies outside of school?

When I’m not at school I love to have dance parties with my sister and hangout with my friends. I also play lacrosse in the spring and will be captain this coming season!

Everyone is unique in some way…what makes you unique?

Something that makes me different is that I don’t need fancy clothes or lots of make up for me to feel happy. Being with my friends and family is all I need.

Do you think there is anything that makes high school difficult these days?

I think in high school it’s really hard to stay true to yourself. Everyone wants to wear the name brand clothes and have the perfect hair color or lipgloss. When in reality, none of that matters. Your inner beauty is what counts and always remember that!

How has your experience with MTAF been so far?

The MTAF program is an amazing thing!! It’s a great way to get the word out to people (especially teenage girls) that what’s inside, you or your personality, is what counts.
