Capturing Sasha: A Breathtakingly Windy & Beautiful Fall Senior Session

A Little Wind Never Hurt

Meet Sasha Nichols from Rootstown High School! We were absolutely blown away by her senior session—both figuratively and literally, thanks to the intense wind that day. But Sasha handled it like a pro, turning the breeze into her personal wind machine and looking like a true model with her hair effortlessly flowing. Beyond her natural confidence in front of the camera, Sasha is an all-around powerhouse. She juggles a packed schedule filled with sports, excelling in soccer, cheer, basketball, and track. No matter what she takes on, she gives it her all—and it definitely showed during her session!

Leaving a Legacy at Rootstown High School

Sasha’s incredible character and integrity were recognized by her classmates when she was crowned Homecoming Queen—an honor that speaks volumes. Being chosen by your peers to represent them is no small feat—it’s a reflection of the respect and admiration she’s earned through her kindness, grace, and genuine spirit. What makes this moment even more special is the legacy she carries on. The Nichols family has left a remarkable mark at Rootstown High School, as both of her sisters, Delta and Marina, were also crowned homecoming queen of their classes. Three sisters, three crowns—a true testament to the values of kindness, leadership, and authenticity that clearly run in their family.

Sasha shared that her senior year has been full of valuable life lessons—ones she’ll carry with her for years to come. Along with those lessons have come countless unforgettable memories with her best friends, making this year truly special.

Unfortunately, during Sasha’s senior basketball season, she suffered an ankle sprain, forcing her to sit the season out. But that didn’t stop her from being the ultimate teammate! She cheered her girls on from the sidelines and even had the chance to support them at the state championship game, making history for their school. Sasha embodies what it means to be a dedicated teammate and loyal friend. She lifts others up, shows unwavering support, and gives her all in everything she does—and that’s just one of the many things we admire about her!

Beauty, Kindness, and Grace Sasha is the kind of senior we absolutely love photographing—and it’s not just because she’s stunning (though she certainly is!). What truly makes Sasha special is her kindness, friendship, and team spirit. She’s the type of person who lifts others up, goes with the flow, and embraces every moment with grace. A perfect example? The windstorm during her senior session! While most would have been discouraged by the gusts tossing their hair in every direction, Sasha took it all in stride, turning the challenge into magic—and the results were absolutely breathtaking.

The Perfect Location for Senior Photos

A huge thank you to Green Clover Farm in Mantua for providing such a beautiful setting for Sasha’s fall session! Although it’s technically a wedding venue, it is one of our favorite locations for senior pictures, and we are so grateful they share it with us. If you’re looking for a stunning, intimate wedding venue, we can’t recommend them enough!

Stepping into the Future with Confidence and Poise Sasha, we feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to get to know you and capture your stunning senior photos! Despite the less-than-ideal weather, we created some truly breathtaking images—some of the most perfect senior fall portraits, if we do say so ourselves. We’re also absolutely obsessed with the heirloom products that your family ordered and hope you love them just as much as we do!

Full-Circle Moment

Oh, did we mention that we also had the honor of photographing Sasha’s older sister, Marina? Be sure to check out her blog too! We absolutely love when siblings of past seniors come back to us for their own sessions—it’s such a special full-circle moment that makes our hearts so happy. Capturing these milestones and preserving timeless memories for families is why we do what we do.

Oh, and Delta—we’re coming for you next! We can’t wait to get you in front of our lens soon for a “Life Lately” session. It’s time to capture this chapter of your life, too, and give your parents even more beautiful memories to cherish. 💙
