When Tayla and I first starting talking about her senior photo shoot I knew she wanted to go out of town and I knew it would be something completely new and special. Being a competitive hip hop dancer I was excited to see what ideas Tayla would come up with and I knew it had to be about dance and her cool vibe style! I was excited to get to spend the day with her and her Mom in San Francisco. It was a highly anticipated trip as we had to reschedule several times. The first time Tayla had gotten very sick and following that we got caught up in the mess of the PG&E outages. There was no way any of us wanted to go into the city when there was no power! Finally we got a day free to go only to have a 90% chance of rain...and rain it did! But we were able to get Tayla's shots in front of the Golden Gate bridge before it got too stormy. Here's what Tayla had to say about her senior model shoot and this year's experience. Tayla's hair and makeup by Beauty by Kelsey Lane.

Jenn: Tayla what location did you choose for your senior shoot?

Tayla: San Francisco

Jenn: Why did you choose this location? What inspired you or was important about it to you?

Tayla: It reminds me of my home in Australia in some ways and I love being by the beach. The feeling of the city fits me well. 

Jenn: Where did you get your clothes for the shoot?

Tayla: I honestly just wore my own clothes I already had in my closet, oh and my sister's. lol I also got some pieces from American Eagle.

Jenn: What is your favorite memory of your senior shoot day?

Tayla: It was raining all day! I was glad I chose to go to the aquarium, it was inside and amazing! Oh, and we bought donuts on Pier 39 and had to run back to the car in the pouring rain! 

Jenn: What advice would you give to the class of 2021? 

Tayla: My advice would be to not take any part of high school for granted because everything goes by super fast especially senior year. (and not to sound cheesy) but cherish the big moments!

Jenn: Thinking back to this senior year BEFORE Covid19 hit, what is your favorite memory?

Tayla: My dance competitions were my favorite, and the night rally during homecoming week. 

Jenn: At this moment in time what are you most grateful for?

Tayla: My family, friends and my dance family!

Jenn: Who's your favorite Disney character?

Tayla: Donald Duck!

Jenn: Favorite Disneyland snack?

Tayla: Churros!

Jenn: What are you currently watching to occupy your time at home?

Tayla: Netflix, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime 

Jenn: When the quarantine is lifted and we are able to go back to our regular life routine what are you going to do first?

Tayla: Go to DANCE!
