Knoxville Senior Photographer – Andrea Larsen Photo bio picture

Andrea Larsen Photo {the blog}

 Welcome to my blog and thank you for looking at my work!  I am a natural light photographer in Maryville & Knoxville TN. I specialize in High School Senior photography.

 I graduated from the University of Tennessee with a BFA in studio art.  My concentration was drawing.  I am an artist.

My love for photography blossomed naturally with my desire to capture the brilliance of my children.  They are delightful little creatures and are used to having a camera in their faces.  

My favorite images to capture are full of motion and emotion.  Which is why I LOVE working with HS seniors.  They are so full of life and excitement.  Seniors will do any crazy thing I ask them to do and I love them for it!

I always have the best time ever on a photo shoot.  Every time!  It's awesome.
