I was really looking forward to Tom's session because not only is he a handsome young man, but his Mom was my Kindergarten teacher. Who doesn't love their kindergarten teacher!? We met at the White Birch Lodge & If you've never checked it out I highly recommend to do so. It's such a beautiful location, right on Elk Lake, that provides lodging of many different varieties . It's a perfect place to have visiting family & friends take a look at. The WBL was actually one of my & many of my friends first Summer jobs so it was  a lot of fun walking around the grounds again.  We found a lot of great spots  and then headed towards town to get some shots at the famous Dam Beach.  What we were looking forward to most was heading back to the lodge again because Tom was hopping in the water to ski! I threw out the idea that he could wait until later in the Summer to do this when the water warmed up a bit, but he was ready! We waited for the golden hour to strike, jumped on the boat, and Tom went straight in the water! He said, " It was colder than I expected." Pretty sure he was the first one skiing on the lake this Summer. This was my first time taking water sport pictures so I was really excited! We got so many cool shots. Some of my favorites are of Tom's silhouette against the sunset while he's shredding the water. Take a look yourself!
