San Jose High School Senior Pictures, Lexi

It was so exciting to do my beautiful niece's High School Senior Pictures!  We had 1 day to do them and it was the first day of A LOT of rain in California.  That morning I sat with my mother-in-law watching the weather as rivers got bigger, roads were being washed out and the ground was just getting soggy.  And all I could think was "yes!  I finally get to use umbrellas in the rain and not just because I love them."  Not everyone was as excited as I was, but I knew it was doable.  Even if it was a little cold.  I love all the different looks we got!  I don't think we would have done so many different places if it hadn't been raining!  It was a total score for me!







 Lexi is in community and high school theater, she has performed in this building.  It was pretty cool to be there and hear about all her upcoming theater adventures!
 We went into the Westin to get away from the cold and rain.  Usually hotels are helpful and willing to have me there - as long as I stay out of the way of guests and staff.  They were not as accommodating, but luckily they let us stay (I begged and pleaded a little!  Or a whole lot...  But we got to stay!)  I love these images!  They were so much fun!  And what a beautiful room!  It was fantastic!  I couldn't use flash, one of my begging points, and there were some times I really needed just a little bit more light, but it all worked out.

 I love this one!




 I love these images outside!





 Here is a little video of Lexi skipping in the rain!  It is so cute!

Sage's Senior Pictures, Boulder

 When I first showed up for Sage’s senior session, I just knew it was going to be something special. She was a little shy at first, but right away I could tell what a sweet and genuine young lady she is. And once she warmed up, she started to shine—it was such a joy to capture! The locations she chose were absolutely perfect, and they fit her so well. And then, as if the day knew how amazing Sage is, the sun came out just for her. It had been hiding behind the clouds for quite a while, but suddenly it burst through, lighting up her gorgeous hair and giving everything this beautiful, glowy warmth. It honestly felt magical, and I couldn’t have been more excited. Photographing Sage was such an honor. She’s kind, authentic, and absolutely radiant—I just adored every moment of her session! She has the greatest smile! I love these in the water!  It was such a beautiful day! I love this one!  It is just magical! Her and her brother are so cute! I love these in the grasses!...

Avery Senior Pictures, Denver Botanic Gardens

 Avery is one of my incredible Senior Influencers, and she totally rocked her session! From the very beginning, she was ready to go!  Every pose I put her in, she made look amazing — it made photographing her an absolute joy. We started at the Denver Botanic Gardens, which was the perfect backdrop for her session. Everywhere we turned there were stunning plants, colorful flowers, and hidden little corners. Avery looked so natural — it was like the gardens were showing off just for her! After exploring the gardens, we headed over to Cheesman Park to slow things down a bit. The vibe there was more relaxed, with gorgeous light. It gave us the perfect mix of elegance and laid-back charm, and Avery’s personality shone through every single shot.   This session was such a fun combination of vibrant and chill, and Avery made it all look effortless. I can’t wait to share more from her senior year as one of my Influencers—she’s truly a star in front of the camera! I just l...

Elli, Senior Pictures

  I was so excited for this session — my very first full Senior Session! These types of sessions are always my favorite!   It means I am getting back to work and there is always something so special about capturing a person right on the edge of everything new. And with Elli, I knew it was going to be a great one. From the moment we started planning, her energy and excitement made it clear: this was going to be one for the books. And it was — even with the weather throwing us a little curveball. About halfway through the session, the skies opened up and we had to pause for a solid 45 minutes. But honestly? Even that didn’t take away from how amazing the day was. The rain gave us a chance to slow down, laugh, and reset — and when we got going again, everything felt a little more magical - and the lighting post-rain? Gorgeous!   I was hoping for a rainbow, but sadly we missed that! Elli is such a joy to be around. She’s incredibly sweet, the kind of person who makes y...
