I love photographing high school seniors. Maddie, her mom and I caught up with each other at the gardens on campus in West Seattle and found the perfect backdrops for her photos. Mom thought it was great working outdoors especially since Maddie is more of an outdoorsey kinda gal and into sports like volleyball. Here are some of my favorites. Don’t forget – it’s never too late or too early for senior pics!

Time for senior portraits
Mom pulled up to the studio last Sunday and said “Camden’s in the car, got time?” So I grabbed a camera and we headed off to the community college and roamed the garden there. Looks like we were at five different locations. Got done quickly and Camden was able to finish his day doing things HE really wanted to do:)
Ballet Princess
I love it when clients are willing to “play” during their photo shoot no matter how old! Megan is a dancer with PNB so when mom called wanting her senior photos I couldn’t help but suggest she bring her favorite tutu and shoot in unusual places. With grace and style we strolled along Lincoln Park with a string of little girls giggling behind us. We all had fun. Here’s a peek at some of her images:
Camara
Senior girls are so much fun. We managed to create three different looks out of one outfit. Camara had a tight schedule so we roamed the arboretum. Even though the skies were overcast and it was a little chilly we got some great images for her senior photos. It’s Seattle, what can we say…other than look at those beautiful eyes!
Clara
The Merlino family decided to have a family portrait taken at the same time as we did Clara’s senior photos. While the morning was gray and rainy the afternoon turned out beautiful as we headed over to the arboretum at SSCC. An easy-going group, we worked quickly to catch as much late afternoon sun as possible. Here’s a peek at Clara’s senior photos.
“94”
For some reason guys tend to not want to have senior photos taken. So Rian’s mom was getting the family together for a long overdue family photo and we snuck in those senior photos of Rian. Rian goes by the nickname “94”; you’ll have to ask him how that all came about! Everyone gathered at the arboretum where we had a fun time walking the grounds.
Hannah
It was a pleasure to offer Hannah a fun time at the arboretum. We wandered the area and found great locations that provided the perfect backdrop for Hannah’s senior portraits. Don’t ya just love those beautiful eyes! Be sure and watch her video collage.
Barefootin’ with Amulya
Amulya said she’d been waiting four years to have her senior photos taken and enjoyed her session just as much as I did. Her smile was contagious as romped through the Arboretum at West Seattle Community College (where her mom is a teacher!) We talked about her love of country music (mine too!) so I hope y’all enjoy this video montage with a country flair. Barefootin’ with Amulya (Click here).
Claudia’s Senior session
Claudia was a delightful subject. Having gone to modeling school she was a dream in front of the camera. We headed over to the Arboretum at South Seattle Community College. We had plenty of backgrounds to choose from and she had plenty of outfits to change into!

Alayna’s Senior Pics
It’s always a pleasure working with clients over again. I photographed Alayna’s sister a couple years ago and now it’s her turn to graduate. We ventured into different parts of Lincoln Park and then onto Lowman Beach for some fun images. Enjoy this video collage of our shoot.
