Celebrating a milestone
Best Senior Photographer Lancaster, California
I met with Ava and her parents to design her senior photography shoot. She mentioned that she played basketball and had a pink guitar. They also mentioned a pair of sunglasses that had special meaning to them.
We met first in the studio for the traditional portraits with cap and gown and black V-drape, along with a few of the basketball uniform.
Then we headed to the Prime Desert Woodland Preserve.
Doesn’t she look like Taylor Swift in some of the photos with the pink guitar?
The last portrait I did of her was one of my all time favorites, looking off to the future.
I strive to make the senior portraits memorable for each client. Looking for different spots in a location, tailored to just that person.
Best of luck Ava, I know you’ll do great things!

5 Tips to start planning for your senior session.
You might be planning your senior portrait session and think you’ve thought of everything.
Food for thought.
Do you want a letter jacket in your photos?
Do you have it or do you need to order it?
It can take weeks to just get the jacket, and that’s not even taking into consideration, getting the patches sewn on it.

What about a class ring? You might already have that, but put it on the list to bring with you. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll ask a senior if they have a class ring and they say “Yes, at home”. That is disappointing!
Want to use a sports jersey? Some schools require that you get permission ahead of time, so you can reserve it and return it.
Plan out your haircut and color ahead of time. It can take weeks just to get an appointment.
Start going through your closet. See what you already have that you love and is really you. Then shop as needed to fill in the gaps

Remember when you were a kid and the summers seemed to stretch out forever?
Summer is here, and Senior sessions are booking! Don’t let time get away from you, get in touch to get on my schedule!
From warm summer mornings through golden sunsets, summer is the perfect time to get Senior photos done. There’s so much daylight to take advantage of!
I’ll let you in on a little secret: Once the Senior gets back in school, their schedule becomes incredibly hectic. Between clubs, sports, and just the study workload, they suddenly have very little time to get in for their senior session.
Take the stress off yourself and start planning for a summer session, so you do not have to worry about rescheduling.
So, let’s get those photos done so you can enjoy your summer! Contact me now to book your preferred session time.
If your senior really wants fall photos instead, I get it. But don’t wait to contact me to schedule!
Get the ball rolling with either a free, no obligation portrait consultation or go ahead and get the session booked and on the calendar now.

Senior Photos are a great way to show all your interests as well as illustrating your future path. Thomas is an explorer and wants to be a forest firefighter.
I thought it would really cool to show him in his turnouts in a creative way. We tried lots of different poses and I sought to illustrate the future Thomas is what I pictured to be his enviornment. It was great fun, and I didn’t even have to set anything on fire!

Senior Portrait
Senior Portraits “at last”
As a “senior, Charlien was very excited to have her senior portraits taken, at last. We got a big kick out of that! For what ever reason, she had not had them take in high school, but better late than never. Together we discussed what she was looking for. She wanted to incorporate a cape that her Aunt had given her. Hair and makeup were done by Tessa at Bella West Salon. She did a fantastic job and Charlien had “fake” eyelashes for the first time ever. The topping to it all for me was photographing her dog, Seely. She was a real sweetheart and one of the best trained dogs I have ever photographed (definitely easier than my own!). So you see, senior portraits can happen at any time, and it is never too late.

Senior Photography
This is an example of senior portraits taken in the studio. We have the black v drape and the cap and gown for your portraits. It is fun to show off the personality of the senior. I photographed Kirsten when she was a little girl and now to see her blossoming into a beautiful young lady was amazing!
The last image shows a collage that we can create to showcase your portraits. We offer this in all of our product lines,not just senior photography; such as families, children, pets, glamour, you name it. If you dream it, we can build it!

Location Photo shoots
If you are looking for something different, try a location photo shoots. Look no further than the BLVD in downtown Lancaster, CA. Here are two senior photo shoots that we did with very different looks. I love the look of a dressy styling with an urban background. Both seniors had completely different looks due to their clothing, and they was they posed as well as the lighting. Whether you want dramatic lighting or more natural we can do it! The two sessions were styled differently as Philip is into skate boarding, modeling and acting. Alexis is both a girly girl and an athlete so we were able to accomplish both!

Senior Portrait Extreme Session
Senior Portraits Extreme Session includes an on-location of your choosing as well as in- studio portraits. We traipsed out to the forest and had a blast! When you go outdoors for a photo shoot, anything can happen, from the weather and wind to little critters. No bugs, but possible poison ivy. Ashley was game for anything, so that made this so much fun. When you go outdoors for a photo shoot, anything can happen, from the weather and wind to little critters. Then about a week , later we met here at the studio, and did lots of fun things with all her personal interests – from pageants to sports! Loads of fun, covering everything from candid senior portraits to the more formal graduation photography style.

Senior Photography in Lancaster/Palmdale CA
Valerie is a recent graduate. She was a great subject and up for anything. Her friends commented that she looked like a model during the session, and she really did. Her personality really comes through in these images. We always suggest a consultation with our clients before their senior portraits. We discussed clothing and made some suggestions. Valerie brought in her dress that she would wear to graduation. We scheduled her session to allow her time to do her hair and makeup and the results were stunning.
If you are interested in planning a session, please call us at 661-942-4813.

Senior Portraits hair makeup
Tristen is a high school senior, graduating from Rosamond High School, Class of 2014. She was great to begin with, but the makeup artist and hair stylist really brought out her natural beauty. I had photographed her sister a couple of years ago, and now it was Tristen’s turn to shine!
We had so much fun working with her and gettting her to “smize” with her eyes (those beautiful baby blues!). We offer hair and makeup styling not just for high school senior portraits, but also for glamour and boudoir portraits, family portraits, glamour portraits, pretty much for whatever session that you would like a little more help with hair and makeup styling.
Once again, thanks Tristen for giving us the opportunity to photograph you for this milestone in your life.

In the future, she’d like to be the one who helps them get back in actions. She hopes to study physiotherapy in colleges with her sights set on a career in sports medicine. Jazmin has a 3.98 grade-point averageis taking AP history and AP and composition. “Jazmin has an outstanding work ethic and a sweet spirit”, Casey Haynes of Bethel Christian said. Jazmin has volunteered at a surgical center and worked with Project Angel Food, which makes food for the sick. “knowing that you did a good deed helping out somebody who is really sick and providing food for them was really great,” she said. “The surgical institute was a really good experience,” she added ,”It really opened doors to seeings a lot of new things that maybe other students wouldn’t have access to. It was great working with doctors and getting to sit in on some surgeries and see what really goes on in their life.” Congratulations to Jazmin – Future Leader.

Our second star student is Catherine, a senior at Paraclete. “When other kids said they wanted to be a teach or a firefighter, Catherine said she was interested in finding a cure for cancer. That desire was solidified when her younger brother, Randy, developed health problems after he was born more than three years ago.”the medical field saved his life,”she said. Now “he’s a perfectly normal 3 1/2 year old, running around getting into trouble.” The Paraclete senior has played volleyball since she was 11 years old, andshe was named the Delphic League Most Valuable Player and was named to the all-CIF team this past season for Paraclete. Catherine, who has a 4.3 grade point average, is so focused on her goals that this year she took calculus and physics as her electives. Catherine also volunteers at the Los Angels County Department of Children and Family Services. Her mother says that”Catherine is very driven and tries to excel at everything she does. She has been self-driven since a young age and has always been kindhearted and willing to help others around her. She is not only smart but also kindhearted. She never leaves a task uncompleted.” Congratulations to Catherine – A Future Leader of the Antelope Valley.
