Jesse moved in next door quite a few years ago and has been in and out of my house with my kids innumerable times! This made her shoot just a little more special and fun. I’ve been looking forward to her grad year for ages and we made a day of it!

We started off at the park, changed casual wear for some fun cap & gown shots, pulled her sister in for some shots, hit a graffiti wall downtown, back to her house for some more there and then moved into the studio for more formal cap & gown portraits. We may or may not have worked that girl for 6 hours… but she did get a few breaks I swear!

It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish and I love what we created!  Keeping our secret bus stop shoot under wraps was killing me but I managed to hold it in until their reveal and ordering appointment. It was so much fun surprising her parents with those portraits! I was thrilled that they loved them as much as we did (1 album spread: done!)
