Alia's Graduation Portrait Session

“Be bold, be courageous, be your best.”

Gabrielle Giffords

Alia is a bright and cheerful teen getting ready for her first adult adventure, college! Our location is Alia’s home. Her mother has grown this beautiful garden, it truly feels like you are in an enchanted forest! You may even recognize this location from one year ago for her sister’s Senior Session.

Alia is heading to St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota this coming september. Congratulations to you, Alia, as you continue to discover your passions and grow your mind!

The artificial sun flare look was created with my favorite Magnet Mod light modifiers! I used a full CTO and 1/2 CTO gel stacked to create a golden hour light behind my subject.

It is always exciting to hear about our clients endeavors, especially our seniors! Their stories always take us back down memory lane. Alia expressed to us that she loves photography herself and is always taking pictures of her friends! This gave us the opportunity to have some fun with posing.

Senior Sessions get two outfit choices, graduation cap and gown and an outfit of their choice. We love a good personality pic to portray the client’s current interests! Alia loves to spice up her clothes by adding additional designs. You will see her hand crafted denim jacket and her college t-shirt. She loves to create her own look rather than the ones you see in the store!

Our session with Alia was incredible, best of luck to her in college and all future endeavors!
