Laguna Canyon Senior Shoot: Kirsten c/o 2014
Kirsten is an athlete. Ask anyone, and they would likely agree and add in that she's a bit of a tom boy too. It's funny though because when I see Kirsten, I see a beautiful California blond who is a little shy (at first) behind the camera, but who really enjoys experimenting with fashion and styling... I think she's an undercover girlie girl! No matter, Kirsten rocked it on her shoot. Because of Kirsten's love of hiking and climbing and…
Crystal Cove Senior Portraits: Ashley c/o 2014
I've said it once, and I'll say it again: trifecta of awesomeness! I LOVE this location. I LOVE this beautiful Senior. I LOVE this light! It was a perfect day. Ashely looked amazing, I mean, she's one of those natural beauties so I've actually never seen her look less then gorgeous, but she just looked especially beautiful after styling with Bree at the Grand. Her request: somewhere with a sensational view; for me, a total win! No problem! I feel…
The Lab Anti-Mall & Canyon Senior Session: Amber, c/o 2014
Isn't Amber just as cute as a button? This girl loves bright colors and fun happy environments with lots of smiles and giggles and playfulness.

I picked up Amber, looking insanely gorgeous, from Bree at the Grand a few days ago. My idea was to start with Amber's…
Balboa Pier Newport Beach Senior Portraits: Rachel c/o 2014
Rachel is probably one of the most undercover girly of all of the girls I've ever worked with. A swimmer and water polo player, she's 100% jock, but that's of course not all that she is. While sporting a black beany, back skinny jeans and an over sized I love NY t-shirt as her first look, Rachel let me know that her favorite color is actually pink (and her bedroom has been that color since she was a kid) and…
Muckenthaler Mansion Fullerton Senior Portraits: Caitlyn c/o 2014
Purple hair streaks, a leather vest, a sequined rainbow top and a guitar. Need I say anything else about this fabulous Senior? That was just a few features of her first outfit and only one aspect of her super cool and playful personality. Caitlyn is the type of girl who is so cool and hip that at first she's almost intimidating... and then she opens her mouth and you see how lovely and sweet and darling she is! I LOVE…
