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 that... a bit of mystery! Caitlyn is a soccer girl. The real kind.. you know, the kind being scouted for college. She's creative, smart, disciplined, and hard working and just a lovely young woman with fantastic character, and oh so charming. Our day began at the Grand, and Caitlyn had had her purple locks redone a day or two before so that they would really pop for me (LOVE!). After makeup and hair, we headed straight over to the Muckenthaler Mansion. The Muck is a popular venue for weddings and parties of all types, but my very favorite part about the place is its outdoor stage! Since Caitlyn had mentioned wanting to do some shots with her guitar, I thought it would be absolutely fabulous to put her on a stage with an empty audience... and it was... SO awesome. Afterward, we explored the grounds, laughing a lot along the way and chit-chatting about all sorts of things. I'd really tried to choose a few Fullerton spots that helped Caitlin show the very different aspects of her personality, so our final spot was over near the Fullerton Sports Park. We pulled out Caitlin's autographed soccer ball and just messed around in the grasses with the absolutely sensational afternoon light. Caitlin is SUCH a fun and beautiful young woman and it was a true joy to be a part of her Senior year!!

Thanks so much to Katy for her help at our Muck Shoot and of course to Bree for her gorgeous styling talent!! ENJOY!!!
