High School Senior Photos – Oceanside, CA

High school senior portraits in Oceanside, CA!  This desert girl from Arizona drove out to the beaches of California to have her senior pics taken.  It might have been just the beach that she wanted, but it probably had something to do with the fact that she knows this great photographer (me!) and thought that would be a winning combination.  We met up at Oceanside Harbor early on Saturday morning and started shooting!  Major thanks to Amy for being my extra hands on this shoot.  Could not have done it without you!

First picture of the day and it couldn’t be better!  We still had a little bit of cloud covering which always helps!

A great smile!  And she has the beach in the picture!  :)

A couple photos with her big brother who has served our country well for many years in the desert.

One of my favorite photos from the shoot…LOVE IT!!!  When I heard that she wanted to take some photos with her Army shirt this idea immediately popped into my mind.  :)  Enjoy the last year of high school before heading off to wear green camo for a while!

Last chance for this year!!!

This is just a quick note to let you know that I only have two dates available for photo sessions in Orange County for the remainder of the year.  Give me a call if you are planning on a session this year.

And what would be a blog post without a photo!  This high school senior came out from Arizona to have me take her photos.  I think a lot of it had to do with the beach, which is not readily available in Arizona, but nonetheless, she drove a long way to have me take her pictures.  And she rocked the shoot!

Looking back – favs of 2010 – Orange County and Sacramento Family and Life photographer

2010 was a great year with lots of fun photographs of beautiful people!  A little bit of everything with senior pictures, maternity session, weddings, birthday parties, and family photos.  While I am starting to enjoy location scouting a little bit more, I still have a deep love for the perfect expression no matter the location.  For me, it is all about capturing life as it is happening.  Here are some of my favorites from the past year.  I’d love to know what you think, so drop me an email or leave a comment on the blog.

Senior Awesomeness!

It is not everyday that I get to photograph a high school senior, nor is it something that I take lightly.  A senior is at the top of their game with the world in front of them.  They want something amazing out of life and they are going for it!  Here’s to you Naamah!  The world is yours and I can’t wait to see what you do with it!
