Congrats to this stunning high school graduate! I've known Merosa's family since she was born, so this was such a privilege to be able take her Senior Portraits. This is an exciting time for the whole family, so we were able to get her parents to take a couple pics with her as well :) Here is a preview of our photo session below.

When I initially meet with a client to discuss the details of their photo session such as locations of where they'd like to shoot, I usually get responses like the beach, local park, the high school they currently attend, etc.  When I met with High School Senior, Deidre Alo and her mother, Sharon, our meeting went a little differently. This ambitious High School Senior was set on where she wanted to have her photos taken: Signal Hill, the beach and the cemetery.  Not knowing the situation, I was curious why she had chosen the cemetery as I have never had such a request. She and her mother had shared with me that she had lost her father 2 years ago and that she was adamant about incorporating her father who was very influential in her life and meant everything to her. I can't imagine losing either of my parents at such a young age like Deidre did. I admire her strength and the love that she has for both of her parents. Thank you, Sharon and Deidre for sharing such a tender moment with me. Here is a preview from her photo session.

I am super excited to post photos from this Senior session. I have been craving to shoot in Downtown Los Angeles for a while now, so I was finally able to get my fix. It is always a privilege to be able to capture special times in people's lives. I remember when I was a high school senior many moons ago, I felt like I was on top of the world. Natalia, who is currently a Senior at Dominguez High was prepared for our photo session. From the preparation of the make-up and hair, to the stunning outfits, and lastly the location. I loved everything about this shoot and I am happy to say that we have a cinematic video trailer to give you a glimpse of our shoot that day. Thank you Natalia and everyone who helped to make this shoot as successful as it was!!
