POP-UP SESSION – Senior Portrait Mini Sessions

Let’s celebrate your son or daughter’s upcoming graduation with a cool senior photo in Newport Beach. Perfect for grad announcements and a great time to document a milestone before they head off to college! We will be offering packages with digital files, albums, and announcements/party invites. Let’s capture your senior’s expression, style, and personality! This mini session is happening on one day only, don’t miss out!

Newport Beach Senior Portrait Mini Sessions – Class of 2018

Join us on April 14, 2018 for Senior Portrait Mini Sessions! We will have photographers at two locations this year (The Newport Beach Pier & Back Bay). The Newport Pier location will give your grad the choice of a beach portrait, or more or a vintage/urban look in the back alleys. The Newport Beach Back Bay has more of a nature/rustic look. Both locations are gorgeous but we understand every senior has their own unique style.

Simple Sophistication

We are on Instagram
Have you ever noticed how the most meaningful moments don’t need much at all?
The power was out in the church during this baptism, which made everything feel quieter and more intentional. Just family, faith, and a moment that truly mattered. Sometimes simplicity has a way of stripping things back to what is most important.
Who says Christmas photos have to be serious?

This family showed up in red, brought the energy, and leaned fully into the fun. The funny poses, the laughs, and the personalities are exactly what made this session feel so them. These are the photos you smile at every time you walk by them.
Do your headshots actually feel like you?

This one was done at Balboa in the fog, and honestly, it worked perfectly. Soft light, calm energy, and nothing distracting. A great reminder that headshots do not have to be stiff or overly polished to feel professional.
2025 looked like:
• 152 sessions
• New faces, familiar faces
• More gratitude than I can fit here
This work continues to surprise me. I’m thankful for the trust, the connection, and the moments I was honored to document this year. If you were part of it, thank you.
Do you ever realize how much changes in just one year?

This was their session from last year, and looking back at these candid moments is such a reminder of why yearly photos matter. You don’t notice the little changes day to day, but you feel them when you see them like this.
