This is Gabby!

Gabby and her family vacationed here in the summer and contacted me to shoot some senior portraits while they were in SoCal. Every year, I get a few out of state seniors who want to shoot here and it is SO fun meeting and working with them! I love that I can offer these sessions to seniors coming from other states – it truly is awesome giving them the “California Experience” for their senior portraits!

Being from Minnesota, Gabby really wanted something unique for her senior pics – but not necessarily ALL beach. I suggested Abbot Kinney because it’s very SoCal – with lots of great color and texture, but also super close to the beach so we can end there …. and it worked out great. We had beautiful weather as well!

Gabby is absolutely a doll – she had some great outfits as well. Jami kept her pretty natural – she is already stunning, so we just helped accentuate her already great features. Gabby’s Mom is a hair stylist, so she hooked her up with beautiful beachy waves before we met up with her and her Dad in Venice. Jami is no stranger to doing makeup in the back of my van LOL – we have to do this often, and it’s super easy! I have an outlet we plug in as well when a client needs curls or straightening – this is the only reason I still own a minivan 😉

Soon, we were finally off to the beach.

Such a fun day…and then we got this gorgeous sunset! What a way for Gabby’s senior portrait session to end!

The great thing about traveling to southern California for your senior portraits is the weather stays very mild for most of the year. So if you’re looking to take a quick trip out to LA, I’d love to have a senior session with you while you’re here! Ask Gabby…they’re a ton of fun! I have all the means to cater to out-of-state clients and it’s super easy to share the final images with them, as well as offer beautiful albums and other beautiful ways of protecting your gorgeous investment.

Here’s some more of Gabby’s awesome California senior session!

Guys, I am COMPLETELY booked until late January – these next couple of months are pretty nuts but I REALLY want to get some more 2018 Seniors on the books before the Class of 2019 is up!

YES – I am already booking Class of 2019 Senior Models AND regular clients – so click HERE to get on the list for that! But … I still have some room for Class of 2018 … so hit me up if you want a killer session sometime between January and March.  (maybe someone wants to get a SNOW shoot this year? Let’s go!!)
