Danielle’s Senior Photo Session

This session is one of my favorite senior photo sessions that I have done. With two different days of shooting, unlimited outfit changes, and being a gorgeous model, Danielle had a lot of beautiful images for graduation announcements, the yearbook, and of course, instagram 🙂

I was particularly excited for this session, and feeling rather old, because I used to babysit Danielle and her older sister. In fact, Danielle is the first baby I can ever remember holding! I used to create elaborate backdrops and props for impromptu photoshoots while I babysat them, that I would then gift their mom for her birthdays and Christmases. I was so honored to take her sister’s senior photos 2 years before these as well. It felt so surreal to go from photographing them at only a few years old to then taking their SENIOR PHOTOS!

For her first day of shooting, Danielle drove down to the Springs, and we went to a variety of locations, some very sporadic that we spotted as we drove and hopped out for a few photos before heading to the next location.

I think my favorite images that day were the ones we got in downtown Colorado Springs. Just walking around you can find lots of colorful and unique spots for portrait photos:

For her second day of shooting, Danielle drove to the Springs with her best friend for a double senior photo session. They had a blast together and we went to a few parks and Garden of the Gods for some nature shots to add some diversity to Danielle’s previous urban shoot.
