Kaitlyn Mountain Ridge Class of 2024 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

Hey senior squad! SO goofy sounding hahah. ANYWAYS…Picture this: senior year is winding down, the future beckons, and you're ready to capture all the feels in epic photos. Well, that's exactly what Kaitlyn, a soon-to-be college music major and Mountain Ridge High School grad, did with her Adventure package senior session! We traded the familiar hallways for the majestic Glanis Sand Dunes in Brawley, California, and the results were pure magic.

For the past four years, Kaitlyn's been a rockstar (well, technically a bass clarinetist!) in the Mountain Ridge Wind Ensemble and Marching Band. Remember the band that keeps on winning State competition? Yep, Kaitlyn was right there in the heart of it all, leading her section with passion and precision. I’m blessed to have been there to document a lot of it and watch her grow! That's right, yours truly! Seeing her dedication and musicality translate from the field to her future at GCC and NAU is truly inspiring.

Kaitlyn came prepared for her session with a wardrobe mix of casual and dressy, each outfit reflecting a different facet of her personality. Comfy jeans for that laid-back vibe, a flowy dresses that danced in the desert breeze, and even a stunning gown that transformed the dunes into a high-fashion runway. It wasn't just about looking good (though let's be honest, she rocked every single look!), it was about showcasing the many sides of Kaitlyn – the musician, the adventurer, the future music major ready to conquer the world.

Kaitlyn's fashion was epic. Having 3-5 well-chosen outfits that reflect your personality is key. Just one or two outfit changes can feel limiting during a session. Finding the sweet spot is important.‘

Senior portraits are more than just photos; they're a time capsule of this unforgettable chapter in your life. This year, my calendar filled up by mid-February, so many seniors missed their chance to shine. Don't let that happen to you! Book your session early to secure your spot and capture the magic of senior year.

Let Anjeanette Photography Capture Your Senior Story!

We can't wait to collaborate with you and create a session that's as unique and unforgettable as you are. Contact Anjeanette Photography today to schedule your consultation and start planning your dream senior portrait session! Let's make your senior year the perfect melody!

Ellie MOUNTAIN RIDGE CLASS OF 2024 | PHOENIX & PEORIA GRADUATION PICTURES & HIGH SCHOOL PHOTOGRAPHER ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

Sunsets have a magical way of painting the sky with vibrant hues, creating the perfect backdrop for capturing memorable moments. I had the pleasure of photographing a sunset mini session with Ellie, a Class of 2024 senior from Mountain Ridge High School.

Senior pictures are more than just photographs; they are a celebration of achievements and a reflection of personality. Ellie's senior photos captured her essence perfectly, showcasing her radiant smile and infectious enthusiasm for life.

Throughout her high school journey, Ellie was actively involved in various activities, including band and winterguard. These pursuits not only enriched her high school experience but also shaped her into the remarkable individual she is today. Incorporating elements of her interests into the photoshoot like her with her flute and a few dancers leaps added a personal touch, capturing the essence of who Ellie is as a person.

As the sun dipped below the horizon behind a wall of clouds, the greyness was transformed to a painting with the sky in shades of orange and pink. We wrapped up the session almost in the dark, which I am ausre was a little concerning to Ellie and her folks, but being a flash and natural light photographer (aka any available light) I knew I captured the portraits without fake AI skies added later- because flash photography allows you to set the background in camera to capture what’s really there, then turn on the flash to capture your subject!

I was so excited for what we captured with an amazing young lady. Graduation portraits serve as a timeless reminder of a significant milestone in one's life, encapsulating the anticipation and excitement of embarking on a new chapter.

Sunset sessions offer the perfect opportunity to capture senior pictures that are not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful. Ellie's photoshoot was a testament to the beauty of this fleeting moment in time, serving as a lasting memento of her high school journey and the bright future that lies ahead.

Ben Class of 2024 | Peoria & Phoenix Arizona Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography

Class of 2024, Meet Your New Senior Pic Muse: Ben's Classic Car Meets Streetwear Symphony

Forget awkward yearbook photos and cheesy backdrops. Phoenix seniors, it's time to level up your graduation portrait game. Enter Ben, Class of 2024, and a swaggering testament to the power of vision, personality, and a killer vintage Corvette Stingray. Let's be real, senior pics can sometimes feel like a forced march through tired tropes. A lot of guys just don’t get into them because they completely disinterested in stale and cheesy looks - but it doesn’t have to be that way! I was SO EXCITED for this session, Ben knew exactly what he wanted from a hip studio, to pose ideas, and urban backdrops. He took the reins and drove this session straight into a whole new lane. Think streetwear swagger meets classic car cool, with a dash of timeless style and a whole lot of personality.

This videos music: NBHD NICK Double Up

Ben's wardrobe was a carefully curated symphony of streetwear staples and authentic vintage sustainable thrifts. Think Iconic Detroit Carharrt Jacket, graphic tees, and kicks from boots to sneakers that would make any magazine. It def gave me Lewys feelings! (Ball is a Scottish fashion and lifestyle influencer)

And then there was the Corvette– a cherry & chrome masterpiece that ALMOST stole the show (don't worry, Ben, you held your own!).

This wasn't just a photo shoot; it was an experience to celebrate senior year before Ben conquers the world (one killer outfit at a time).

These are not your average senior portraits; they're a visual manifesto of Ben's unique style and personality. They're the kind of pics that'll make your yearbook jealous and have your Insta followers begging for the secret to pulling off such effortless cool.

Class of 2024, what are you waiting for? Ditch the tired cliches and embrace your own senior pic symphony. Don't be afraid to break the mold, showcase your passions, and let your personality shine. And if you need a little guidance on transforming your vision into reality, well, that's where I come in. Don’t worry if you haven’t got an elaborate plan for your session however, that’s where I come in! Trust me to know the spots and poses- and I even have wardrobe suggestions to help!

Ryan Mountain Ridge Class of 2024 | Peoria & Phoenix Arizona Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography

“Season Finale” Song by Beò https://artlist.io/royalty-free-music/song/season-finale/72155

I am fresh off an epic senior portrait session that left me buzzing with inspiration! Today, I’m spotlighting Ryan, a dude who's as versatile as the Arizona landscape itself. Ryan isn't your average senior. This guy packs a double punch (pun intended!), excelling both in the serene world of karate and the high-energy realm of the Arizona State Champion Mountain Ridge marching band drumline. So, how do you capture that kind of dynamism in a single session? We headed straight for Lake Pleasant, where mountains meet water and senior photos take on a whole new vibe. The golden Arizona sun bathed the lake in a warm glow as Ryan posed against the backdrop of rugged cliffs. We found this epic rock overlooking the lake to create a portrait in his Italian jacket from a recent trip overseas!

Then, with a quick wardrobe change and a mischievous twinkle in his eye, Ryan transformed into James Bond in his suit! Love it when senior bring a formal outfit.

As the sun dipped towards the horizon, painting the sky in fiery hues, we set off a few Enola Gaye colored smoke. With laser-sharp focus, his movements precise and graceful, Ryan unleashed his kata, detailed patterns of movements executed as a specified series of a variety of Karate moves. The sunset glow behind saguaro cacti set the perfect stage for silhouettes showing his talent and hard work.

But of course, senior portraits are more than just showcasing talents. They're about capturing the essence of who you are – the quiet moments, the genuine smiles, the hopes and dreams simmering beneath the surface.

By the end of the session, we had a collection of images that told Ryan's story – a story of strength, passion, and a spirit that's forever in tune with its own rhythm. These senior photos aren't just social media or yearbook filler; they're a reminder of who Ryan is and who he's becoming, a visual echo of the amazing journey that lies ahead.

So, are you ready to tell your own story through senior portraits? Let's chat and craft a session that captures your unique melody, whether it's a quiet ballad or a full-blown rock symphony! Llet's make your senior year unforgettable.

Lanae Phoenix Country Day Class of 2024 | Peoria & Phoenix Arizona Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography

If you haven't been to the Boyce Thompson Arboretum in Gold Canyon, Arizona, let me tell you, it's a photographer's paradise! Imagine towering cacti, vibrant desert flowers, and dramatic rock formations – the perfect backdrop for capturing Phoenix Country Day senior Lanae's unique personality and celebrating her upcoming graduation.

“Season Finale” Song by Beò https://artlist.io/royalty-free-music/song/season-finale/72155

The day brought moody clouds and golden sunlight filtered through the branches of ancient cacti, and no matter the weather conditions Lanae's confidence and energy shone brighter. We explored the diverse landscape, from the cacti-studded trails to the lush green meadows, each location offering a new opportunity to create stunning senior photos.

But there was more to this session than picture-perfect poses – they're not just about capturing a moment in time, they're about capturing the essence of who you are and the journey you've taken. By the end of the session, we had a collection of photographs that truly reflected Lanae's spirit – vibrant, confident, and full of hope for the future. I know these senior pictures will be cherished for years to come, a reminder of this special time in her life.

Kenna Class of 2024 | Peoria & Phoenix Arizona Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography

Let me share a little about the fantastic senior portrait session I had with the lovely Kenna in the heart of downtown Phoenix, Arizona. It was a sun-kissed day filled with laughter, vibrant colors, and the excitement of capturing Kenna's unique personality as she embarks on this exciting journey from high school to the next chapter of her life.

Our adventure began amidst the urban charm of downtown Phoenix. The city provided the perfect backdrop for Kenna's senior pictures – a fusion of modernity and tradition. We explored the colorful murals that adorned the walls as we strolled through the streets. The energy of the city blended seamlessly with the excitement of capturing these precious moments.

From the bustling streets, we transitioned to a more serene setting, capturing Kenna against the iconic golden Phoenix skyline. The graduation portraits radiated a sense of accomplishment and anticipation for the future. The city, with its towering buildings and endless possibilities, mirrored the wide-open path that lies ahead for Kenna. It was a beautiful juxtaposition – the urban landscape symbolizing the journey from adolescence to adulthood.

Kenna's senior photos weren't just about freezing a moment in time; they were about celebrating the unique individuality that makes her who she is. The transition from high school to the next adventure is a monumental one, and Kenna's senior portrait session perfectly encapsulated the excitement, beauty, and promise that this journey holds. Here's to Kenna and the exciting path that lies ahead – may it be as vibrant and full of life as the downtown streets of Phoenix! 🌆🎓

Madison ASU Class of 2023 | Peoria AZ Senior Graduation Pictures by Phoenix Arizona Photographer Anjeanette Photography

As an Arizona Valley based photographer AND Sun Devil mom myself, I’ve photographed countless Arizona State University seniors on the cusp of graduation. Each one has a unique story to tell, and Madison, an accomplished scholar with a passion for literature, is no exception. Madison’s senior portrait session was a true delight. 

We took the adventure to Scottsdale, Arizona, where we explored the enchanting Butterfly Wonderland where the vibrant colors and fluttering wings created a magical backdrop to the cozy corners of The Poisoned Pen Bookstore. Madison's senior pictures session was a unique blend of nature's beauty and the magic found within the pages of a good book.

View fullsize

Next, we ventured to The Poisoned Pen Bookstore, a haven for bookworms like Madison. Surrounded by towering bookshelves and the comforting aroma of old books, she posed and browsed for favorites novels and childhood picture books to include in portraits. The bookstore was a vibe of a  metaphor for the vast knowledge Madison has acquired during her time at ASU, a place where each book represents a chapter of her academic journey.

“In Solis Umbra Floreo” – “In the Shade of the Sun, I Bloom.”

Madison, as you step into the next chapter of your life, I have no doubt that you will continue to bloom and flourish. May your passion for learning and your love for literature guide you as you make your mark on the world. Congratulations on your graduation, and may your future be filled with countless moments of success and fulfillment. 🦋📚

Olivia Class of 2024 | Phoenix Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography Peoria Arizona

It's hard to believe how fast time has flown. Senior year is a reminder that childhood doesn’t last forever- but that the transition to adulthood and beyond should still be fun!

I recently photographed Olivia's senior portrait session at the stunning Boyce Thompson Arboretum. It was an unforgettable experience capturing this amazing young woman as she embarks on her senior year.

THIS VIDEOS MUSIC: Imagine Song by Macifif

Olivia is part of the Class of 2024, and her enthusiasm for this milestone year was truly contagious. As we ventured through the Arboretum, she told me about her Senior Sunrise that day at the football stadium, inncocent fun pranks by the senior class, and upcoming milestones like the last homecoming, and her plans in the medical field after hogh school. Golden rays of the sun played peek-a-boo through the lush greenery, creating the most magical setting. It was a day filled with laughter and candid moments.

When I asked Olivia about her choice of location, she knew she wanted as much greenery as we could possibly find in Arizona- and Boyce was the top of list for this reason! Even after the end of what I call “crispy season” (summer) the Master Gardners at Boyce has tropical lush forest areas, huge trees, and huge flower bushes everywhere still in a spring like bloom. The variety of backdrops at the Arboretum allowed us to capture Olivia's portraits in many ways. From a serene ivy covered veranda to vibrant wildflowers, each location added a unique touch to her senior photos. We even managed to sneak in a few shots amidst the iconic cacti, creating a beautifully harmonious blend of nature and Olivia's spirit.

Olivia's vibrant personality shone through in every frame. Her smile was infectious, and her eyes sparkled with excitement for the future. It was clear that she was savoring every moment of this day.

I love my job folks! Honored that Olivia nd her mother Jaime chose me for these milestone photographs! Olivia's session was a wonderful reminder of the significance of capturing these cherished moments as we transition into new chapters of our lives. It was a true honor to be a part of her senior year, and I can't wait to see where this Class of 2024 grad will go.

DON’T I HAVE TO USE THE SCHOOL YEARBOOK COMPANY? | Anjeanette Photography Seniors Phoenix Az→

No, you do not have to go to *JUST* the school yearbook photographer.

But I think you’ll want to do BOTH!

The schools portrait company is hired to take your yearbook mug-shot, tux or drape, and cap and gown. Unless otherwise stated that is the image they will use in the yearbook regardless. You are so much more than one shot!

Honestly, I love and have taken the traditional tux and drape shot. Its a classic! Secret Confession: I WAS a school yearbook photographer for 8 years- its a great business. One of the school the company I worked with service a high school that had large composites sheets from every year the school had been open- back to the 1920’s! It was amazing- and being a small town there were kiddos going to school with their great grandmothers, grandpa’s, and parents watching over them! Its timeless and sentimental and I loved it!

So get that yearbook pic and enjoy it. I suggest getting the school-approved print portrait package for a formal yearbook shot too. I bought my kid’s yearbook photos and senior photos from the school-approved studio too. I mean let’s face it I am the ideal client…I want all the images of my baby ha! But I also wanted something that REALLY showed off who they are and their personalities too.

..... what about YOU? Your hobbies and passions? Some schools allow independent photographers’ images- like mine- to also appear in your book. Regardless an individualized senior session is an important milestone. All other photographs beyond one formal headshot from the school’s photographer will be fast, cookie-cutter images, and they are completely optional to purchase!

Over and over I’ve been encountering seniors who believe that they must use the school photographer for all of their senior portraits. The school’s yearbook photography companies will attempt to lead you to believe that they are the ONLY photographers and you must go to them since they purchased a contract with your school for your photos, that is not true and you are not obligated to buy anything from them-

I encourage a classic formal portrait in cap & Gown or Tux or Drape- its a milestone shared by your parents and grandparents, an iconic part of the senior experience. But wait- there can be so much MORE!

Felt cute..

Might post my 1991 school yearbook pic later!

AFTER THE YEARBOOK FORMAL ADD THE REAL YOU PERSONALITY AND ARTISTIC MODERN PORTRAIT FROM ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY!

You are free to make your choice about your senior photographer!

I encourage you to look around at several talented, small, independent photographers such as myself in your area. Make a decision based on the quality of their work. You will get better quality images, more time spent with you and more poses to choose from if you use an independent photographer with years of training and artistic experience.

The yearbook photography companies are usually high-volume studios that profit from getting students in and out quickly with just a few backgrounds- the same ones all of your class will have.  And that’s their business model because it works- AND its inportant to get a photo of every kid. Not everyone will want a special session just for them and sad as that maes me personally hahah I want every kid in the yearbook. Sometimes when they are actually there in the yearbook folks studio they realize its a pretty cool experience and want more poses…You’ll still pay big bucks for your senior pictures at a bigger studio, but what you won’t realize is that you are paying for the business name.  Consider your options. In the world of digital imagery, why would a studio only let you pick a few poses?  Independent photographers will provide you with lots of options and will take the time to individually edit your images.  They will take pride in their work because the images they produce will be a direct reflection of their abilities.

Do you charge more than the school photographer?

It really depends, however, most high-volume yearbook photographers charge more than I do for their sessions and products. Please compare our prices. ;)

The best times to take senior pictures in Arizona | Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

Senior year is a momentous time in every student's life, and one of the most cherished traditions is capturing this milestone through senior portraits. In Arizona, with our diverse landscapes and unique natural beauty, I make selecting the best time to take senior portraits easy as I have already considered weather, lighting, and different areas that express the character of our state - so that I get you the best results in stunning photographs that truly capture the essence of the senior and this desert wonderland.

Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

Arizona is known for its arid climate, characterized by hot summers and mild winters- and its a senior photographers paradise with all the variety and availability to have sessions year round. To avoid the scorching heat of the summer months, it is advisable to plan the session during the fall, winter, or spring seasons, or to have a summer session in studio or a unique indoor location. Autumn offers comfortable temperatures, golden foliage, and vibrant colors, providing a picturesque backdrop for portraits. Winter brings cooler temperatures, which can be a refreshing change, and the possibility of capturing unique shots against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains in northern Arizona. Spring brings the bloom of desert wildflowers, offering a vibrant and colorful setting for senior portraits.

Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

A crucial element to consider is lighting and time of day. Arizona is known for its abundant sunshine, which can create harsh shadows and intense highlights during midday, which is why I avoid middle-of-the-day sessions unless they are indoors.

To achieve softer and more flattering lighting, I highly recommend scheduling the session during the "Golden Hour." The Golden Hour refers to the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset when the light is softer, warmer, and more diffused. During this time, the Phoenix desert landscape is bathed in a beautiful golden glow, creating a magical atmosphere for senior portraits. This enchanting light adds depth, warmth, and a touch of romance to the photographs, enhancing the overall aesthetic.

Golden Hour

Warm golden light, high contrast, stunning glow….The best light of the day for outdoor shoots! I start golden hour senior sessions two hours before sunset to maximize the wow! Awesome for highlighting the best skin, colors, and dimension in photos.

 Sunset photos

Just as or after Golden Hour when the sun dips behind the mountains surrounding the Phoenix Valley is prime time for striking sunsets. Never can guarantee- but when there is on Arizona has the best!

View fullsize

Blue Hour after Sunset- NIGHT SHOTS

Dramatic, bold, colorful- lights! Night shots as unique as you are a great opportunity to shine. This is at the end & included in most action sessions- if we plan it right we can have Golden Hour, Sunset, and Blue Hour night photos in one session!

View fullsize

View fullsize

Sunrise/Morning Sessions

Beat the heat! Cooler temps and cooler colour tones- this is the best light in my opinion for Light & Airy style photos. Sunrise sessions start 15 minutes before sunrise so no sleeping in hahah

Studio or Indoor Sessions- Anytime!

A studio or interior space can capture YOU and your vision without distraction or crowds. From an epic shoot at a museum or theatre (click to check out unique spots)

to a classic fashion studio (studio portfolio here) we can get all the looks- while enjoying air conditioning!

View fullsize

View fullsize

It is important to consider the personal preferences and style of the senior being photographed so I like to collaborate with the senior and their family to understand their preferences, interests, and aspirations can help in choosing the best time and Phoenix or other location for their senior portraits.

Some individuals may have a preference for a specific season, while others may have a particular vision or theme in mind.  This collaboration ensures that the photographs reflect their unique personality and create a lasting memory of this significant milestone. I would love to bring your vision to life and be a part of your senior year with senior photos that express you!

Caeli MRHS CLASS OF 2023 | PHOENIX SENIOR GRADUATION PICTURES BY ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

“She reminded me of a swan.Beautiful, elegant and graceful.She oozes love, magic and passion.If you meet a swan in human form, protect her heart.She’ll encourage you to spread your wings and fly.”

— Labhandar Rós

LOVE IT when a senior chooses a unique place for photos!! This was a hoot, I had a ton of poses, plans, and ideas for this portion of the session ready...then the moment after we launched off the deck I started giggling realizing I didn't exactly factor in any piloting the boat aspects. It's been many years since I was any kind of sailor so thankfully it was a pretty manageable paddle boat hahaha.

What a stunner!! String lights are cool, and that pink-hued sunset sure is nice, but Caeli is what REALLY lit up the Tempe Town Bridge last week!!

Lina Class of 2023 | Phoenix Senior Graduation Pictures by Anjeanette Photography

Tonight...
Tonight...
Oh uh huh make it magnificent

Tonight
RIGHTTTT!

Oh your hair is beautiful

Oh tonight...

ATOMIC

- Blondie

Lina is ATOMIC! I love it when Glam Punk artist & style icon Debbie Harry growls that into the mic- Lina brought the same powerful energy and style to her senior session!! When your senior walks out dressed in platform shoes, blue hair, kohled eyes, a leather duster, and tie- yeah you know the session is going to ROCK!!

Oh hey, Nagel, we see you there defining the whole 80's aesthetic ;)

Thank you to Atomic Mesa for hosting us in your amazing store!

“She’s an old soul with young eyes, a vintage heart, and a beautiful mind.”

Elliot SDOHS Class of 2022 | Phoenix Senior Pictures Anjeanette Photography

It's finally time for Elliot's blog <3 This year went by flying fast, and while it's always crazy in spring for senior photographers scrambling to get images to soon-to-be grads in time- it is a SUPER CRAZY AWESOME time for seniors as they pack up four years of memories and say goodbye to high school and start reaching even higher for dreams ...this amazing young lady has already walked the stage for commencement!!

Congratulations Elliot!! You accomplished all the things from band to dance to academics- here is to the next chapter!

Emily MRHS Class of 2022 | Phoenix Senior Pictures by Anjeanette Photography

Emily’s video is ready!!! Yay!  That means….it’s delivery day for her gallery!!! What a star- this Varsity Mountain Ridge Cheerleader’s awesome downtown Phoenix rooftop sesh was amazing. This session really shows off her spunk and smile. I like to do multiple sets from each session on Insta to show off multi aspects of each seniors personality, their different outfits, and the way the changing light hits and glows those last two hours of the day. Great work Emily!

Abby Class of 2022 | Phoenix Senior Pictures Anjeanette Photography

Congratulations Abby on your graduation!! Soon you will be bidding Shadow Ridge goodbye and off to new adventures and challenges to conquer in the great North!!! Abby wanted senior portraits with that red rock Sedona vibe and Tonto Forest always delivers! She is a force of nature in more ways than one- so nature was the perfect place to match her energetic personality and beautiful smiles! I loved getting to know this Shadow Ridge Heptathlete- forever impressed!!!

😍Thank you again for these amazing pics! We absolutely adore them! You captured Abby’s strength and femininity in all the elements (surroundings) she wanted… perfectly!
Good luck this next senior season. We will see you when Hailey (the little one) is a senior and when Abby graduates college:) - Abby’s mom Jodi
