Riley Class of 2025 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
This kids going places! Artist and actor Riley has been flying around the country auditions and vetting colleges for a major in Musical theatre- as you can imagine spots in the programs are extremely sought after and as a result the competition is high with each college only taking a small number each year. Beyond the normal college application process and essays etc, Musical theatre hopefuls also have sing, monologue, and dance auditions! I think Riley talked about 5 different schools she was considering, although she was applying to many more. She has an edge though, having already performed in musicals and preparing for this for years.
This musical actress was even nominated for a Lead Actress ariZoni Award for her performance as Lina Lamont in CYT’S 2022 production of “Singin’ in the Rain” and chosen by her cast members to receive the Rose of Sharon Award.
“Getting an acting gig starts by getting in the door of a casting director’s office. Regardless of how great your acting skills are if you don’t have a headshot to use as your calling card, no one might ever know you exist. Make sure to give your headshot the attention it deserves.
”
So before we headed over to Stelle India Park for senior photos in flowy dresses and classic Chuck’s, we stopped at Afternoon Studio for Acting Portfolio Headshots! Approachable, energetic, and charismatic smile- a winning combination to make your best first impression. And everything your looking for in an acting or modeling headshot where decisions are made in split seconds- you have to stand out.
Riley has all of these characteristics and more, her smile is cool and vibrant, only surpassed by a fantastic laugh and authentic personality. She is sure to take her dreams to reality with her determination, and I look forward to seeing her light up the world someday!
If you’re considering a senior portrait session in Phoenix, locations like Steele Indian Park are an amazing option in Phoenix, offering a balance of modern design, stunning light, and a connection to your personal journey. Whether you’re wrapping up high school or college, choosing a spot that holds significance to you makes all the difference. And we can always add on Pro Headshots to give you the competitive edge!
Riley, thank you for letting me document this chapter of your life! Your determination, personality, and enthusiasm for the future make you unforgettable. I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do as you sing and dance in college—you’re going to own it!

Brady Paradise Valley Christian Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
Brady’s senior portrait session was packed with adventure, personality, and just the right amount of Arizona sunshine. This Paradise Valley Christian senior brought a BMX bike, dirt ramps, and his chill vibe to the Peoria Desert—and dang, did it all come together! The whole day felt like a celebration, not just of Brady’s accomplishments, but of who he is: smart, fun, talented, and ready for the future.
Brady chose the mini session - which I literally designed around guys who just want photos for their mama and not a huge long hassle. I def don’t think longer sessions are hassles 😂 but photos are my thing, if they are NOT your thing the short and sweet mini is the way to go! Brady didn’t want 200 photos or more than a couple of outfits so the mini was the perfect fit.
Just because it’s a quick session doesn’t mean it has to be boring though- the Peoria Desert Preserve was the perfect backdrop for Brady’s session. There’s something about the desert’s raw beauty—the rugged terrain, the muted tones, and the way the light dances through the brush—that makes every photo feel timeless. But this wasn’t your typical desert shoot. Brady had a vision, and it included his BMX bike and the dirt ramps tucked away in the Peoria Preserve. Yes, we hit the ramps, and yes, it was amazing!
We started the session as the late afternoon light softened, creating that golden, dreamy glow photographers adore. Brady was totally in his element, and it showed in every frame. Whether he was casually leaning on his bike or catching air over the ramps, he brought an easy confidence to the shoot. It’s always exciting when seniors bring something personal to their session—it makes the photos so much more than portraits. They become a snapshot of who you are at this moment in your life.
What stood out to me most about Brady was how effortlessly cool and laid-back he was. He didn’t overthink the poses or try to put on a show; he just was. That kind of authenticity is what makes senior pictures unforgettable.
One of my favorite parts of the day was how we incorporated movement into the shoot. Brady’s BMX bike wasn’t just a prop—it was part of the action. Whether he was mid-jump or casually rolling across the frame, those moments added energy and excitement to the session. And let’s be honest, it’s not every day you get to photograph a senior doing BMX tricks in the middle of the desert.
The Peoria Preserve’s dirt ramps were a hidden gem. I’m 90% sure the ramps were created by neighborhood kids and they get more elaborate and kick ass every year! They gave us this incredible mix of textures—the soft desert sand, the rugged dirt trails between Saguaro Cacti, and the wide-open sky overhead. It was the kind of location that makes you want to shoot there every day. As the session wrapped up, the sun dipped lower, casting long shadows and turning the sky into a canvas of soft pinks and oranges. Those final moments were pure magic. Brady stood with his bike against the backdrop of the desert sunset, and it felt like the perfect closing chapter to his senior portraits.
Senior year is such an exciting time. It’s full of possibilities, reflection, and—let’s be honest—a little chaos. Capturing that in a way that feels personal and true is what makes senior portrait sessions so special. For Brady, it was all about blending his love for BMX, his laid-back personality, and the beauty of Arizona. And together, we created images that are as unique as he is.
If you’re thinking about your own senior portraits and wondering where to start, locations like the Peoria Desert are a fantastic choice. It’s one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona, offering versatility, natural beauty, and endless possibilities for creativity. Whether you’re into sports, fashion, or something completely unexpected, we can create a session that feels just right for you.
Want to see what makes my senior sessions stand out? Check out more here and start planning your perfect portrait experience.
Brady, you crushed this session! From the dirt ramps to the golden light, every moment felt like it captured who you are right now. Here’s to finishing senior year strong and chasing big dreams—you’ve got this!

5 Months to Make the most of Senior Year! | Senior Pictures near me, Phoenix Arizona
I’m here to help you navigate through this incredible year with a handy timeline and checklist to make sure you don’t miss a thing. Let’s dive into the must-dos for your senior year, from scheduling your senior portraits with me to marking those all-important yearbook dates and planning for special occasions like homecoming and prom.
Y’all, Senior year of high school is such an exciting time, filled with milestones, memories, and a lot to prepare for. I’m here to help you navigate through this incredible year with a handy timeline and checklist to make sure you don’t miss a thing. I remember being a first time senior parent and just barely making some of these dates despite my first senior being very organized and prepared- because you don’t know if you don’t know!
Let’s dive into the must-dos for your senior year, from scheduling your senior portraits with me to marking those all-important yearbook dates and planning for special occasions like homecoming and prom.
August - September: Kick Off the Year Right!
Get Organized: Start by getting a planner or calendar to keep track of important dates and deadlines. some schools provide them or great tracking apps.
Schedule Senior Portraits: One of the first things you’ll want to do is schedule your senior portraits with me. These photos are a major milestone, and we want to capture you at your best! Click here to book your session.
Schedule Yearbook Picture: You do need to make an appointment, usually with Dorian Studio or Grads, for the yearbook photo. No, you do not have to go to *JUST* the school yearbook photographer. BUT I THINK YOU’LL WANT TO DO BOTH! More about that here
Join Clubs and Activities: Get involved in school clubs and extracurricular activities. It’s a great way to make the most of your last year.
College Planning: Start researching colleges, preparing for the SAT/ACT, and planning college visits if you have not already. Remeber not every post graduation adventure has to be college! Take time to think about something you love doing, that you automatically go to and can do for hours without making yourself concentrate- it just feels natural and you get lost in it…then research places to further explore that interest. You really might be surprised what options are out there that do not involve a student loan. Colelege is fantastic, if it takes you to the path you want, or if you are not sure what that path is but know that classes excited you. But everyone has a different path and there are also amazing schools for music, art, mechanics, and other things that will help you find your passion and get you paid to do what you love too.
October - November: Capture the Moments
Homecoming: Homecoming is a special time, and you’ll want to capture it! Schedule a mini-session for homecoming photos. Trust me, these memories are worth it.
Yearbook Photos: Make sure you know the deadlines for your yearbook photos. Submit your senior portraits and any other required photos on time.
Start College Applications: Begin working on your college applications. Keep track of deadlines and make sure to get letters of recommendation from your teachers.
Senior Portraits: If you haven’t already, get your senior portraits done! We’ll create beautiful, timeless photos that you’ll cherish forever. Book your session here.
December - January: Mid-Year Checkpoint
Finalize College Applications: Complete and submit all your college applications. Double-check everything to make sure it’s perfect.
Holiday Photos: Consider scheduling a holiday-themed photo session with your friends or family. It’s a fun way to celebrate the season and make lasting memories.
Check Yearbook Deadlines: Make sure all your photos and entries for the yearbook are submitted. This includes senior quotes, baby photos, and any club or activity photos, and senior ads.
Cap and Gown: Order your cap and gown for graduation. It might seem early, but it’s better to be prepared.
Senior Portraits Reminder: If you still haven’t scheduled your senior portraits, now is the time! Don’t wait any longer to capture these special moments.
February - March: Focus on Fun
Plan for Prom: Start planning for prom. Schedule your prom photoshoot with me to ensure you get beautiful, professional photos of this unforgettable night.
Spring Break Plans: Make the most of your spring break. Whether you’re traveling or staying local, consider scheduling a fun photoshoot to capture your adventures.
Stay on Top of Schoolwork: Keep up with your studies. It’s easy to get distracted with all the fun events, but staying focused is key.
April - May: The Home Stretch
Prom Night: Enjoy your prom night to the fullest! Schedule a pre-prom photoshoot to capture you and your friends in your glamorous outfits.
Senior Activities: Participate in all the senior activities and events your school offers. These are moments you’ll treasure.
Prepare for Graduation: Make sure you have everything you need for graduation day. Check the dates and plan your family celebrations.
Final Senior Portraits: If you want a few last-minute senior photos in your cap and gown, schedule a quick session. It’s a wonderful way to wrap up your senior year.
June: Celebrate and Reflect
Graduation Day: This is your big day! Enjoy every moment and take plenty of photos with family and friends.
Thank You Notes: Send thank you notes to teachers, mentors, and anyone who helped you along the way.
Summer Fun: Celebrate your achievements over the summer. Plan trips, hang out with friends, and make the most of your time before college.
Timeline Checklist
August: Get organized, schedule senior portraits, join clubs, start college planning
September: Continue with college research, finalize senior portrait session
October: Homecoming photos, submit yearbook photos, start college applications
November: Complete senior portraits, finish college applications
December: Submit college applications, schedule holiday photo sessions, order cap and gown

Hannah Mountain ridge Class of 2024 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
I’m so excited to share Hannah’s senior mini portrait session in Phoenix, AZ. This session was an absolute delight, and I can’t wait for you to see the magic we created.
Hannah is a pride of the West State Champion marching band piccolo musician. Her talent and dedication have earned her a spot at Purdue after graduation. What an accomplishment! I’m so proud of her and thrilled to have captured this special moment in her life.
We chose Deem Hills for her session, and it was the perfect backdrop. The natural beauty of the hills, combined with the golden light of the sunset, created a stunning setting for Hannah’s portraits. She arrived with a big smile and an even bigger heart, ready to make some memories.
One of my favorite parts of the session was when we started with some casual shots. Hannah’s joy and enthusiasm were infectious. She played her piccolo, filling the air with beautiful music. It was like having our own private concert. Her passion for music shone through, making each photo come alive. And oh man, I’m so glad we did this! Her glow? A whole vibe!
As the session progressed, we moved to different spots around Deem Hills. Each location offered something unique. From the rocky terrain to the lush greenery, every angle was perfect. Hannah’s natural beauty and grace were evident in every shot. We captured a mix of posed and candid photos, each one telling a part of her story.
One of the highlights was the sunset portraits. The way the light bathed the hills in a warm, golden glow was simply magical. Hannah looked like a goddess with the sunset reflecting off her hair and skin. We found a perfect spot with the sun setting behind her, and the result was breathtaking. LOVE IT!
We had a few laughs along the way too. A curious lizard decided to join our session, and Hannah’s reaction was priceless. It’s those unexpected moments that add a touch of humor and make the experience memorable. We even managed to get a fun shot with our little friend in the background. These spontaneous moments are what make each session unique.
Hannah’s mom was there to support and cheer her on. The bond between them was heartwarming. We took a few shots of them together, capturing their special relationship. It’s always a joy to see the love and pride parents have for their seniors.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, we wrapped up the session with a few final shots. The sky was painted with hues of orange and pink, creating a dreamy backdrop. Hannah’s silhouette against the vibrant sky was stunning. It was the perfect end to a perfect session.
Hannah, your senior mini portrait session was an absolute joy! Your talent, beauty, and spirit made every moment special. Keep shining and chasing your dreams at Purdue. Your future is incredibly bright, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll achieve. You’re a star! 🌟
For everyone reading, if you’re looking for a unique and unforgettable senior portrait session, Deem Hills is a fantastic choice. The natural beauty and dramatic skies provide the perfect setting for capturing those special moments. And remember, it’s all about having fun and being yourself. That’s when the magic happens!

Maxie Perry High class of 2024 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
Maxie's senior portrait session on Roosevelt Row was absolutely incredible! Maxie isn't just any senior; he's also a photographer. He knows how to work the camera, both in front of and behind it.
We started the sesh with Maxie showing up in the first of two fantastic outfits. Each one was on point. First, he had this casual, red polo and relaxed denims look that was effortlessly stylish. Then he switched it up with a crisp brown shirt and edgy black jeans.Every look was a total hit. LOVE IT!
Roosevelt Row is the perfect spot for photos. The murals, vibrant colors, and artsy atmosphere make it an ideal backdrop. And Maxie nailed every pose. Honestly, it was like he’d been modeling forever. 📸
One of my favorite moments was when we checked out the 1 1/2 Street Mural alley behind The Churchill. Maxie stood in front of it, and hopped up on a nearby set of mailboxes to hit all the angle. The contrast was just perfect. His posing was spot on, and we captured some stunning shots. It was like the mural was made for him. The energy of Roosevelt Row matched Maxie's personality so well – friendly, confident, and just cool.
The best part of the session was the laughter and fun we had. At one point, some curious passerbys decided to join our shoot. Why do people always ask “Are you taking photos?” Maxie took it all in stride, laughing and making the best of every moment. It’s those unexpected moments that make the shoot so unique. City Life! It isn’t just about the photos; it’s about the experience.
Maxie told me about his love for photography and it really shone through when he described some real estate work he was part of. He’s been taking photos for himself and his school, and you can tell he’s got an eye for it. His passion is contagious, and it made the session even more enjoyable. Seeing him so engaged and excited was truly inspiring.
We ended the day with some golden hour shots on top of the 1st street garage, and the lighting was perfect. That glow was everything. Maxie looked absolutely radiant, and the photos captured that dreamy, warm light beautifully. It was the perfect way to wrap up an amazing session.
Maxie, you are a star! Your senior session was one for the books. Keep being awesome and chasing your dreams. Your talent and passion for photography are going to take you far, and I can’t wait to see what you do next.
If you’re looking for a spot that’s full of life and color for your senior portraits, Roosevelt Row is the place to be. And remember, it’s all about having fun and being yourself. That’s when the magic happens!
Thanks for tagging along on this adventure with Maxie and me. Until next time, keep shining and making memories! 📸✨

Kate MRHS Class of 2024 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
Meet Kate, graduating senior from Mountain Ridge High School. I met Kates while they were an incredible member of the marching and concert bands, and the wind ensemble, where they played the saxophone. Kate’s dedicated to their music but is still unsure if they will continue in band when in their future adventures in Tucson at the University of Arizona. After years of hard practicing it may be time for a break to explore other interests and passions! I feel so honored to have been a part of Kate’s Marching band career, at competitions and senior banners while with the Pride of the West Media Team, and individually after my kids graduated band. Their senior banner was proudly displayed on the football field and at competitions, was a testament to their hard work and accomplishments. Kate’s journey has been nothing short of amazing.
For our photo session, Kate chose a Mini Sesh at Deems Hills Park at sunset. The mini is the sweet spot for seniors and parents who want great senior photos, but are only want a couple of outfits, and a shorter time commitment without a video.
This location is absolutely magical, especially as the sun dips below the mountain horizon, casting a warm, golden light over everything.
Natural Light
The natural light at Deems Hills was perfect for creating a rich, artistic glow. I love working with natural light; it brings out such beautiful, authentic tones. I also love using a flash to capture both the stunning sky and Kate in perfect lighting. Because I don’t photoshop in fake skies (or skies that were not really there) using flash to illuminate the subject while the camera is set to capture the sky gives me the best of both worlds for awesome lighting! Without flash you have the choice to see either your subject OR the sky…but the cool thing about being an available light photographer like myself is the chance to capture both distinct looks! The combination of natural and artificial light created dynamic effects, highlighting Kate’s unique style and personality.
Flash Lighting
Kate’s outfit choices were spot on – they started with a burgundy suit jacket paired with classic Chucks, giving off a cool, confident vibe. Later, they changed into a University of Arizona sweatshirt, ready for their exciting new chapter in Tucson.
Kate’s choice of outfits really showcased their personality. The burgundy suit jacket was bold and stylish, a perfect match for their confident demeanor. One of my favorite captures was when Kate stood against the backdrop of the setting sun, their burgundy suit jacket catching a little wind with the rare and epic blue clouds behind them. Ok there wasn’t actually any wind! Mom stood by to flip up the jacket before quickly diving out of the way! Kate is so poised and confident, ready to take on the world. The contrast between the deep burgundy and the cool blues of the sky well before sunset was stunning.
The University of Arizona sweatshirt, on the other hand, was a nod to their future and all the exciting opportunities that await. It was a great way to capture both who they are now and who they’re on the way to becoming.
We had a lot of fun during the session, too. Kate’s sense of humor and laid-back attitude kept things light and enjoyable. We wandered through the park, chatting about their future plans and reminiscing about their time in the band. Kate is so excited about heading to the University of Arizona & can’t wait to explore all that Tucson has to offer!
As the session came to an end, the sky turned a deep, dusky pink, providing the perfect backdrop for some final shots. These photos will be a wonderful keepsake for Kate as they embark on their new journey.
I’m so proud of Kate and all they’ve accomplished. From their time in the marching and concert bands to their upcoming adventures at the University of Arizona, they have shown incredible dedication, talent, and resilience. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things they’ll do in the future. Kate, thank you for such a memorable session. Your enthusiasm, humor, and passion for music are truly inspiring. I wish you all the best at the University of Arizona and beyond. Keep shining bright and chasing your dreams!
To all the high school seniors and parents out there, Kate’s story is a beautiful reminder of the importance of celebrating your unique journey. Senior year is such a special time, full of growth, discovery, and new beginnings. Whether you’re pursuing your passions, heading off to college, or exploring new opportunities, take a moment to capture these memories. They are the ones you’ll look back on and cherish for years to come.

Ethan OC Class of 2024 | Phoenix Senior Photographer Anjeanette Photography
Ethan is gearing up for some epic adventures in Flagstaff! He has this cool, laid-back vibe that made our photo session an absolute blast. Ethan wanted a rustic, outdoorsy location for his senior photos, and I knew just the place – the Peoria Regional Preserve.
This place is hands down one of my favorite desert locations. We set out on the preserve’s trails, surrounded by rugged rocks, endless saguaros, and stunning views of the Westwing and Eastwing mountains. The scenery was perfect for capturing Ethan’s adventurous spirit and his excitement for the future.
Ethan’s enthusiasm for his future adventures in Flagstaff was infectious. He’s so pumped about the natural beauty up there, the pine forests, and the cooler weather. I could see that same excitement as we walked through the preserve. It’s as if he was already imagining himself hiking through the trails and exploring the great outdoors. That’s the thing about Ethan – he’s always looking ahead, dreaming big, and ready for the next adventure.
As we wandered through the preserve, we found the most amazing spots for photos. The late afternoon light was perfect, casting a golden glow over everything. Ethan was a natural in front of the camera, totally relaxed and cool. His laid-back attitude made the whole session feel like a casual walk with a friend rather than a formal photo shoot.
Ethan’s easygoing nature was evident throughout the session. He’s one of those people who just goes with the flow, which made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. It’s no wonder he’s excited about Flagstaff – it’s a place that perfectly matches his adventurous and chill personality. I have no doubt he’s going to thrive up there, making the most of every opportunity and embracing all the new experiences.
We ended the session as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, orange glow over the landscape. The desert has this magical way of transforming in the evening light, and it was the perfect ending to a fantastic day. Ethan’s excitement for the future was palpable, and I felt so honored to capture this special moment in his life.
Ethan, if you’re reading this, I just want to say thank you for such a fun and memorable session. Your adventurous spirit and laid-back attitude are truly inspiring. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll do in Flagstaff and beyond. Keep dreaming big and chasing those adventures!
To all the high school seniors and parents out there, Ethan’s story is a reminder to embrace the journey and make the most of every moment. Senior year is such a special time, full of possibilities and excitement for the future. Whether you’re heading to college, traveling, or pursuing your passions, remember to take a moment to capture these memories. They’re the ones you’ll look back on and cherish for years to come.
Here’s to all the seniors of 2024 – may your future be as bright and beautiful as the Arizona sunsets!

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.

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!
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!
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!
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!

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

BFF'S JAVIER & JESSICA | BARRY GOLDWATER HIGH CLASS OF 2022 | PHOENIX SENIOR PICTURES BY ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
They say BFFs are always in step with each other, but I think its an extra level up that your so in sync you always step off LEFT and in perfect time with each other. Band best friends are truly for life, and Jessica and Javier are no exception!
This amazing Goldwater Bulldog trumpet player so impressed me with his friendliness, smarts, & sharp-dressed style- thanks for a great session J!
Beauty! Lovely day in the garden for a kick ass #BFF Phoenix senior session! Jessica, you were a dream- fantastic job, so comfortable natural in front of the camera!
Are you old enough to remember the old Reese’s peanut butter cup commercials? “Two great tastes that taste great together” - well that sums up BFF sessions perfectly! The Best Friend Package is perfect for friends who want photos of themselves and their besties, share a video memory with a reel & a tik tok, and it evens up being half the price of a full Action Package session for each of them! It’s everything that a Action 2 hour package has to offer- shared with the person that was there as they grew up navigating the …interesting and sometimes challenging waters of high school!
Blayden and Ethan Class of 2022 | Phoenix Az Senior Pictures by Anjeanette Photography
He’s got #clinteastwoodstyle ⭐️ Ethan’s senior session sneak peek is ready! He is headed to the great north next year for baseball, and adventure! Great job and great looks guy!
He is almost done with high school and already taking the real estate world by storm- great senior portrait session with an amazing athlete and motivated entrepreneur.
