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!

Austin Grand Canyon State University Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
Austin’s senior portrait session at Grand Canyon University was one of those days that felt filled with purpose. It wasn’t just about snapping a few pictures; it was about celebrating everything he’s accomplished and the places that shaped his journey. Austin, a GCU Class of 2025 grad in Information Technology and Cybersecurity, brought so much personality to this session, and the campus itself couldn’t have been a better backdrop for his story.
Track: Always Been a Dreamer (Instrumental) By Staffan Carlén https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/IyR7dTL1aB/
GCU is an oasis in downtown Glendale. From the moment you walk onto campus, you’re greeted by modern architecture, clean lines, and that unmistakable school spirit. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel inspired just by being there. Austin embodied that spirit entirely. Not only did he graduate with a degree in a field that’s in high demand, but he also landed a job with his alma mater right after walking across the stage. Talk about hitting the ground running!
We started the session by exploring some of his favorite spots on campus. First up, the server and computer labs. When it’s a place that holds so much meaning for someone, the vibe is perfect for portraits. Austin spent countless hours there, working on projects that helped him become the IT pro he is today. His enthusiasm for the space made every shot feel authentic. Seeing someone light up while standing next to rows of servers is a vibe all on its own.
Austin’s choice of outfits was spot-on. Nothing stuffy or overly formal—just a collection of looks that were undeniably him. A casual, cool button-up for those relaxed shots, and a crisp, professional outfit that showed he’s ready for whatever challenges his career might throw his way. The balance was perfect. It let his personality shine while also giving his family (and future LinkedIn profile!) those timeless, polished graduation portraits we all love.
The Arizona fall weather was working its magic that day. Cool, sunny, and just enough warmth to make everything pop. The light? Oh, it was a dream! We played with a lot of backlit natural light, giving Austin that soft glow that makes portraits feel alive and full of energy. But we also mixed in some flash to add drama and depth to a few of the shots—especially those in the labs. The combination of natural and artificial light gave us such a great variety of looks, and I couldn’t have been happier with how it all came together.
One of my favorite moments from the day was seeing how proud Austin was of everything he’s accomplished. There’s something about walking through the places where you worked so hard, knowing you’ve reached your goals, that’s incredibly special. Capturing that feeling—the pride, the reflection, the excitement for what’s next—is what makes senior portraits so rewarding.
GCU’s campus provided the perfect mix of inspiration and familiarity for this session. From the iconic GCU signs to the beautiful landscaping and academic buildings, every corner of the campus felt like it had a story to tell. And Austin, with his easy smile and genuine personality, brought those stories to life in a way that felt meaningful and unique.
If you’re considering a senior portrait session in Phoenix, locations like GCU are an amazing option. It’s one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona, 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.
Austin, thank you for letting me document this chapter of your life! Your determination, personality, and enthusiasm for the future made this session unforgettable. I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do as you dive into your career—you’re going to crush it!

Jackson Paradise Valley High Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
Jackson’s senior portrait session at the Desert Botanical Garden was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this was going to be a day filled with fun, laughter, and some seriously epic photos. Jackson, a Class of 2025 senior from Paradise Valley High, brought not only his great sense of style but also his relaxed, authentic personality. It made every shot feel true to who he is—and that’s what senior portraits are all about!
The Desert Botanical Garden was an inspired choice for this session. If you’ve ever been, you know how stunning it is. The unique mix of towering cacti, colorful blooms, and desert landscapes creates a backdrop that feels so quintessentially Arizona. On this cool and sunny fall day, we had the kind of light photographers dream of. It was soft and golden, perfect for those backlit natural light portraits that make everything glow.
What I loved most about this session was how much Jackson leaned into being himself. He brought outfits that weren’t just trendy or formal for the sake of it. They were him. A mix of comfortable yet stylish pieces that reflected his laid-back vibe perfectly. We’re talking clothes he’d actually wear—nothing stuffy or overly formal that would feel out of place. This gave the photos an effortless, genuine feel, which made all the difference. As we wandered through the garden, Jackson had this ease about him that made the session so enjoyable. Some seniors can be a little camera-shy (totally normal!), but Jackson just went with the flow. He nailed every pose without even trying, whether it was a thoughtful gaze off into the distance or a quick, casual smile. There’s something about capturing those natural, unforced moments that makes a senior portrait session feel extra special.
We played with the light a lot during this session, and oh man, that glow was everything! Backlit portraits were stunning, with the sun streaming through the desert plants and highlighting every detail. But we didn’t stop there. We added flash for a few dramatic shots, creating that perfect balance between soft natural tones and bold, impactful images. It’s always fun to experiment with light and create a variety of looks in a single session.
The Desert Botanical Garden gave us so much to work with. One minute we were surrounded by giant saguaros, and the next, we were in a more intimate corner with soft greenery and pops of color. We were there right before Christmas and the special art exhibit “LIGHT BLOOM” by HYBYCOZO featuring stunning geometric light installations that we could walk into and around, they were stunning even in the daytime. Each spot brought something new, and Jackson owned every single shot. It’s always amazing to see how much personality can come through when a senior feels comfortable and confident in their session.
Senior year is such a huge milestone, and documenting it in a way that feels authentic is so important. For Jackson, this wasn’t just about getting great photos—it was about celebrating who he is right now. His personality, his style, his journey. That’s what senior portraits should capture.
If you’re planning your own senior portrait session, locations like the Desert Botanical Garden are an incredible choice. It’s one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona, offering endless variety and a uniquely Phoenix vibe. Pair that with outfits that feel true to you, and you’re guaranteed photos you’ll love forever.
Jackson, thank you for trusting me with this milestone! Your easygoing nature and genuine personality made this session such a joy. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish after graduation.

Joahua Mountain ridge Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
The golden Arizona sun, a sharp-dressed senior, and the timeless beauty of the Peoria Desert—Joshua’s senior mini session was everything you could want in a portrait shoot and more! This Mountain Ridge High School senior brought his A-game, and we had the best time capturing these milestone moments. It’s not every day you get to work with someone who’s so laid-back yet absolutely owns every shot.
We met up in the Peoria Desert, which always sets the stage beautifully for senior portrait sessions. The desert has this understated magic—wide open spaces, natural textures, and that incredible light Arizona is known for. Joshua arrived ready to go with two looks that perfectly balanced his personality. His first outfit was a sharp, formal vibe—tailored, polished, and perfect for those classic graduation portraits. His second look was a bit more relaxed, with a casual button-up that still said, “I’m ready to take on the world.” It was the best of both worlds!
The light that day was simply stunning. Late afternoon in the desert gives you that soft, backlit glow that makes everything pop. And oh man, did Joshua glow! Whether he was looking serious in his formal outfit or cracking a smile in the casual look, that golden light wrapped around him like a spotlight. But we didn’t just rely on the sun—we added a little flash to create some truly epic shots. It was all about balance. The natural light gave us those warm, timeless portraits, while the flash brought a dramatic, magazine-worthy flair to a few key moments.
What stood out to me most about Joshua was how effortlessly cool and chill he was during the session. Some seniors can be a little nervous in front of the camera (which is totally normal!), but Joshua made it look easy. His confidence was quiet but powerful, and his poses felt natural—never forced. You could see how comfortable he was in his own skin, and that’s exactly what senior portraits should capture.
Joshua’s session wasn’t just about taking pictures—it was about celebrating who he is at this moment in his life. Senior year is such a huge milestone, and it deserves to be documented in a way that feels authentic and meaningful. Whether it’s through a formal pose or a candid laugh, every photo tells a story.
If you’re a senior (or a parent of one!) and wondering where to take your senior pictures in Phoenix, let me just say: my favorite spot in the Peoria Desert is one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona. It’s versatile, stunning, and has this way of making everyone look incredible. Whether you’re going for formal, casual, or something totally unique, it’s the perfect spot to capture your personality and your journey.
Joshua, thank you for trusting me to capture this milestone moment. Your confidence, chill vibes, and style made this session unforgettable. I can’t wait to see what amazing things you’ll do after graduation—you’ve got such a bright future ahead!

James and Jonathan SDOHS Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
The session was on a perfect Arizona fall days—sunny but cool enough to keep us comfortable as we headed out to the Peoria Desert for a senior portrait session that was as unique as it was fun. James and Jonathan, twins from Sandra Day O’Connor High School’s Class of 2025, brought their laid-back charm, their sweet pup, and a whole lot of personality to the shoot. These guys were born with best friends for life, and even though they follow different pursuits they always have that brothers bond to carry them thru senior year and beyond.
The desert backdrop was stunning as always. There’s just something about those wide-open spaces, rugged textures, and that soft golden light filtering through the mesquite trees that sets the perfect stage for senior pictures. Add in James and Jonathan’s chill personalities, their variety of outfits, and even a few athletic props, and you’ve got yourself a session full of variety and storytelling. Bringing their adorable dog just sealed the deal!
James and Jonathan thought of the perfect outfits. They each brought three looks—everything from casual, everyday styles to slightly more polished options. A highlight was Jonny’s lacrosse gear and James’ track shoes. Incorporating their sports into the session not only added a personal touch but also showcased their unique interests and passions. I always love it when seniors bring props that represent who they are—it makes the photos so authentic.
There’s something so special about photographing siblings, especially twins. James and Jonathan had this easy, natural connection that made the entire session feel effortless. Whether they were joking around, giving each other a hard time (as brothers do), or simply standing side by side, their personalities just shone through.
We started with some dreamy backlit shots, letting the natural light wrap around them for those soft, glowing portraits everyone loves. But we also brought out the flash to create some bold, dynamic images that added a bit of drama to the scene. I mean, if you’re going to the desert for senior portraits, why not go all in for those epic shots?
Their pup was the unexpected star of the day! There’s something so sweet about adding a furry friend to a photo session. Not only did their dog bring even more personality to the shoot, but they also helped break the ice and added a playful energy to the whole experience.
Senior year is such a big milestone, and James and Jonathan are clearly ready to take on the world—each in their own way. They’re not just incredibly talented athletes but also genuinely kind, fun, and full of life. Capturing this moment for them, knowing it’s just the beginning of all the amazing things they’re going to do, was such a privilege.
For anyone reading this and thinking, "Where should I take senior pictures in Phoenix?" or "What makes a session truly special?"—this is it. It’s about choosing a location that reflects your personality (the Peoria Desert was perfect for these guys), bringing items that represent your journey, and letting your true self shine through. Whether it’s lacrosse sticks, track shoes, a favorite outfit, or even a furry companion, the details make all the difference.
If you’re a senior (or a mom of one) looking for affordable senior pictures in Arizona, I’d love to help you create something just as unique and fun. Every session is tailored to highlight who you are, and we’ll make sure you feel confident, comfortable, and—most importantly—like yourself.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s find the perfect spot—whether it’s the Peoria Desert, a lush garden, or somewhere completely unexpected—and make some magic happen. You’ll leave with high-quality portraits and memories that will last a lifetime.
James and Jonathan, thank you for bringing your A-game to this session. Your humor, chill vibes, and love for your pup made this day unforgettable. Here’s to finishing senior year strong and chasing your dreams. I can’t wait to see what’s next for you both!

Remy Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
TRACK: Neon Desert By Coma Svensson
Meet Remy, a Class of 2025 senior who traveled all the way from the Pacific Northwest to sunny Arizona for his senior pictures. Remy has big dreams of becoming a SunDevil, so it made perfect sense for him to choose the ASU campus as the backdrop for his senior portraits. ASU is hands down ( or Forks Up) one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona! Between the mix of modern architecture, lush green spaces, and that signature desert sunshine, it’s a photographer’s dream.
When Remy’s mom reached out to book his senior pictures, I couldn’t wait to plan a session that captured both his laid-back personality and his excitement about ASU. We started near Old Main – one of the most iconic spots at ASU. The historic brick building, with its gorgeous landscaping and sprawling lawns, was the perfect backdrop to kick off the session. Remy’s easygoing personality shone through right away. This guy is cool, confident, and just plain fun to be around!
Mom wanted to schedule during winter break when they were visiting- and again I have to say breaks are the PERFECT time for campus photos. No lines for iconic spots, and no crowds in the background of your photos.
One of my favorite things about working with seniors is seeing their personalities come to life in front of the camera. And Remy? He made my job so easy! He brought a mix of outfits that perfectly reflected who he is. From a classic button-down for those timeless shots to a casual ASU ball cap and sweaters, every look was on point. His confidence, paired with his sweet and grounded personality, made for some seriously authentic and dynamic shots.
Coming to Arizona for his senior pictures was such a cool way to celebrate his SunDevil dreams. The contrast between his PNW roots and the sunny Arizona setting made this session so special. It’s not every day you get to photograph someone who traveled across states for their senior pictures – talk about dedication!
And let’s talk about that Arizona sunshine for a second. 🌞 While we had plenty of bright light to work with, the golden hour on campus was pure perfection. The way the light wrapped around Remy in those final shots of the day? Absolutely magical.
Senior pictures are more than just photos. They’re a celebration of who you are right now – your journey, your dreams, and everything that makes you you. Remy’s session reminded me of just how special this milestone is.
Watching him light up as he talked about his plans for ASU and capturing that excitement in his portraits was so rewarding. This wasn’t just about taking pictures; it was about telling his story.
Thinking About Your Own Senior Pictures?
If you’re searching for “senior portraits near me” or wondering where to book your session, I’d love to help! Whether you’re a local or traveling from out of state like Remy, I’m here to make your session unforgettable.
From finding the best places to take senior photos in Arizona to helping you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, my goal is to capture you. Your personality. Your story.
Tips for an Amazing Senior Portrait Session
Bring outfits that reflect your style – Just like Remy did, mix it up with casual, formal, and fun pieces.
Incorporate your interests – Whether it’s a favorite shirt, a prop, or a hobby, these personal touches make your photos unique.
Choose a meaningful location – ASU was perfect for Remy because of his SunDevil dreams. Let’s pick a spot that feels special to you!
Relax and have fun! – The best photos happen when you’re just being yourself.
A Big Thank You to Remy
Remy, thank you for trusting me with your senior portraits and for bringing so much fun and energy to your session. Watching you embrace your SunDevil dreams and capturing this exciting moment in your life was such an honor. You’re going to do amazing things at ASU and beyond – I just know it!

Justin Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
Justin’s senior portrait session was one of the most unique shoots I’ve done this year! This Class of 2025 senior at Centennial High, he wanted something totally different—something that would reflect his style and personality and passions while being fun and memorable. Together we made it happen! We started the session at the West-MEC Big Rig campus and wrapped things up in the desert with some incredible shots featuring his car and smoke grenades. It was such a blast, and Justin absolutely nailed every moment. 🚛🌵
I always ask seniors their favorite kind of music or artist, so I can match their vibe with the artists I find on Epidemic Sound. For Justin I found the perfect fit with a track by Def Lev https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/V5NSEzbhfu/
The day started at West-MEC, and if you haven’t been there before, it’s such a cool location! The Big Rig campus has this industrial, rugged vibe that’s perfect for senior guys who want something more unique and edgy for their photos. The big trucks and equipment provided some amazing backdrops that made Justin’s session stand out. He brought a mix of casual and sharp outfits, which worked perfectly with the vibe of the location. His first look—his school work shirt and jeans—was so classic. Great choice for the West-MEC setting. We got shots of him leaning against a rig, looking confident and cool. These photos totally proved that senior pictures don’t have to be awkward or boring for guys. They can be fun and reflect who you are!
Justin’s personality shone through the whole session. He’s got this laid-back, chill vibe but also a fun, adventurous side, and we captured both. He joked about how he was a little nervous at first, but honestly, you’d never know it. By the time we got to his second outfit he was totally in his element. He even got some candid shots laughing and just hanging out near one of the rigs. I love how these moments turned out because they’re so authentic.
After wrapping up at West-MEC, we headed out to a desert loop in North Phoenix for the second half of the session. This was where Justin’s car came into play—and wow, what a cool feature to include! For any guys out there wondering if senior photos are “your thing,” bringing in something personal, like a car, can make all the difference. It’s a way to make the session about you and showcase something you’re proud of. Justin’s car added so much personality to the shoot, and it gave us some amazing photo opportunities.
The desert location was perfect for golden-hour lighting. The warm end-of-summer afternoon gave us that soft, golden glow that makes everything look magical. Justin switched into his third outfit—another casual but sharp look that matched the desert vibes. We found the perfect spot to park his car with the mountains in the background, and the combination of the car, the setting sun, and the desert landscape was kick ass. Now- this spot we had permission to use. It’s an abandoned road with very little traffic on it and we had dad also further down watching out just in case. Don’t try parking in the middle of the street just anywhere!
And then came the smoke grenades! This part of the session was such a highlight. Smoke grenades are such a fun way to add drama and creativity to a shoot, and Justin was all in for it. We positioned the grenades safely around his car, and the smoke added this moody, cinematic effect that looked incredible against the desert backdrop. The way the colors swirled and caught the light—it was next-level. Justin stood by his car with the smoke billowing around him, and he looked like he stepped out of an action movie poster. Seriously, these shots were unforgettable.
I think what made this session so special was how much it reflected Justin’s personality. From the industrial vibe at West-MEC to the adventurous feel of the desert, every part of the session told a little piece of his story. And that’s what senior photos should be about—capturing who you are at this amazing milestone in your life. For Justin, it wasn’t just about the photos (though they turned out incredible!).

Alek, Anthem Prep Class of 2025 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
Last week, I had the best time with Alek at the Sonoran Mountain Preserve for his senior portrait session! Alek is an honor student at Anthem’s Great Hearts, and he brought such a cool, laid-back vibe to the session. His personality and handsome smile shines in every single photo!
The Sonoran Mountain Preserve is one of my favorite spots in Arizona for senior photos. The views are everything! The landscape has those iconic desert vibes that are so Arizona, with cacti scattered all around and mountains that stretch across the horizon. It's the kind of place that feels big and beautiful and it’s perfect for seniors who want a mix of epic backdrops with a relaxed atmosphere. This location is always at the top of my list when someone asks, "Where should I take my senior pictures?" because it’s perfect for those high-quality, timeless shots.
Alek arrived ready to make the most of his mini session with quick outfit changes. I love it when seniors bring their own style to the shoot! Alek brought a great mix of looks that showed off his personality perfectly. He was casual yet well-dressed, and the way he transformed a simple shirt with a blazer was such a smart move! (I always tell my seniors that layering is key if they want quick changes that don’t take up too much time!) It’s fun to see how just adding or swapping one piece can give a totally different vibe to the photos.
What really added that extra spark to Alek’s session, though, were the items he brought that were so personal to him. He brought along his tennis racket – his favorite, of course – and his go-to sweater from school. Incorporating personal items like these is one of the best ways to make a senior session unique. Each time Alek pulled out one of these items, his face would light up, and I could just see how meaningful these little pieces were to him. It reminded me of why I love these sessions so much; it’s about capturing who you are at this amazing milestone in life!
One of my favorite moments was when we got some shots of him with the desert sunset behind him. The way the light hit those mountains and cast a golden glow across the desert floor was unreal. That’s the magic of Arizona sunsets. There’s nothing like that glow to add warmth to photos, and Alek totally soaked it up – he was a natural! I could see his confidence come through, and it was such a cool transformation to watch.
I know finding the perfect photographer can feel a bit overwhelming. There are so many choices out there, and Phoenix photographers are definetly some of the best!!! You want to be sure the person behind the camera understands your vision. If you’re looking for a Phoenix senior photographer who can capture your unique style and personality, I’d love to work with you! The best part of these sessions is working with seniors to bring out their personality in ways that feel totally authentic and relaxed. That’s what we did with Alek, and I think his photos are going to bring back all the memories of his senior year for years to come.
Are you ready to capture your senior year in one of Arizona’s most beautiful locations? Whether you’re from SDOHS, Mountain Ridge, Liberty High, or even ASU Prep, I’d love to help you celebrate this time! There are so many incredible spots for senior photos in Arizona, and the Sonoran Mountain Preserve is just the start. Give me a shout to book your session, and let’s capture your story together!
Addie SDOHS Class of 2025 | Magical Senior Portrait Session at OdySea Aquarium | Arizona Senior Photographer
You guys!! I am SO excited to share this absolutely incredible senior portrait session with you!
🌟 Addie’s senior portrait session was one for the books! Before I dive into all the gorgeousness (pun totally intended! 😉), I have to give a huge shoutout to the amazing Yolanda Lake Hair and Makeup for making our girl look absolutely flawless while still feeling 100% like herself. When you have the right glam squad, magic happens! We started our adventure at the incredible Odysea Aquarium, and it was a dream come true. If you’re looking for a unique, jaw-dropping backdrop for senior photos, Odysea has it all: shimmering blue tanks, graceful sea creatures, and the perfect lighting that makes everyone look amazing. was literally THE perfect choice for her vibrant personality! As one of the best places to take senior photos in Arizona, this unique venue gave us such amazing variety - I mean, where else in Phoenix can you capture senior pictures with sharks swimming behind you?! Especially for a senior planning to study Marine Biology after graduation 🦈
Addie came prepared, too—five fabulous outfits, each showing a different side of her personality. She started with a sweet and simple look, then switched it up with some trendy pieces, which fit perfectly with the aquarium’s vibrant, underwater world. Each change brought out something new in her, and it was so much fun capturing every bit of her playful, bright spirit. We had the best time wandering through the exhibits, catching magical moments with the clownfish (found Nemo!), watching the playful otters, and capturing some seriously frame-worthy shots by the stunning anemone displays.
We started the session with Addie’s first outfit in front of the floor-to-ceiling tank, and wow… what a stunner!! With the graceful sharks gliding by, the anemones swaying, and colorful clownfish darting around, Addie looked like she was in her own magical underwater scene. The aquarium lighting created this beautiful, soft glow on her, adding a dreamy vibe to her photos. Her dress was a simple white, which contrasted so beautifully with the blues and greens of the tanks. Absolute magic!
Moving through Odysea, we found endless unique spots. There was a tank of otters that stole Addie’s heart—and mine too! She looked so cute laughing and watching them swim. I snapped a few candid shots as she was mesmerized by the otters. It was such an authentic moment, capturing her joy and sense of wonder. These are the kind of memories you just can’t plan for, but they turn out to be some of the best shots.
After we wrapped up at Odysea, we headed to our second location: The Boardwalks Carousel and Talking Stick Golf Course. And let me tell you, this place at sunset is just something else. The willow trees and the way the setting sun bathes everything in a warm, glowy light… it's a whole vibe! Addie wore two outfits in this spot: striking green shift, then a playful golden dress that was perfect for the setting, and as soon as she stepped out, I knew we were going to get some epic shots.
We found a little spot by the willow trees, and the way the branches framed her was just picture-perfect. Addie laughed, twirled, and really soaked in the moment, and that’s exactly what made these photos come alive. There’s just something about sunset sessions that add a little extra magic.
Looking back, I think my favorite part of the session was seeing how Addie’s confidence grew with each outfit and each shot. She started out a little shy but quickly warmed up, and by the time we got to Talking Stick, she was posing like a pro, completely in her element. That’s one of the best parts about senior sessions: watching these young women step into their power and own the moment. It’s not just about photos—it’s about capturing who they are at this incredible milestone in their lives.
I can’t say enough about how amazing it was to capture Addie’s senior photos at both Odysea Aquarium and Talking Stick Golf Course. The locations gave us such a rich variety of backdrops, each one more beautiful than the last. I honestly believe Arizona has some of the best places to take senior photos, from unique spots like aquariums to stunning outdoor venues at sunset. These are the places that turn a photo session into an unforgettable experience.
If you’re looking for the best senior pictures or want to find senior pictures near you that truly capture who you are, I’d love to chat! There’s something special about crafting a session that tells a senior’s story, especially in the vibrant and unique places Arizona has to offer. Whether it’s finding that dream spot on Roosevelt Row or creating a magical scene at Odysea, we’re here to make it happen.
To all the seniors out there dreaming of photos that are a bit different, let’s talk! I’m here to help you find the perfect location, pick outfits that make you feel amazing, and capture memories that last a lifetime. From Sandra Day O’Connor High School to Mountain Ridge and Liberty High, I love working with students from all over Phoenix, North Peoria, and beyond.
Addie, thank you for bringing your joyful spirit and style to this session. Here’s to all the big dreams and amazing adventures waiting for you after graduation. You absolutely rocked it!
And that’s a wrap! 📸✨ Ready to capture your own unique senior portrait session? Reach out and let’s make magic happen. Whether it’s an aquarium adventure or a golden hour moment in the desert, I’m here to make sure your senior photos reflect the amazing person you are.
Emerson Class of 2025 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY
Emerson, from the class of 2025 at Rancho Salano High School, recently made the big move from Atlanta to Arizona. And let me tell you, she has embraced it all—both the soccer field and the wide-open beauty of the desert. When she showed up for her senior session, she was ready to shine, bringing along five different outfits that each told a little part of her story. It was like seeing a snapshot of her personality in every look.
We kicked off the session with her in this super sweet, casual combo: a simple white top and jeans. It was the perfect start—timeless, relaxed, and totally Emerson. She was so natural in front of the camera, laughing and having a great time. The jeans paired with the Arizona desert made for a perfect backdrop. She fit right in, like the desert was her second home now. Emerson had a plan to have some barefoot portraits to express carefree spirit.
Then came her blue jumper—such a cute look! The jumper had this cool, casual vibe that Emerson carried off effortlessly. She looked like she belonged in one of those dreamy fashion campaigns where everything seems fun and carefree. We found a spot with some desert greenery to bring out the contrast between her outfit and the landscape. It was picture-perfect. Emerson was full of smiles, and I think this was when she really hit her stride in front of the camera.
One of the coolest moments? That denim tank dress paired with her brand-new red boots. These boots were special—they were a gift from her parents when she got accepted to the University of Arizona. She was clearly proud, and they just popped against the desert sand. This outfit had that perfect mix of laid-back and bold. The boots, with their bright red, were a statement all on their own. Emerson just strutted through the desert like it was her personal runway. The look was all her—a mix of her past, her present, and the exciting future waiting for her at U of A.
Next up, Emerson stepped out in the cutest pink mini shift skirt with a hundred tiny hot pink bows. It was so fun and girly! You could tell this outfit was all about showing off her playful side. We found a spot under one of the Westwing Mountains where the light just streamed in perfectly, adding this golden glow that made her look even more radiant. She twirled, she posed, and she absolutely rocked it.
But the real magic came at sunset. Emerson slipped into a stunning red satin dress, and oh my goodness—what a stunner!! That dress against the Arizona sunset was a total vibe. The way the light hit the fabric, turning it almost into a glowing ember, was just breathtaking. Emerson looked incredible, standing there with the desert stretching out behind her, the mountains silhouetted against that blazing sky. It was a moment where everything just clicked—the dress, the colors, the setting, her confidence. You could see her future as bright as that sky.
Throughout the entire session, Emerson was nothing short of amazing- and in 110 degrees! She embraced the desert, the heat, and the little quirks that come with shooting outdoors. At one point, we were gently reminded that Arizona likes to throw in a surprise or two—she giggled her way through a breeze that tried to play with her hair, and when we weren’t dodging a few curious insects, we were chasing that perfect light. No matter what, she kept her spirits high and her smile even brighter.
Senior photos are all about capturing a moment in time, but for Emerson, they were more than that. These photos weren’t just about marking her senior year; they were about celebrating her transition—from life in Atlanta to finding her footing here in Arizona. She’s stepping into new opportunities, from her love of soccer to her new adventure at the University of Arizona, and each outfit reflected a piece of her journey. Whether she was in jeans, red boots, or that stunning satin dress, Emerson was capturing more than just a look—she was telling her story.
For anyone reading, senior photos are such an important way to celebrate who you are right now. They’re a reflection of all the hard work, dreams, and fun moments that have led to this point. Emerson’s session was a great reminder of that. She showed up with style, confidence, and a genuine excitement for the future, and that’s what these photos are all about.
I always say it’s about more than just taking pictures—it’s about capturing who you are in this moment. Emerson, with her love of soccer, her style, and her new desert home, showed exactly that. She’s got big things ahead, and her senior photos were just the start.
To all the seniors out there—let your photos reflect the person you are, the journey you’re on, and where you’re headed next. Emerson’s session at the Sonoran Preserve was the perfect blend of old and new, fun and fierce, casual and bold. Whether you’re a soccer player, a fashionista, or a little bit of both, make your senior photos your own.
And with that, Emerson’s session came to a close just as the sun dipped below the horizon. 📸✨ We had such a blast capturing all her different looks and vibes, from the casual cool of her jeans to the elegant drama of that red satin dress. Here’s to Emerson and all the incredible adventures coming her way! Cheers to a future as bright as that Arizona sunset. 🌅👗🎓

But Mooooom... When Senior Guys don't *think* they want a Senior Portrait Session - Phoenix Senior Photographer Anjeanette Photography
Senior year is a time of celebration, reflection, and capturing memories that will last a lifetime. For many moms, senior portraits are a cherished tradition, a way to freeze this fleeting moment in time. But what happens when your senior guy just isn’t into it? Many senior boys don’t care about photos, feel awkward in front of the camera, or think it’s not cool to care about senior portraits. This can create tension and frustration, especially for moms who value these keepsakes deeply.
I can honestly can tell you, Senior Guys sessions are my favorites- I love senior ladies but …some of my absolute best sessions have been for guys who didn’t think they wanted them, then turned into James Bond when they put on the suit mom “made” them wear. Most guys actually look forward to and enjoy their senior portraits, but they may not feel chatty about it. They have a lot of fun with them even if they feel uncertain at the beginning. theres this misconception that photo sessions are not hip with dudes- its not true even if they may tell each other that. Guys have just as many outfits, poses, and charm as the girls. I love it when guys bring a car, theirs or a friends. Or a jersey, or sword- seriously those sword session kick butt and are cool as heck. And if it is HIS idea…he will get into it mama!
I have seen this scenario at least a hundred times (no I am not exaggerating): You’ve booked a senior portrait session, chosen the perfect location, and even coordinated outfits. But your son, who could care less about photos, is dragging his feet. He feels awkward, self-conscious, and would rather be anywhere else than posing in front of a camera. He thinks showing enthusiasm for photos is like flexing, and he doesn’t want to come across as trying too hard. Meanwhile, you’re trying to make the best of it, but the session feels strained and uncomfortable.
Now, picture this frustration bubbling over. Your son’s reluctance turns into sullen behavior during the session. He’s uncooperative, his smile is forced, and the whole experience feels more like a chore than a celebration. As a mom, you’re heartbroken because you want these photos to reflect the joy and pride you feel for your son’s accomplishments. The tension between wanting perfect photos and respecting your son’s feelings can be overwhelming.
So, how do we bridge this gap? How do we turn a potentially stressful situation into a positive experience for senior guys and their parents? Here are some solutions that can make senior portrait sessions enjoyable and meaningful for everyone involved.
First and foremost, communication is key. Yeah I know I know, he def does NOT want to talk about it. so take a car ride and talk about it TO him, I promise he really is listening :)
Before the session, have an open conversation with your son about why these photos are important to you. Explain that senior portraits aren’t just about looking good; they’re about celebrating his journey and milestones. Share your feelings and listen to his concerns. Understanding each other’s perspectives can help ease some of the tension.
Next, consider a more relaxed approach to the session. Traditional portrait sessions can feel stiff and formal, which can be uncomfortable for someone who doesn’t like being in front of the camera. Keep the session short and sweet. My mini sessions are perfect for this, offering just enough time to capture a variety of shots without overwhelming your son. These shorter sessions are less intimidating and can be a great way to capture some fantastic shots without the pressure of a full-length session. They are designed to be quick and fun, ensuring that we get great photos without making it feel like a chore.
So, how can I help make this process smoother and more enjoyable for both you and your son? As an experienced photographer, I’ve worked with many seniors who were initially reluctant to have their photos taken. My goal is to make each session comfortable, fun, and tailored to the individual.
I understand that many senior guys feel uncomfortable or awkward in front of the camera. That’s why I take the time to get to know each client, ensuring that they feel relaxed and at ease during the session. We can start with simple poses and gradually move to more dynamic shots as your son becomes more comfortable. My experience has taught me how to bring out genuine smiles and capture the true essence of each senior.
One of the ways I make sessions enjoyable is by allowing your son to take the lead. Let him choose his outfits, even if they’re not what you would have picked. This gives him a sense of control and comfort, making the experience more enjoyable. Provide him with three location options unless he has his own ideas. This way, he feels involved in the planning process and more invested in the outcome. Now he may not have one clue or interest and you will need to pack his outfits, if he doesn’t care go for it! The point is to offer him the opportunity to make them what he wants.
If your son is into art, music, video games, sports or other activities, consider adding action as in my 2 hour Action Session. These sessions focus on capturing him doing what he loves, whether it’s playing basketball, D&D, skateboarding, or even playing an instrument. We go a place he feels good about: arcade, skate park, ball court. It’s a more dynamic and engaging way to showcase his personality and interests. Plus, he’ll feel more at ease in a familiar setting, doing something he enjoys.
During the session, I keep the atmosphere light and fun. Cracking jokes (even if they are super lame mom jokes like mine), playing his favorite music, or even bringing along a friend can help him relax. It’s all about creating a positive environment where he feels comfortable and can be himself. And remember, the goal isn’t to get the perfect posed shot but to capture his true spirit. Sometimes the best photos are the candid ones where he’s genuinely laughing or lost in thought.
Encourage your son to bring items that are meaningful to him. Whether it’s a sports jersey, a musical instrument, or a skateboard, incorporating personal elements can make the session more enjoyable and the photos more authentic. It’s a great way to showcase his unique personality and interests.
Finally, remind your son that these photos aren’t just for him—they’re for you too. Explain that having these memories captured is a gift that will mean the world to you. Sometimes, framing it as a way to make mom happy can be the extra motivation he needs to put in a bit of effort. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about making memories together.
Additionally, consider letting your son bring along someone who makes him feel at ease. Whether it’s dad, an older sibling, or a significant other, having a familiar face nearby can help him feel more relaxed and natural during the session. I have seen dudes light up for a significant other, especially if that person is into photos!! If he feels more comfortable without you being there, it’s okay to wait in the car or at home. This isn’t personally directed at you- often the guys who care about their moms the MOST are the ones most self-concious in front of them! They want to feel cool, and thats hard to do if a mom is there sometimes. Once i had a mom standing over my shoulder asking for his “real smile, like when you were in the 3rd grade and dumped ice cream on your lap!” eek! I know YOU wouldn’t do that mom. We can try starting it with you there, bring a friend of his, and if its not feeling good or getting the results you want, pop out for a water run or something! The goal is to create an environment where he can be himself, and he is growing up and wants portraits that reflect the man he is becoming.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to make the most of your senior portrait session:
Start with a Conversation: Discuss the importance of senior portraits and listen to your son’s concerns. Understanding each other’s perspectives can help ease tension.
Plan Together: Let your son choose his outfits and provide him with a few location options. This gives him a sense of control and makes him feel more comfortable.
Choose the Right Session: Consider a mini session or an action session tailored to his interests. These shorter, more dynamic sessions can make the experience more enjoyable.
Keep It Light: Create a fun and relaxed atmosphere during the session. Play his favorite music, crack jokes, and keep things light-hearted.
DO NOT MAKE HIM SMILE. I will ask, I run through a few poses and I direct prompts like “look at me, no smile, look to the left, chin down- look up at me” and then when the awkward warm up phase is over I do ask seniors to laugh at me- its weird, its dumb, they tell me so- and I encourage them to try it or give me a sift smile. I dont push it or force it. A forced smile is exactly that. Eventually by the end of the session he usually feel comfortable sharing a few smiles, even as a way to get it over with!
Incorporate Personal Elements: Encourage your son to bring items that reflect his personality and interests. This makes the photos more authentic and meaningful.
Bring a Friend or Family Member: Having someone he’s comfortable with can help him relax and enjoy the session. If he prefers, you can wait nearby or at home.
Focus on Candid Shots: Sometimes the best photos are the unplanned, candid moments. Encourage your son to be himself, and capture those genuine smiles and expressions. Cinematic photos where he is not looking into the camera, like in a movie poster.
Consider offering a faster ending IF he can cooperate until we get the needed shots! This wont effect the price, but if its a real dread offer to him that if the photographer gets the shots she needs for your photos we can end the session faster. This makes a mini session even mini-ier for him. and while this still has the same session fee, if he knows he can get ‘out of it’ faster we may get everything we need really fasy and in a happier fashion!
Do It for Mom: Remind your son that these photos are a gift to you as well. Framing it as a way to make mom happy can be a great motivator. He really does love you, even if he def doesn’t love photos.
I often have guys tell me “thats wasn’t as bad as I thought” or “that didn’t suck too bad” and even “that was a little fun actually”. High praise from a guy that was not looking forward to his session. A lot of guys secretly love it and I can tell!
By following these steps, you can turn a potentially stressful experience into a positive and enjoyable one. Senior portraits are about celebrating this important milestone and capturing your son’s true spirit.

Dante SDOHS Class of 2022 | senior pictures near me Peoria AZ Senior Graduation Pictures by Phoenix Arizona Photographer Anjeanette Photography
What an unforgettable afternoon capturing Dante’s senior portrait session in the picturesque North Phoenix desert! Dante, a standout from Sandra Day O’Connor High School and the homecoming king, brought so much energy and charm to his session. His natural charisma and enthusiasm made the whole experience incredibly fun and dynamic.
Dante's session was set against the stunning backdrop of the North Phoenix desert. The rugged beauty of the desert, with its vast expanses and dramatic rock formations, provided the perfect setting to capture his vibrant spirit and accomplishments. The landscape was breathtaking, and Dante’s confidence shone through in every shot.
One of the highlights of the session was talking to Dante share stories about his high school journey. Becoming homecoming king was a significant milestone for him, and you could see the pride in his eyes as he talked about spending that evening with his girlfriend, who he met in the EaglePride Marching Band at OC. We incorporated this achievement into the session, capturing his regal demeanor with the stunning desert landscape as a backdrop.
As we explored different areas of the desert, we found some incredible spots that added a unique charm to the photos. There was a rugged rocky area where the setting sun cast a warm, golden glow over everything. The way the light played with the shadows created a dreamy, almost magical atmosphere. Dante’s silhouette against the sunset was absolutely mesmerizing, adding a touch of serenity and contemplation to the session.
Dante also brought along a few personal items that were meaningful to him, including his Sandra Day O’Connor cap and gown with many academic achievement cords and honor society stolle.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, the sky transformed into a canvas of vibrant oranges and pinks. We wrapped up the session with a few final shots, capturing the last rays of sunlight.
Dante, your senior portrait session was an absolute delight! Your charisma, energy, and positivity made every moment unforgettable. Keep shining and chasing your dreams. Your future is incredibly bright, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll achieve. You’re a star! 🌟

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! 🌟

Tyler & Cam's Senior Prom mini sesh! | Phoenix Prom Photographer Anjeanette Photography
I can't wait to share this sweet mini senior prom portrait sesh of Tyler and Kam at Rio Salado Park. These Cactus High School seniors were on their way to the "Time of the Century" prom at the Martin Car Museum, and their excitement was contagious!
Tyler, a football and lacrosse player, and Kam, his talented girlfriend, have been together for quite a while. Their chemistry is undeniable. They’ve even shared the stage at the Del E. Webb Center for the Performing Arts in productions like The Lion King and Fiddler on the Roof. Talk about a power couple!
Rio Salado Park provided the perfect backdrop for their portraits. The greenery always desired in AZ, the serene water, and the soft evening light made every shot magical. Kam looked stunning in her elegant lavender dress, and Tyler was dapper in his purple suit. They even had matching painted nails like the rockstars they are! Both were beaming, and you could tell they were ready to make some unforgettable memories.
One of my favorite moments was capturing the candid shots. Tyler and Kam were laughing, holding hands, maybe a butt was grabbed I won’t tell, and just enjoying each other’s company. Those genuine smiles and the way they looked at each other were priceless. It's these moments that truly capture the essence of their relationship.
As the session progressed, we moved to the trestle bridge where the sunset was just starting to cast a golden glow over the park. This light was a whole vibe! Kam’s dress shimmered, and Tyler’s suit took on a warm hue. They looked like they had stepped out of a fairy tale. We played with some fun poses, and they were totally game for everything. Love it!
One particularly memorable shot was by the water’s edge. Tyler picked up Kam, and they both laughed as I captured the moment. The reflection of the sunset in the water added a magical touch of glitter to the photo. These spontaneous, joyful moments are what make portrait sessions so special.
As the sun dipped lower, we wrapped up the session with a few more poses, capturing the last bits of daylight. Tyler had some pose ideas, specifically he wanted some with Kam wearing his suit jacket and after I asked him to softly kiss the top of her head I knew I had THE shot of the night!
Tyler and Kam, your prom portrait session was an absolute joy! Your connection and the fun we had made it a memorable experience. Keep shining and making memories together. You both have such bright futures ahead, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll achieve. 🌟
For everyone reading, if you’re considering a senior prom mini portrait session, Rio Salado Park is a fantastic choice. The natural beauty and versatility of the location make it perfect 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! 📸✨

There's fire, and there's FIRE | Indoor studio sessions for summer: Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
Hey everyone! Let’s talk about why senior photos in a studio are so chic and totally trending right now! 📸✨ I know, I know, the thought of studio photos might bring back memories of those awkward school photo sessions with weird props and stiff poses. But trust me, my studio sessions are NOTHING like that! We're all about capturing your unique style and making sure you look fab.
First off, studio photos are super fashionable. They give off this sleek, modern vibe that's just perfect for senior portraits. The controlled lighting in a studio means we can create all sorts of cool looks, from soft and dreamy to bold and dramatic. Natural lighting and or strobe flash. It's all about showcasing your personality and making you look like a total stunner!
And let's be real, Arizona summers are HOT. When the temperature hits over 95 degrees, there's no way we’re doing an outdoor shoot. Here’s why I only do studio sessions when it's blazing outside:
Safety First: We don’t want anyone getting heatstroke. It's serious business. Staying indoors means everyone stays cool and safe.
Skin Matters: Greasy, shiny skin from sweat? Not cute. And trust me, it shows up in photos, highlighting every bump and texture. In the studio, your skin stays fresh and flawless.
Makeup Meltdown: Even with the best setting spray, makeup can melt right off in the heat. In the studio, your makeup stays put, keeping you looking fabulous throughout the session.
Fresh Faces: Heat can make your eyes and face look tired. We want bright, vibrant expressions, not the look of someone who just ran a marathon!
Equipment Overheat: My camera gear does not love the heat. Keeping everything cool ensures we get the best shots without any technical hiccups.
Now, I do have a small studio space in North Phoenix, but there are some amazing studio options in Phoenix. Each place has its own vibe and unique charm. TO NAME A FEW:
Studio House AZ, Downtown Phoenix: This spot has such an urban, artsy feel. Perfect for those looking to capture a bit of the city’s edge.
Parkwood Studios, Midtown Phoenix: A versatile space that can go from classic to contemporary in a heartbeat. This places looks like a Hollywood sesh. Love it!
Stone Studios, Mesa: Known for its rustic charm and natural light. If you’re into a more organic, laid-back look, this is your place.
Casa Peony, Scottsdale: Totally chic and glamorous. Ideal for those who want a touch of elegance in their photos.
And don’t worry, we’ve got some great options in Peoria and North Phoenix too. Wherever you are, there’s a fab studio nearby to make your senior photos pop!
I can’t stress enough how studio sessions can elevate your senior portraits. It’s all about capturing YOU in the best light (literally) and making sure your photos are as unique and awesome as you are. No awkward props, no outdated poses. Just pure, fashionable fun!
So, why are studio sessions so popular? It’s simple. They offer a controlled environment where we can play with lighting, backdrops, and your style to create photos that are totally YOU. Plus, we avoid all the hassle that comes with shooting in extreme heat. Trust me, once you go studio, you won’t look back!
If you’re ready to rock your senior portraits and create some stunning memories, let’s get in the studio and make some magic happen. Your senior year is a big deal, and your photos should be too. Can’t wait to see you shine! 🌟📸✨
Until next time, stay cool and keep slaying!

Ethan & Isabella! Perry High School Class of 2022 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
OMG, you guys, I had the most amazing time shooting senior portraits for Ethan and Isabella! These Perry High School Class of 2022 grads chose the “two-hour Action package” and let me tell you, it was action-packed! 🎉
We kicked things off on top of the world, literally. The rooftop of the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Phoenix gave us the most incredible views. Ethan and Isabella started in their sharp formal wear, looking absolutely dapper. Ethan rocked a suit, and Isabella was stunning in her dress. Love it!
As we moved through downtown, their personalities started to shine. The outfits changed, and so did the vibes. We strolled past the Orpheum, which was just epic. The historic architecture combined with these two looking all stylish was a whole vibe. And those tall buildings surrounded by palm trees? Perfect backdrop!
The twins were so much fun to work with. They’ve got this great sibling dynamic that’s both hilarious and heartwarming. Ethan’s got this cool, laid-back style, while Isabella is all about that chic, trendy look. Together, they made every shot a masterpiece. 📸
We had some seriously funny moments. At one point, I told Ethan to give Isabella a piggy back ride. Isabella’s reaction was priceless, and Ethan couldn’t stop laughing. It’s those unexpected moments that make these sessions so memorable.
Walking through uptown, we found some amazing spots. The mix of urban and natural elements was just perfect for capturing their senior year vibes. We even found this cute little café with the best mural. The colors popped so much, and it matched Isabella’s outfit perfectly. Talk about serendipity!
By the end of our session, we were all a bit tired but so happy with how everything turned out. The twins’ personalities and styles were captured perfectly, and we made some amazing memories along the way. Their senior portraits are more than just photos; they’re a celebration of who they are and all they’ve accomplished. 🎓
Isabella and Ethan, you both rocked this session! Keep shining and being your awesome selves. The world is ready for you, and I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do next. Here’s to new adventures and endless possibilities! 🌟
A huge thank you to Ethan and Isabella for choosing me to capture these moments. You two are stars, and your photos turned out amazing! Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you both. Here’s to the Class of 2022! 🎉📸✨
Alright, friends, that’s a wrap on Ethan and Isabella’s senior session! Stay tuned for more awesome senior stories and gorgeous photos. Until next time, keep shining! 🌟💕

Ricky Mountain Ridge High Class of 2022 |
Shooting Ricky’s senior portraits was such an adventure! 🌟 The day turned out to be one of the hottest spring days, and let me tell you, it was scorching. But the lush, green surroundings were so stunning that we didn’t even mind the heat and Ricky didn’t let em see she sweat. It was like stepping into a wonderland at Rio Salado Park with the water features, tall trees, grassy paths and wildflowers. A very un-Arizona oasis.
Ricky is graduating from Mountain Ridge High School, Class of 2022, and she has the most amazing spirit. She's decided to take a gap year after high school, which I think is such a smart move. Finals, activities, winter guard, color guard with the marching band—she was involved in so much! I am not sure she was initially excited about senior portraits even because this kid was suffering some serious burnout after a long year. It makes total sense to take a breather. Plus, she might want to explore medical careers after her break. How cool is that?
The vibe of the shoot was seriously on point. After realizing Senior pictures can be FUN Ricky started enjoying herself, and she had picked out the coolest boho outfits that totally matched her free spirit and unique aesthetic. Each outfit was like a new chapter in her story. From sweet dresses to striped wide legged pants, everything just screamed Ricky. And the way she posed! Like a natural. It was like she’d been modeling her whole life.
During the shoot, we talked about her plans and dreams. Taking a gap year is such a great idea, especially after the intense last few years. Ricky’s got big dreams and taking time to recharge and explore is so important. Maybe she'll end up in the medical field, helping people and making a difference. With her determination, I know she’ll succeed in whatever she chooses.
The location we picked was perfect. The greenery and natural beauty provided a perfect backdrop. The contrast of Ricky’s boho outfits against the lush scenery was pure magic. Every shot was a hit, capturing her essence and joy. And let's not forget the weather. It was 108 degrees with crazy humidity. But Ricky handled it like a champ, smiling through the convection oven waves. 🌞 the photos do not show the heat except the heat of how awesome she looked!
Golden hour light at the end of the session gave everything a magical glow. Ricky was absolutely radiant, the warm tones highlighting her features and making her look like a goddess. This glow is a whole vibe! 🌅
We also had a bit of fun with smoke grenades. Ricky wanted to check out the Grand Street murals down the street so we fired up a red one and she danced through the smoke blooms. these grenades are epic- I love them and seeing how each senior uniquely interacts with them while I snap away to create kick ass portraits.
By the end of the shoot, we were all exhausted but so happy with how everything turned out. Ricky’s senior portraits are more than just photos—they’re memories. They capture a moment in time, a milestone, and the beginning of a new chapter.
I’m so proud of Ricky and can’t wait to see what she does next. Whether she’s traveling the world during her gap year or diving into medical studies, she’s got a bright future ahead. Ricky, you’re a total star! 🌟 Keep shining and chasing your dreams. The world is yours for the taking, and I know you’ll do amazing things.
Thanks for letting me be part of this special moment in your life. Your photos turned out stunning, and I hope you love them as much as I do. Here’s to new adventures, unforgettable moments, and making dreams come true! 📸✨
Alright, friends, that’s a wrap on Ricky’s senior session! I can’t wait to share these beautiful moments with you all. Stay tuned for more awesome senior stories and gorgeous photos. Until next time, keep shining!

Alexis Class of 2022 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Senior Photographer
Alexis, from Estrella Foothills High School, wanted her senior portraits to be as unique and vibrant as she is. So, we decided to head downtown to Roosevelt Row. It’s the perfect spot with its artistic vibes and cool urban backdrop. Alexis came prepared with two sets of outfits—some chosen by her mom and others reflecting her own edgy style. Plus, she brought along her ukulele for some fun and creative shots with smoke grenades at sunset. Talk about an exciting mix!
We kicked things off in the heart of Roosevelt Row, where the street art and murals are nothing short of spectacular. Alexis rocked her mom-approved outfits, which were chic and classy, fitting right into the lively, colorful surroundings. The contrast between her outfits and the vibrant murals made for some stunning photos. She looked effortlessly stylish, her smile lighting up every frame. We had so much fun exploring different spots, finding new angles and backdrops that made each photo unique.
Switching things up, Alexis then donned her own edgy outfits. These were bold, expressive, and totally her. She looked amazing! Her confidence shone through as she posed with the urban art, blending right into the creative atmosphere of Roosevelt Row. These outfits brought out a different side of her personality, adding a cool, rebellious touch to the photos. And let’s not forget her ukulele! This was such a fun prop, adding a playful element to the shoot. We found some great spots where Alexis could strum a few tunes, looking like a rockstar against the urban landscape.
As the sun started to set, we moved to a spot perfect for the grand finale—the smoke grenade photos. This part was so exciting! Alexis pulled out her ukulele, and we got the smoke grenades ready. The colorful smoke swirling around her created an almost magical scene. The combination of the setting sun, the vibrant smoke, and Alexis with her ukulele was simply breathtaking. Each photo captured the essence of her creativity and free spirit. She looked incredible, with the setting sun casting a warm glow over everything, making the colors pop even more.
Throughout the session, Alexis was a natural in front of the camera. Her bubbly personality and enthusiasm made the whole process a joy. We laughed a lot, especially when we had to deal with a few unexpected challenges. At one point, a particularly bold pigeon decided to make a cameo in our shoot! Alexis took it all in stride, her laughter making for some candid, delightful shots.
Senior photos are such a special way to capture this pivotal time in life. For Alexis, these photos are more than just a celebration of her graduation; they’re a reflection of her journey, her passions, and her vibrant personality. Whether she was posing with street art, rocking her edgy outfits, or playing her ukulele amidst swirling smoke, each photo tells a part of her story.
For all the high school seniors and parents reading this, remember that senior photos should be a true reflection of who you are. Choose locations and outfits that mean something to you, and don’t be afraid to get creative! Alexis’s session is a perfect example of how much fun and meaningful senior photos can be when you let your personality shine through.
Looking back at the photos from that day, I can’t help but smile. Each image captures a different aspect of Alexis—from her stylish looks and confident poses to her playful side with the ukulele and smoke grenades. These photos are a celebration of who she is and all that she’s achieved. Alexis, you were an absolute star, and it was such a pleasure capturing these moments for you.
To all the seniors out there, make sure your photos show off who you are. Whether it’s a favorite hangout, a spot that inspires you, or an outfit that makes you feel amazing, let your senior photos be a true reflection of your unique journey. And most importantly, have fun with it! Your senior year is a time of celebration, and your photos should capture all the joy and excitement that comes with it.
And that’s a wrap! 📸✨ What an unforgettable session with Alexis. From the vibrant art of Roosevelt Row to the magical sunset with smoke grenades, it was a day filled with creativity, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Here’s to celebrating the end of high school and the amazing adventures ahead! Cheers to making memories that last a lifetime. 🌆🎸🎓
