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

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

— Labhandar Rós

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

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

Devin Class of 2021 | Anjeanette Photography Seniors Phoenix

Fantastic session with the amazing Devin! I'm not exaggerating when I say model material, poised and flawless while staying calm and easygoing even when surrounded by a ton of people also enjoying sunset sessions on the river as well as making her way in heels across a rocky beach.

Not to mention perfect outfit choices (yeah I just totally mentioned them) She smoothly fit 5 changes in which absolutely set the session to sparkle. Yes, I'm a cheesy as heck photo nerd- this session was so much fun to capture what photographer wouldn't be excited?!? That red top tho...ahhh!

Like a modern Eliza Bennet. <3

Devin knew she wanted a natural idyllic scene for her senior portraits so we drove a short distance from Phoenix to the Salt River area and Coonbluff campground in Mesa for images of glowing mesquite trees, romantic fields of gold at the foothills of the Arizona Superstition Mountains. Yet none of that could compare with Dev's flawless smile. I don't think I even spoke out loud very much this entire session because she was ready with authentic movements and poses that didn't look staged, fake, or posed. We just flowed from place to place while I enjoyed playing with the light and taking pictures.

Additionally, I had to thank Devin for creating my daughter's yearbook ad the previous year! I am a fellow yearbook enthusiast who adored my high school yearbook instructor and 4 years of making memories. Hopefully, I didn't go on too much about the old days of building a yearbook or bore her with dinosaur stories of a Land Before Photoshop (because we cut and paste with knives and Adobe Pagemaker was a brand new program on one of the very few computers at my school we were starting to tinker with! What's Pagemaker you ask- exactly. Think pre-pre-pre-Photoshop HA)

Enjoy your senior year Devin! It's definitely still pretty different than what most seniors expected their senior year to be like. Roll with the craziness and make the most of the experience- truly this generation is having a once in a lifetime

Thank you for choosing me as your senior photographer!

"Seventy-five years ago, a generation found the clarity and resolve needed to save the world. Another generation of young people is now on track to do the same.

We’re now witnessing the emergence of a new generation of equal moral importance: a Greatest Generation 2.0. This generation is seeing with clear eyes that they are living through yet another existential crisis that threatens all life on Earth: a global climate emergency, (not to mention the Coivd 19 Pandemic and possible second great depression)

Crisis that too many of their elders have chosen to ignore or deny.

But as the seas rise, so will this cohort of young people.

The best thing the rest of us can do is to help them win." -Jaimal Yogis

Took a few days off for the Project Lunacy photography conference sponsored by Shutter Magazine & Shutterfest created by Salvatore Cincotta Photography. There is always more to learn and new ways to grow by challenging your work as a photographer and artist through photography education, connecting with vendors, and networking with other professionals. I brought my own gear, but everyone also had an opportunity to use the Profoto B10 & B10 Plus - and while I love my Flashpoints it was nice to experiment with some other industry leaders in off-camera flash.

I had the chance to spend the first day in small groups at the Superstition Mountains with Sal himself, as well as ProPhoto reps and instructors, then spent day two soaking up Photoshop knowledge and gel lighting tips with instructor David Byrd. A fantastic way to get reinspired and amped up for part two of the fall & holiday season- and cannot WAIT to hone new techniques in this springs Senior season!

Where can you take senior pictures in the greater Phoenix area and beyond? This post is just lists of ideas for places and props for YOUR senior experience portraits with Anjeanette Photography! The best places are ones close to your heart, or even near your school campus- however, you can use these ideas to start brainstorming the perfect lo-cal.

Many are free or have a small park or org fees, there is a very small travel fee only if I travel over 30 mins, everything under that is included.

This is in no way an exhaustive list- so what have you always dreamed of for YOUR epic and stylish session???

Where can we NOT go?

No railroad tracks, no tresspassing, no middle of the road, no canals, no bars- yep been asked. Just not cool for a senior experience k? :)

Let's start planning! Tell me your ideas or ask for suggestions below:

For safety Parent or adult legal guardian required at all sessions :)

I fall in love with every project I am a part of- I am become emotional and professionally invested in capturing the memories of every client! Most family and senior sessions have full session galleries up and ready to view in less than 3 weeks. I always offer a 24 hour social media sneak peek to share with anyone you wish!

To look through portfolios and really consider what you want your family or senior images to look like- a photographers website or printed materials should show you what level of work to expect from them! 
What you see is what you get so find the style that perfectly matches what you want!
Budget so that you do not have to hire one whose photos you do not LOVE. Why? Few couples hang the graduation cake or cap and gown above the mantle, fewer still hand those items down to children and grandchildren. 

Photos memorizing your priceless moments are what you get to share and remember by as the years go by- they are treasures!

Is it worth it to get a bargain on photos if one is unhappy with the photos? Does the photographer have real client testimonials on view on their website & trusted sites like Google? How many sessions will that person photograph that day- is my session a priority? Is getting "free" photos worth it if I am unhappy with them or they are poor quality- or worse they are never delivered? Are prints available on my online gallery or do I have to go to a poor quality pharmacy to print them?
