Stephi Class of 2021

Sweet Steffi wanted a pretty, wild & natural area for her senior portraits- and decided on Dreamy Draw! This Az School of the Arts soon to be grad glowed in the sunshine!
Steffi is an ASU High School Musical Theatre Award winner for costuming- and has the theatre 🎭on her mind as she plans for future adventures! She said she has been accepted to her “safe” options...I am excited to see what she chooses and what risks she takes in her future!

Ashley SDOHS Class of 2021 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix

“The neat part about pictures is when life changes the memory doesn’t have to”

Ashley Class of 2021

Ashley has such an energetic and happy spirit! Her smiles and laughs made this cloudy Saturday senior session shine bright!

The OC grad to be braved the wind like a pro, maybe partly to her Eagle Pride ROTC grit, and posed all over downtown #Phoenix to #PapagoPark in style. Everyones crazy for a sharp-dressed senior! She is still choosing the right after high school experience, but looking at a bunch of colleges and possibly even the photographic arts! Congratulations on your senior year Ash!!! Go get that world!

Science tells us our memories are changing. Changing because of our access to information, computer use, emotional maturity and the world around us. Understanding of what a memory even is has grown. Changing for the better in many ways. In other ways we understand more now that, well, really, what we remember isn’t even true based on a multitude of factors like perception, recall, and our of so human tendency to focus on the dreadful. Modern cognitive theory of a sensory memory, a short-term memory and a long-term memory has always been studied by humans, but really took off in the 60’s and 70’s as medical equipment was able to measure and compile more information to study. When combined with the long history of memory study…we gained a better understanding of how our memory works. Basically, it’s lying to us. Yet we are in control of those half or missed truths about what really happened during a moment that we lived.

Why do I bring this up in the middle of a senior session blog? Because by all reasonable standards this year has sucked. We know it, everyone is saying it’s the worst, all the news confirms that everything is terrible and it is just going to get worse and worse with an excited gleam in their eyes. Those who should be our most trusted elder members of society complain, and yell, and have told us they have looked back and compared to all memory this is the worst year ever in the history of forever. They are not wrong that it’s been terrible. Heartbreakingly we have lost so many souls we can't get back. Another reason photographs of those we love are so very important! The election turmoil has hurt us all. We cannot deny the hurt our society inflicts on so many of its members from people of color, to women, to those differently-abled. We have to do better. We all have pandemic fatigue we cannot let win.

We need to be safe and careful- we need to look to faith and science and stop ignoring the dangers of climate, the treatment of others less privileged, and political concerns. We also need to breathe, stop hoarding toilet paper, and live a little too. Neither can we forget the improvements this new era has brought us, it’s better by far than medieval times, so we know we are capable of great things. No pressure,eh?

We can’t always 100% trust our memory-which isn’t such a bad thing after all! We have a generation of kids here- Gen Z- that is the most well-informed, compassionate, strong, and thoughtful generation. Just because maybe not everyone appreciates that or understands their TikToks and IG posts and writes them off as just kids (exactly as THEIR parents and grandparents did before them- nudge-nudge) doesn’t mean it isn’t true. These kids are poised to be the next greatest generation. Support them. Celebrate them, help them. and get their moments of joy in a tough world truly memorized in a photo whenever you can. They are also the most documented and photographed generation so they can handle it hahahahah.

Find moments of joy and photograph the shit out of them, then hold onto THOSE good memories instead!

The brain in general, and memory, in particular, has a distinct negativity bias. It pays more attention to, and highlights, unpleasant experiences.

The brain typically detects negative information faster than positive information, and the hippocampus specifically flags negative events to make doubly sure that such events are stored in memory.

Negative experiences leave an indelible trace in the memory, even when efforts are made to “unlearn” them.

This is probably an evolutionary adaptation, given that it is better to err on the side of caution and ignore a few pleasant experiences than to overlook a negative, and possibly dangerous, event. - THE STUDY OF HUMAN MEMORY https://human-memory.net/

If we can’t trust our memory then what can we trust? Trust photos! Trust how you feel right now. Enjoy the moments, smile, and be present. Capture the good times and hold them tight. I always ask parents to get in some photos during sessions- parents GET IN THE DAMN PICTURES. Your kiddos deserve a photo of you together. Nobody who really matters gives a crap if you gained some COIVD pounds or don’t like your bangs. They NEED those photos of you for the hearts mamas.

One of the major lessons of memory research has been that human memory is fallible, imprecise, and subject to interference. Thus, although observers can remember thousands of images, it is widely assumed that these memories lack detail. Contrary to this assumption, long-term memory is capable of storing a massive number of objects with details from a (photographic) image. -

Look to change the world in one of the ways we all can every single day: do good whenever you can, care for each other and yourselves, smile and remember happy times and make happy times now with complete obstinance. Being happy in troubling times is an act of defiance we need more of. Be a rebel. Be like Ashley! Smile and laugh through the cloudy days and rock your senior portrait with confidence and happiness. Thank you for coming to my complete ramble of a Ted Talk ;p

Kayla Class of 2021 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Az

Absolutely amazing session with North Dakota Class of 2021 grad to be Kayla! This model & gymnast has Arizona in her heart and longed for the vibe of the desert to accompany her portraits- and she brought her own glow and free spirited beauty with her! She couldn’t wait to Wanderbabe it out onto the mountains surrounding the sun valley and explore the city of Phoenix with stylish outfits, hats, and a kick ass pair of Doc’s. Congrats Kayla and thank you for choosing me for your fun-tastic senior picture session!

Not much beats the vistas of Papago at Sunset-

love that soft peachy pink sky!

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

SMHS Matador Badminton! | Anjeanette Photography Senior Banners & Sport Portraits Phoenix

Loved meeting the Lady Matador Badminton team for Senior banners, Team and individual photos and buddy photos! Fun afternoon! The senior banners were a gift from Coach Weinke at Shadow Mountain for her three graduating ladies. I photographed the girls then designs a custom banners for each (plus a team banner of the seniors as my gift) The final banners arrived FAST from my printer- less than a week! I love the trade only professional banner producer I use, took a while to find just the right fit for quality, durability in the intense AZ weather, and fantastic color. Now the 36”x48” almost lifesize banners are celebrating the Class of 2021 in their home gym!

Of course, we got photos of the full Varsity and JV teams together plus lots of fun buddy photos and individual portraits!

Jessica ASU Class of 2021 | Anjeanette Photography Seniors | Phoenix AZ

Loved meeting and getting to know artist and soon to be ASU grad Jessica at her session this month!

Congratulations Jessica on graduation! I know that commitment in uncertain times was really something- can’t wait to see & hear about all she will be creating and animating! Jessica is a coding art wiz- can’t wait to geek out over her art! We had fun running around the graffiti downtown, through some pretty epic looking BBQ smoke (I can still smell it in my hair if I close my eyes), and around Papago at sunset getting her Class of 2021  Arizona State University senior portraits!

Full information on affordable cost and FAC on website. 

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 families 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!

Class of 2021 | Your missing out on a lot- you don't have to miss out on Senior Pictures!

Class of 2021, like the seniors before you, so much has altered what was supposed to be one of the best years of your life. The celebration of friends & milestones after 12 years of hard work.

Of course, there is SO much more to come and this isn't going to stop all the awesome adventures that your life will bring. But it's hard- this is HARD NOW, a disappointing way to start your big year.

You don't have to miss out on every part of senior year! Stay connected with friends on social media, make memories, research colleges, or post-grad adventures & plan your senior pictures!

YES, you can still enjoy a fun senior photos experience that is safe, socially distanced, and still vibes epic! I can help!

Praying the world gets healthy soon, we all grow stronger, & you lead us into a better future...& that school starts back soon in REAL LIFE so you can get back and see your friends!

How FUN are IG REELS??? See you there!

Some fantasy edits I did during the hot summertime off season- just for fun! Usually I prefer to keep it natural and full of soft glowing golden light - sometimes it is just fun to play! If you want to see what you can expect from your session check here: Outdoor Portfolio

Class of 2020 Instagram stories | The details changed- your accomplishments haven't!!!

Cap and Gown sessions are some of my favorites. This year they are so bittersweet. This year...whew.
I am sure you are sick of hearing that you are resiliant, that you will overcome, that you will be stronger for it.
That is all true- but honestly? This year sucked. And this was supposed to be THE year right? You worked hard for 12 years and certainly deserved better. You should be celebrated and cheered. Cheering from the internet just doesn’t feel the same. I def feel a little lame typing encouragement from the couch instead of jumping up and down in a school auditorium or stadium- but I really really DO believe in you.
This class, this generation that won’t meekly sit by and ignore injustice. This generation that gives a you-know-what about each other and the earth and everything. So yeah maybe I sound like a rambling mom cheerleader but damn, boy- you rock! All of you!!! I do think you will prevail above and beyond complacent survival. Yeah yeah surviving is important. I don’t want just surviving for any of you. I want you to thrive. You will be stronger because of everything that has been and to bring better things out of these ashes.

To heavily copy/paste from “5 Ways Tragedy Makes You A Hella-Strong Person”
by Aly Walansky: “We never want to experience tragedy or see anyone we care about have to go through it, but it's undeniable that those who do suffer tragedy emerge even stronger and have a better grip on true happiness.

A study in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that exposure to adverse experiences may foster mental resilience and may make people less affected by recent adverse events. This goes to show that, in moderation, whatever does not kill us may indeed make us stronger. “

Congratulations #classof2020 Now go kick some ass!

Sierra's Wrestling & Cap N' Gown mini session! | Anjeanette Photography

Wrestling champion Sierra knows all about the grind of a tough season- the determination and grit to go through the fire and make the podium as a champion. this year, it wasn’t just the wrestling mat she conquered, her 2020 senior year proved to be a challenge she persevered with the most of the world. Only senior year did not end with the celebration or ceremony they deserved. Regardless of canceled proms, graduations, and important events to recognize a momentous time is a person's life Sierra and her classmates have shown their resilience to face uncertainty and pressure to persevere. The circumstance changed but the accomplishments haven't! Congratulations Sierra on all of your hard-won achievements, diploma, and awards!! Now go conquer the world!

“A pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty. There is always something valuable that can be derived out of difficulty, adversity or change.”

Maria Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

I am so thankful Maria and I finally got to get together for a safe in the sun social distancing senior session before she heads off to Rice University! The Class of 2020 has had a wild ride navigating a whole new world of pandemics and epidemics. Marias is ready to debate and lead the Z Generation to victory!

Normally of course we would already be way past senior season! I really wanted to extend it and make some extra spots after all these young folks have had to deal with this unique and challenging year from fears for health and safety, to raising their voices for equality. After everything else they didn’t have to miss out on senior portraits. The best is yet to come have no doubt seniors. Right now you are shaping the future... I cannot wait to see how you change the world for the better. But I will wait day by day bc obvs thats how time works hahaha!

Maria had her sunrise session last week - when the desert morning air is a little cooler and the sun is brighter! She brought music, books, laughter, and all the smiles! Desert sunrise morning sessions are fantastic for light and airy looks and glittery sands! Congratulations Maria on all of your amazing accomplishments!!! A very bright future awaits!

Brooke SDOHS Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Portraits Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

One of a kind, real-life superhero Brooke not only nonchalantly rocks a 55lb+ tenor drum set during marching band season- she also loves all the fishes and will be majoring in Marine Biology in the fall. Brooke had been planning her senior pictures for close to a year- she knew since her junior year she wanted to do them at the Scottsdale Odysea Aquarium and carefully got her ideas ready. Brooke will be a part of the Mariane Biology program at the University of Hawaii- her acceptance was a win for UofH because this young lady is a hard-working and bright kid- she finished in the top 10% of a graduating class of over 600 and was the recipient of many awards & cords from her school in academics and band. We started talking about plus planning her session in the summer of '19. We had no idea that a few months after the new year began all the things that would cancel priceless and irreplaceable events in her senior year of school. Much less postpone her portraits. Thankfully businesses like the Aquarium were able to quickly reopen with new safety procedures to protect the animals, staff, and visitors when the state reopened after the Cobid19 pandemic shut down. The class of 2020 missed a lot. So much h that cannot ever be replaced. While the loss of special once in a lifetime pom and circumstance obviously pales in comparison to the losses of life and upheavals in our country from the disease and distress of a society unequal in it's care, liberty, rights, and compassion for people of color- it was still a loss that should not be taken lightly. Thankfully, senior portraits are one event seniors do not have to miss out on. While not every school will walk, and those that do have abbreviated telecast or social distancing ceremonies- a sense of celebration and closer is very possible in senior pictures. The Class of 2020 will have an amazing story to tell of perseverance and grit- and hopefully the triumph of taking care of each other with compassion and justice. Congratulations Brooke on your graduation, many honors, and acceptance into the college of your dreams! I can’t wait to see where your adventures take the new Jacques Cousteau!

We enjoyed the last of the cool breezes in Arizona for Roxy's senior portrait session. And what a gorgeous day with a gorgeous senior! This Chapparel Class of 2020 grad was ready to celebrate the end of her grade school career...and the end of an 'interesting' senior year to say the least! We chased the golden sunshine across the Phoenix skyline from Heritage Square to Steele Indian School Park accumulating in an amazing sunset over the Steele fountain. She rocked her session with five killer outfits and amazing smiles! Congratulations Roxy, on your accomplishments graduating from high school and on your next adventures!

Class of 2020 senior skip day champions- event cancellations do not mean you have to miss everything about senior year! Find the joy and zoom your friends- virtual games and hugs- get through these uncertain times together! When things are back to 'normal' and it is safe, we can reschedule and plan those special events as much as possible. If prom and graduation are permanently on hold- we can always have an amazing portrait session in your formals and caps and gowns when it is safe for everyone. This is a momentous time in history- it will be talked about for generations. Feeling broken-hearted that so much has changed- from sudden goodbyes to realizing the last time you were on campus already happened- that is normal. It's ok to feel grief, to mourn that loss. Know that like these hard times, that sadness and grief will not last. Be gentle with yourselves, know you are loved. Do what you can from online learning to personal enrichment, to naps or tik toks and Animal Crossing to take care of yourselves. Find ways to have peace and serenity. Journal these moments in writing, video, or art. You still have the power to make positive memories. With the stay at home order lifted in Arizona, hopefully, we reduced the curve to allow for better care for all and are all better equipped to fight this pandemic and win....the news can be scary and overwhelming, but I am constantly uplifted by stories of people helping each other, lifting each other up, and the essential workers from health care and first responders to grocery employees who are saving lives! In all the shuffle to prepare and social distance, the Class of 2020 experienced a tremendous loss. Health and safety are paramount- but the memories of a senior year lost have also been traumatic. Senior year memories are something many folks carry with them their whole lifetime. These seniors won’t have all of them. They shouldn’t have to lose all of their senior year experiences - I am so thankful that with a long lens outside I am able to provide one important of the big year- senior pictures 🧡 Stay safe 2020- you matter no matter what has happened. Your achievements have NOT changed just because the circumstances around them have!

Jason Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It’s gallery delivery day! As Jason’s mom said I was absolutely teasing them with sneak peeks on Instagram of Jason’s senior picture session- I am so excited about how great Jason did and some of the images captured for him! We had a warm but gorgeous Arizona day last week when we finally got o to have Jason's rescheduled senior portrait session. Starting at the ASU Grant street studios and ending at Papago, I got to know this dynamic senior and his family amidst the reopening of our city and state. Jason impressed me with natural smiles and ease in 100+ temps- never let em see you sweat! While Jason did a fantastic job for his portrait session we were all the most excited to get to the track for some sport action shots of Jason biking! Jason's ride looks like a mountain bike with killer suspension, giant tires, and the ability to dirt jump and basically drop off of ...MOUNTAINS! Crazy being right next to a bike falling that far and fast when it whooshes past. The course he uses has trails with tight curves, rough and smooth transitions in terrain, and multiple hard-packed dirt ramps that he propels over to fly through the sky- all overlooking the skyline of Phoenix. Luckily for me, we got a fantastic sunset at the end of his session so I was able to get a variety of sky colours as he shot off of hills and ledges! Congratulations Jason, on your accomplishments graduating from high school and on finding something you love like biking- doing what you love is one of the greatest gifts. It's obvious how much time, hard work training, and effort you put into making soaring through the air look effortless. Keep that passion for life wherever you go on this adventure of life!

Taylor Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It turns out that I actually saw Taylor about a year before we ever met! We were chatting about her love of theatre and performance and dreams of acting in college. Taylor is an accomplished actress who has performed in local youth theatre groups as well as at Sandra Day O’Connor where my own kids attend school. The theatre productions at that high school are not like the plays and musicals we put on when I was in hs- they are extremely professional and have amazing production values. That got us talking about favorite musicals, and I mentioned a few recent ones I had been to in NY and locally, including Sister Act at The Arizona Broadway Theatre that friends from church treated us to- it turns out I had already watched Taylor perform as a part of that ensemble cast!!

Taylors brought a vintage vibe to her session, with her favorite records from Billie Joel to Carole King to Fleetwood Mac with her retro sunglasses- she was so effortlessly cool. For the perfect backdrop, she had her sights set on Mill ave with its local indie bookstores and classic flashback style movie theatre - plus Sparky's ice cream parlour.

We soaked up att the sights from tiny garden nooks to parking garages with stunning views of ASU and Gammage before heading over to the Tempe Arts Center for a peachy rose sunset by the water. One fun item Taylor and her mom planned were bubbles- she loves them, and what a way to blow your cares away after a disappointment than colorful bubbles. Bubbles don't fix problems obviously, but they sure speak to the resilience of Taylor's spirit in far less than ideal circumstances. She hasn't totally made her mind up about which college she will be pursuing next year- and with so many universities postponing events it has been hard to get all of the information and auditions in to make a choice. This class of graduating seniors has had so many setbacks and pivots disrupting their lives- yet they are all seemingly taking it in stride. They have adapted to the new normals with amazing recovery rates from grief and are comfortable with their emotions and taking on hard challenges head-on with a sense of humor- anticipate remarkable things from them in the years to come. No pressure ;)

Taylor you are a star, cannot wait to see what you tackle next year and beyond!

“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

Back when we had this session I had no idea it would be my last for....months? It was the middle of what should have been a busy senior season with exciting grads to be getting photos to celebrate their 12 years of primary and high school. Photos for invitations and announcements. Photos to decorate grad party tables. So much has changed...so many of my seniors are waiting and on hold until everything is safe. Pictures will be here when it is over. Parties with dancing in the very streets. Even if proms and ceremonies are officially canceled don’t lose hope that things can be rescheduled- or that you will find new and more amazing ways to celebrate! I will see you all when it’s over. stay safe and prepare for the next act!

Max Liberty HS Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix

Met up with Max at DC Ranch earlier last month and he did a fantastic job posing, what a fantastic smile! Who knew then that his spring break would turn into senior year finished at home? Liberty grad to be Max is a roll with it guy however, his music and drums will get him through. I loved his Eddie Redmayne fashion model vibes! Great job Max!

While the COVID19 pandemic surrounds us, I am still working on sessions from weeks back before it all hit. So thankful for clients and seniors who have been able to postponed sessions for safety, and in accordance with the Stay-At-Home orders of March 30th. I can’t wait to meet up with them later this year! Also really blessed so many folks had sessions planned earlier before everything happened. Keep your chins up Class of 2020- roadblocks have never stopped you before. Use this time to plan . You are the most optimistic and driven digital natives ever born. You CARE about what matters, you are unique, authentic, creative entrepreneurs. You are a generation poised for success, and can strategically navigate challenges- even global pandemics- to your advantage. Got get it!

Chloe DVHS Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior pictures Phoenix Arizona

Bubbly and vivacious Chloe's senior session was right before the Pandemic- literally just weeks before the "stay at home" orders were issued for Arizona and I closed up shop as a precaution for everyone's safety! Don't worry, we were still 'legal' and I used a 200mm lens to social distance :)

The tough news couldn’t hold back Chloe’s smiles though. She is a determined young woman, ready to take on the world. Plans change, and things beyond our control come up throughout life. Chloe is ready to pivot, to adapt, to be strong.

Harrison & Kylie Shadow Mountain Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

What a year 2020 has been- and it is only March! WOW, when we were taking these we had no idea what was to come in the next few weeks! The worries were far away and spring break had just begun... So thankful I was able to go ahead with this long ago scheduled duo senior pictures session before Covid-19 social distancing quarantine began! So much uncertainty and worry. Despite all the challenges we are facing now and may face in the near future, memories of our most valuable moments are important- they are worth holding onto.

Kylie and Harrison are high school sweethearts who wanted their senior pictures taken together. We walked around the Phoenix Desert Botanical Gardens on a golden light filled afternoon, capturing portraits of each of them separately and together in the cactus blooms of spring. We had fun laughing and posing, and smiling in the bright sunshine. While some things may be uncertain in the immediate now, in the fall these two are headed to ASU and the Navy with bright futures ahead! Their bond and these moments will not be forgotten. Both families are good friends, so joint sessions together was an obvious choice for them, making sure to ask me for photos of them altogether.

Class of 2020 -Hang in there. No words can replace prom or the end of your school year, but know that there will be light at the end of this terrible tunnel we are in. The future is yours and you will ROCK whatever comes next.

I love you all!

“There are fields of Gold behind the little house
Filled with the greatest of treasures
Bronze, Gold and Silver

Do you remember?
Remember our childhood, Our life’s

The shinning Silver sparkling in the skies
The brightest Bronze hidden under the ground
The greatest Gold glimmering through the fields

Can you see them?
Picture it in your mind

All the times we danced
Every time we laughed
Where we used to love

Or have you forgotten?
Forgotten the good, Forgotten the bad

Every memory
Every moment
Every word

I wish you’d remember
To turn back time, So you could take me

Take me to the gold
To the fields on a summers day
To our fields, our treasure

The Silver, The Bronze
The Gold

But the treasures gone
The house still remains
The fields just as empty as the day we left

Times have changed
Our life’s have changed

Our Silver gone dull
Our Bronze all rusted
Our Gold long forgotten

It was never there
The winds of time and turns of the earth have seen to that

But I remember
I cry for the children who found the greatest of treasures and those who lost it so soon after
And I dream of dancing and singing and running and laughter, of the treasures that lie in the fields of Gold.”

— By Carrie Halliday

Teagan Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It is no secret that one of my favorite places to take senior pictures in Phoenix is the Desert Botanical Gardens- the gardens are so good to clients and photographers! Even popular spots become unique, even nooks and crannies that are my personal favorites are made new - the personality of each senior shines through! Teagan was no exception- her bubbly light and big gorgeous smile outshone the sun on this fantastic Arizona spring day! Teagan came ready with a plan, her mood board, and four awesome outfits, as well as her own camera so that we could capture senior year memories to express her artistic journey to graduation. Love that I get to be creative for a living - which is why I had so much fun meeting Teagan for her portrait session -she is a photographer and artist too!
