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:

Hannah's senior session captured a third of my top nine all on her own! This gorgeous session at golden hour was a definite hit with a poised color guard spinner as posh and prepared as Hannah!
Proms took another section of the Senior Best Nine- individual sessions like Mason's epic pose (middle) Or Station Camp Senior Prom mini sessions where one of the party goers I met up with was stylish Natalie (top) or the second mini session for Beech's senior prom with Kendall, Savanah, and Sarah (bottom).
My girl, my muse took the last third with images from our Phoenix Mural adventure in formal gown, as well as images from her sweet sixteen birthday in New York at New Years time!

Station Camp & Beech High | Prom 2K17 | Great Poses and Personaility
Once again we had polar opposite weather for Prom Minis-
warm thunderstorms made for rich dramatic colour & chilly gorgeous Sunshine for romantic photos!
Both prom mini sessions this year had the most important ingredient however-modern, posh, & stylish seniors and juniors ready for fun! All of these gorgeous young ladies and guys were magazine ready, so glad they spent a few moments with Anjeanette Photography in the middle of the rush of hair appointments, makeup, dressing and then dinner and dancing at prom.
Special thank you to Young's Nursery for rescuing the kids- the kids and parents from Station Camp stopped into the nursery located at 1955 Nashville Pike, Gallatin, TN the day before and Mr Young and an assistant agreed to help them with a location in the event of rain! It was such a blessing to have his permission since it absolutely poured cats and dogs on the night of the Empires Prom! I cannot imagine a more amazing backdrop than the nursery!
Thank you as always to Sumner County's own Amulet Farm! I love shooting here- its a beautiful and rustic fun venue for all kinds of photography full of character and friendly faces! The barn and tractors had a wonderful contrasting charm to these gorgeous young women & their prom styles!
