Ethan OC Class of 2024 | Phoenix Senior Photographer Anjeanette Photography

Ethan is gearing up for some epic adventures in Flagstaff! He has this cool, laid-back vibe that made our photo session an absolute blast. Ethan wanted a rustic, outdoorsy location for his senior photos, and I knew just the place – the Peoria Regional Preserve.

This place is hands down one of my favorite desert locations. We set out on the preserve’s trails, surrounded by rugged rocks, endless saguaros, and stunning views of the Westwing and Eastwing mountains. The scenery was perfect for capturing Ethan’s adventurous spirit and his excitement for the future.

Ethan’s enthusiasm for his future adventures in Flagstaff was infectious. He’s so pumped about the natural beauty up there, the pine forests, and the cooler weather. I could see that same excitement as we walked through the preserve. It’s as if he was already imagining himself hiking through the trails and exploring the great outdoors. That’s the thing about Ethan – he’s always looking ahead, dreaming big, and ready for the next adventure.

As we wandered through the preserve, we found the most amazing spots for photos. The late afternoon light was perfect, casting a golden glow over everything. Ethan was a natural in front of the camera, totally relaxed and cool. His laid-back attitude made the whole session feel like a casual walk with a friend rather than a formal photo shoot.

Ethan’s easygoing nature was evident throughout the session. He’s one of those people who just goes with the flow, which made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. It’s no wonder he’s excited about Flagstaff – it’s a place that perfectly matches his adventurous and chill personality. I have no doubt he’s going to thrive up there, making the most of every opportunity and embracing all the new experiences.

We ended the session as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, orange glow over the landscape. The desert has this magical way of transforming in the evening light, and it was the perfect ending to a fantastic day. Ethan’s excitement for the future was palpable, and I felt so honored to capture this special moment in his life.

Ethan, if you’re reading this, I just want to say thank you for such a fun and memorable session. Your adventurous spirit and laid-back attitude are truly inspiring. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll do in Flagstaff and beyond. Keep dreaming big and chasing those adventures!

To all the high school seniors and parents out there, Ethan’s story is a reminder to embrace the journey and make the most of every moment. Senior year is such a special time, full of possibilities and excitement for the future. Whether you’re heading to college, traveling, or pursuing your passions, remember to take a moment to capture these memories. They’re the ones you’ll look back on and cherish for years to come.

Here’s to all the seniors of 2024 – may your future be as bright and beautiful as the Arizona sunsets!

Ella Mountain Ridge High Class of 2024 | Arizona Senior Portrait Sessions by Phoenix photographer Anjeanette Photography

Ella is truly one of a kind! When I first met her, I was immediately captivated by her striking blue eyes and vibrant red hair. They create such a stunning contrast against the rich greens and earthy tones of the Desert Botanical Gardens. It was the perfect location to capture her unique beauty and dynamic personality.

Time's Passing by BLUESTEEL, Cushy, Damma Beatz

During our session, Ella’s eyes sparkled like the clear Arizona sky, well, usually thats the color of the Phoenix sky. Ella had a rare treat however! The sky was a giant softbox with overcast cool tones keeping us cool and making the colors pop twice as saturated and rich as usual. Ella who I suspect is always stands out as exceptional really popped against the garden landscapes. Her red hair, fiery and full of life, really did dance in the breeze. Every photograph seemed to capture a moment of pure magic, as if the desert blooms themselves were in awe!

The Desert Botanical Gardens provided a stunning backdrop for Ella’s senior photos. The vibrant colors and diverse plant life perfectly complemented her vivid features, creating a series of images that are both timeless and unique. Each photo tells a story, capturing the essence of who Ella is and the bright future that lies ahead.

Ella’s accomplishments go far beyond her physical appearance. She’s on the honor roll and has been for as long as she can remember. Graduating two years early is no small feat, and Ella has done it with grace and resilience. Her hard work and dedication are truly inspiring, and it’s clear that she’s destined for great things.

In addition to her academic prowess, Ella is heading to ASU to continue her education. She’s excited to dive into new challenges and opportunities, eager to soak up knowledge and experiences. Her passion for learning and her unyielding spirit will undoubtedly lead her to success in her future endeavors.

Ella’s journey has been marked by hard work, perseverance, and a passion for excellence. Her early graduation is a testament to her commitment to her education and her desire to make the most of every opportunity. As she prepares to start her next chapter at ASU, I have no doubt that she will continue to shine and inspire those around her.

To all the Mountain Lion high school seniors and parents reading this, Ella’s story is a reminder that with hard work and dedication, anything is possible. Her journey is just beginning, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things she will accomplish in the years to come.

Congratulations, Ella! Your bright eyes and fiery spirit are just the beginning of your incredible journey. Here’s to a future filled with endless possibilities and remarkable achievements! 🌟

Layla & Lillian Centennial High Class of 2024

As a Phoenix senior photographer, I've had the privilege of commemorating many graduation milestones. However, few sessions are as special as my recent portrait experience with twins Layla and Lillian from Centennial High School's Class of 2024.

These remarkable young women, both National Honor Society members, have an unbreakable sisterly connection. Even as they prepare to embark on different collegiate journeys, the affectionate dynamic they share is beautifully unshakable.

When Layla and Lillian arrived at the Botanical Gardens full of excitement, we instantly forged a rapport that allowed their authenticity to shine before my lens.

Collaborating with twin is a unique creative opportunity to highlight the distinctive individuals within an intertwined bond. Through a little thoughtful direction and an encouragment, I helped Layla and Lillian to feel comfortable expressing their individual personalities.

For me, their session marked the culmination of another profound senior portrait season. As the sisters' high school journey draws to a close, a new class eagerly awaits the opportunity to immortalize their own stories of growth, friendship and memories through iconic portraiture.

Phoenix families with current high school juniors – the window to reserve your senior's portrait experience is already open for the Class of 2025. Just like Layla and Lillian's session, your senior's portraits will become treasured heirlooms celebrating them.

Don't let these fleeting moments slip away. Because when the diplomas have been tucked away and careers have blossomed, it's the memories captured within these portraits that will transport you back to their fearless, radiant selves on the brink of an unwritten future.

Jessie OC class of 2024 | Peoria Arizona Senior Portrait Sessions by Phoenix photographer Anjeanette Photography

What a thrill it was to photograph Jessie, a true embodiment of grace and determination, for her senior portrait session at Papago Park. Just moments before our scheduled time, this remarkable young woman quite literally ran over from a track meet, still radiating an infectious energy and a radiant glow that only added to the magic of our laughter filled session.

This is a young woman who has truly mastered the art of excelling in every arena she graces with a natural smile and cheerfulness.

Acceptance - Stripped Version Song by Frankie Orella

What truly set this session apart was the vintage guitar Jessie brought along – a cherished instrument lovingly restored by her father's skilled hands. As she cradled it in her arms, one could sense the deep connection that undoubtedly fuels her passion for music and her dedication to honing her guitar-playing skills.

Throughout our time together, Jessie's infectious enthusiasm and unwavering determination shone through in every frame. Whether she was striking a confident pose against the striking backdrop of Papago Park's iconic red rocks or playfully strumming her guitar, her spirit and authenticity captivated the lens.

Ryan SDOHS 2024 | Arizona Senior Portrait Sessions by Phoenix photographer Anjeanette Photography

As a student at Sandra Day O'Connor High School, Ryan's high school experience was a whirlwind of activities. Can you imagine juggling competitive marching band, ROTC, playing electric guitar, and being a member of the track team to mention a few? When it came time for his senior portraits, Ryan wanted to capture not just his academic achievements but also the passions that defined his high school journey.

Into the Wild Blue Yonder

With his parents help, we went above (flight pun sorry) and beyond to create a one-of-a-kind experience for this exceptional senior. Ryan's parents had a special surprise in store for him at the end of his senior portrait session. Ryan recently received an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy – a dream come true for this aspiring aviator. To celebrate this momentous achievement, his parents arranged for me to visit the airport for portraits with a friends plane, and then Lt Colonel Daniel Deahler, USAF (ret.) took Ryan on a flight, soaring through the skies in an experimental plane!

Can you imagine the thrill of capturing Ryan's portraits with this backdrop? It was as if his dreams of becoming a pilot had already taken flight and I got to be there to document it!

These portraits tell the story of a young man who embraced every opportunity, who dared to dream big, and who left an indelible mark on the halls of Sandra Day O'Connor High School. As Ryan embarks on his next adventure at the United States Air Force Academy, his senior portraits will serve as a cherished reminder of the journey that brought him to this point. It will be amazing to see him to continue reaching for the stars, knowing that his dreams truly have no limits.

Piper Anthem Prep Class of 2024 | Arizona Senior Portrait Sessions: | Phoenix Senior Picture sessions by Arizona photographer Anjeanette.Photography

Let's talk about Piper's senior pictures! Piper’s Phoenix senior pictures Action package took us to Gold Canyon’s Boyce Thompson Arbetorum, one of the most beautiful areas in the southern eastern side of Tonto National Forest.  

This sweet class of 2024 senior is a student at Anthem Prep active in her church community, volunteering, writing, & crafting. You could just feel her bubbly, upbeat personality shining through in every single shot. Brighter than the sun, before and after it dipped behind clouds to make the sky a giant dramatic softbox!

Can we talk about her outfits for a sec? Piper had not one, not two, but FIVE outfits for her session - perfectly centered around her signature sunny yellow color! I was excited when she showed me her outfit ideas a few weeks before the session when we chatted with mom...you can never have too many outfit changes during a senior portrait session. Ok well you COULD, especially if you change fromon e to the next slowly ha! But 3-5 outfits seemsto be the perfect amount to keep the session fresh and full of variety whileshowingoff aspects of your fashion personalities. Seriously, not having enough outfits is such a bigger problem than having too many. Think about it - if you only have one or two looks, we're really limited for your portraits. But if you bring a whole wardrobe of cute attire? We can switch up the vibe and take advantage of all the amazing scenery around us.

With Piper's five fits, we were able to capture her bright, cheerful essence at multiple scenic spots around the arboretum grounds. Those brilliant yellow hues popped so beautifully against the lush greenery and desert flora. I'm obsessed! Now you know how I feel about wardrobe changes during sessions. The more, the merrier! An abundance of outfits equals an abundance of amazing portraits. It's honestly a struggle for me to photograph an entire senior session with just one or two looks. I always see a little more of a persons vibe with each outfit.

Seniors, if Piper's vibrant pictures have you eager for your own portrait session, get on my calendar ASAP! I'm already booking fast for the Class of 2025. This year, I actually had to turn seniors away because my schedule was completely full by mid-February. The popular dates go so quickly!

Avoid FOMO get your session booked early. Trust me, you don't want to be left out when everyone else is posting their killer senior pics all over Instagram next year. Secure your spot, then we can strategize outfit choices galore!

In the end, Piper's sunny senior portraits turned out absolutely beautifully. Her bright yellow outfits were the perfect embodiment of her joyful, optimistic spirit. I'm so grateful she took my advice about wardrobe changes to heart - it resulted in a vibrant, multi-faceted gallery her family will treasure forever.

Abe Class of 2022 | Anjeanette Photography Senior portraits Phoenix Az (Copy)

Gorgeous girl and gorgeous smile- but what you can’t see is the strength and determination in every photo. This spunky fun senior has been thru multiple foot surgeries, and was on crutches for this entire session although her Doctor gave the all-clear for travel and portraits! Don’t worry, mom and I made sure she took frequent breaks and didn’t push this passionate kid. Safety first always, no photo is worth risking her health.

Resolved not to be slowed down, she flew to Arizona from Montana to get photos like ones she fondly remembered from being a kid and playing in the backyard of her grandparents to sunsets with Sonoran Cacti silhouettes. So of course the best place for cacti and dreamy desert views in Phoenix is the Botanical Gardens. No sunsets of this rare overcast afternoon, but Abe’s smile beams away the clouds, and cloudy days are lovely for soft shadows and vibrant color.

This northern plains basketball and volleyball star has beaten the odds before- and will again! On the road to healing and enjoying her senior year!

Amelia Sandra Day O'Connor High Class of 2024 | Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

As the sun dipped low over the dusty plains of Sahuro Ranch, casting long shadows across the saguaro cacti, Amelia's emerald eyes sparkled with a mix of excitement and anticipation. Amelia's senior portrait session at Sahuro Ranch was an exquisite portrayal of her unique journey through high school. As a dedicated member of the EaglePride Winter Guard and a fervent enthusiast of thriller novels, Amelia's session was filled with personal touches that reflected her passions and interests. She moves with the grace of a dancer and the precision of a warrior. Her love for the dramatic extends beyond the stage, as she devours thriller novels with the same intensity she brings to her performances. It was this unique blend of strength, artistry, and intellectual curiosity that I wanted to capture in her senior photos.

This videos music: PASTIS Back to the Wild https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/D3nwcWehjr/

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Sahuro Ranch, adorned with gem tones and graced by majestic peacocks, Amelia's portraits captured her essence with remarkable clarity. Her striking green eyes added a captivating allure to each photograph, emphasizing her individuality and depth of character. The setting of Sahuro Ranch couldn't have been more perfect. The sprawling desert landscape, with its vibrant gem tones of ochre, rust, and terracotta, provided a stunning backdrop for Amelia's portraits. The majestic peacocks, strutting their iridescent tails, added a touch of whimsy and theatricality, perfectly reflecting Amelia's personality.

These senior pictures are not just mere snapshots; they are visual narratives of Amelia's high school experience and the memories she holds dear. Each image tells a story of dedication, passion, and the journey of self-discovery that defines the senior year. Whether it's showcasing a beloved hobby, a favorite location, or simply capturing one's unique personality, senior pictures are an opportunity to celebrate the culmination of years of hard work and growth. Amelia's senior portraits are more than just beautiful photographs; they are a testament to her individuality, her spirit, and the exciting chapter that awaits her after graduation. As she embarks on her next adventure, I have no doubt that she will continue to soar, leaving her mark on the world with the same grace, determination, and love for the dramatic that she brought to her senior year at OC High.

Congratulations to Amelia and the entire graduating class of OC High! May your senior portraits reflect the essence of who you are and serve as timeless reminders of this momentous chapter in your lives.

Thomas Sandra Day O’Connor High Class of 2024 | PHOENIX & PEORIA GRADUATION PICTURES & HIGH SCHOOL PHOTOGRAPHER ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

It was a dark and stormy Sunday…well not exactly but it WAS overcast, winter rain was threatening, and it was cloudy as all get out. Do people still say that? Thing is - I hate cloudy days! Clouds are a favorite of many photographers with their ‘giant softbox’ ‘saturated colors’ and blah blah blah, but not for me. I didn’t move to Arizona to see no clouds! As a professional you gotta be ready for anything, and able to make any condition work. So I prefer the golden hour backlit glow. USUALLY that is. This session was so dramatic and epic I almost change my mind about cloudy days!

Thomas’ easy, relaxed smile and fun loving personality make any day light up- aw! He is a cute kid! A member of the Class of 2024, he holds the distinguished role of Drum Major in the Eagle Pride Marching Band with a dedication to music and leadership shines through in every frame of his senior pictures. As an Arizona native, Thomas is no stranger to the desert heat, but with graduation on the horizon, he's eagerly anticipating the cooler temperatures and new adventures awaiting him at NAU.

The stunning backdrop of Sonoran Mountain Preserve served as a unique canvas for capturing Thomas' personality and accomplishments. Senior photos are not just about capturing a moment in time; they are about celebrating achievements and preserving memories that will be cherished for years to come. Thomas' graduation portraits beautifully encapsulate the essence of his high school journey – from the camaraderie of marching band rehearsals to the excitement of looking towards the future.

As Thomas transitions into the next chapter of his academic and personal journey, these senior pictures will serve as a timeless reminder of his growth, resilience, and the unwavering support of his family and community. Through the lens of a camera, we've captured not just images, but the spirit of a young man ready to spread his eagle wings. Sounds cheesy- but it’s true!

Ellie MOUNTAIN RIDGE CLASS OF 2024 | PHOENIX & PEORIA GRADUATION PICTURES & HIGH SCHOOL PHOTOGRAPHER ANJEANETTE PHOTOGRAPHY

Sunsets have a magical way of painting the sky with vibrant hues, creating the perfect backdrop for capturing memorable moments. I had the pleasure of photographing a sunset mini session with Ellie, a Class of 2024 senior from Mountain Ridge High School.

Senior pictures are more than just photographs; they are a celebration of achievements and a reflection of personality. Ellie's senior photos captured her essence perfectly, showcasing her radiant smile and infectious enthusiasm for life.

Throughout her high school journey, Ellie was actively involved in various activities, including band and winterguard. These pursuits not only enriched her high school experience but also shaped her into the remarkable individual she is today. Incorporating elements of her interests into the photoshoot like her with her flute and a few dancers leaps added a personal touch, capturing the essence of who Ellie is as a person.

As the sun dipped below the horizon behind a wall of clouds, the greyness was transformed to a painting with the sky in shades of orange and pink. We wrapped up the session almost in the dark, which I am ausre was a little concerning to Ellie and her folks, but being a flash and natural light photographer (aka any available light) I knew I captured the portraits without fake AI skies added later- because flash photography allows you to set the background in camera to capture what’s really there, then turn on the flash to capture your subject!

I was so excited for what we captured with an amazing young lady. Graduation portraits serve as a timeless reminder of a significant milestone in one's life, encapsulating the anticipation and excitement of embarking on a new chapter.

Sunset sessions offer the perfect opportunity to capture senior pictures that are not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful. Ellie's photoshoot was a testament to the beauty of this fleeting moment in time, serving as a lasting memento of her high school journey and the bright future that lies ahead.

Caden and Liesa Mountain Ridge Class of 2024 Phoenix & Peoria Graduation Pictures & High School Photographer ANJEANETTE.PHOTOGRAPHY

As a photographer specializing in capturing the essence of the Class of 2024 through senior pictures and graduation portraits, I've had the privilege of witnessing incredible stories unfold in front of my lens. Liesa and Caden's journey is one that tugs at the heartstrings and makes you say “awwwww”. On the last day of 2023, Liesa and Caden celebrated their Class of 2024 journey with a portrait session from Anthem to the vista of Sunset Point. Even though it was a little overcast these two radiated energy and optimism. Their portraits capture not just a moment in time, but the perseverance and spirit that will see them conquer whatever comes their way. ✨ 

COSPE “Teenage Emotions”

These two remarkable individuals first crossed paths as percussionists in the State Champion Mountain Ridge Marching Band and Wind Ensemble. From the cadence of their drumbeats to the harmonious notes they created together, it was evident that their connection extended beyond the musical realm. As their senior year approached, we decided to freeze these moments of camaraderie in time with a special BFF senior portrait session.

Anthem Park and Sunset Point provided the perfect canvas for our photographic adventure, where we went from a giant sky sized softbox of a soft cloudy day to being bathed in the Arizona sunset. The landscape served as a backdrop, mirroring the journey these two have shared throughout their high school years.

Navigating the waterfalls of Anthem, we captured nervous giggles to genuine laughter and shared memories that define Liesa and Caden's relationship. Later we drove up to the edge of the sky above the Phoenix Valley to Sunset Point surrounded by the Bradshaw Mountains.

To Liesa and Caden, as you stand on the brink of new adventures, may these graduation portraits be a cherished reminder of the incredible relationship and lifetime memories you've built together. To the parents reading this, I hope this post inspires you to celebrate the unique friendships and relationships that have enriched your child's high school experience.

Here's to Liesa and Caden, the Class of 2024, and the beautiful journey that lies ahead!

Class of 2024, Meet Your New Senior Pic Muse: Ben's Classic Car Meets Streetwear Symphony

Forget awkward yearbook photos and cheesy backdrops. Phoenix seniors, it's time to level up your graduation portrait game. Enter Ben, Class of 2024, and a swaggering testament to the power of vision, personality, and a killer vintage Corvette Stingray. Let's be real, senior pics can sometimes feel like a forced march through tired tropes. A lot of guys just don’t get into them because they completely disinterested in stale and cheesy looks - but it doesn’t have to be that way! I was SO EXCITED for this session, Ben knew exactly what he wanted from a hip studio, to pose ideas, and urban backdrops. He took the reins and drove this session straight into a whole new lane. Think streetwear swagger meets classic car cool, with a dash of timeless style and a whole lot of personality.

Ben's wardrobe was a carefully curated symphony of streetwear staples and authentic vintage sustainable thrifts. Think Iconic Detroit Carharrt Jacket, graphic tees, and kicks from boots to sneakers that would make any magazine. It def gave me Lewys feelings! (Ball is a Scottish fashion and lifestyle influencer)

And then there was the Corvette– a cherry & chrome masterpiece that ALMOST stole the show (don't worry, Ben, you held your own!).

This wasn't just a photo shoot; it was an experience to celebrate senior year before Ben conquers the world (one killer outfit at a time).

Kenna Class of 2024 | Peoria & Phoenix Arizona Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography

Grab your favorite drink and get comfy, friends! I can’t wait to share Kenna’s incredible downtown senior portrait session in Phoenix, AZ with you. This session was extra special because Kenna had just moved to Anthem, AZ when the COVID-19 epidemic hit, making her transition to a new high school at Boulder Creek pretty challenging. But she faced it all with such grace and strength.

Kenna showed up with the most fabulous hairstyle, thanks to her mom, who is a kick-ass hairstylist. Her hair was styled to perfection, adding a touch of glam to every shot. We started the session with a mix of posed and candid shots. Kenna’s smile lit up the camera, and her candid shots, where she was walking around downtown, were pure gold. But the cinematic portraits were my absolute favorite. Kenna looking off into the distance, lost in thought, created such a cool vibe. It’s like capturing a moment from a movie!

Our adventure began amidst the urban charm of downtown Phoenix. The city provided the perfect backdrop for Kenna's senior pictures – a fusion of modernity and tradition. We explored the colorful murals that adorned the walls as we strolled through the streets. The energy of the city blended seamlessly with the excitement of capturing these precious moments.

From the bustling streets, we transitioned to a more serene setting, capturing Kenna against the iconic golden Phoenix skyline. The graduation portraits radiated a sense of accomplishment and anticipation for the future. The city, with its towering buildings and endless possibilities, mirrored the wide-open path that lies ahead for Kenna. It was a beautiful juxtaposition – the urban landscape symbolizing the journey from adolescence to adulthood.

We explored the bustling streets of downtown Phoenix, with its vibrant murals and urban chic spots. Kenna’s outfits were on point, and she blended right into the city’s stylish backdrop. One of the highlights of our session was when we went up to a parking garage surrounded by skyscrapers. The cityscape was breathtaking, but what caught my eye was a small puddle from a rare Arizona rainstorm. I was so excited! We played with reflections, and I captured Kenna with her arms raised to the sky, reflected perfectly in the water. It was magical!

During the session, Kenna shared stories about her move and how she adapted to her new school. It wasn’t easy, but she made it through with determination and a positive attitude. Her resilience was inspiring, and it showed in her photos. Every image told a part of her story – a young woman who faced challenges head-on and emerged stronger.

We took a break for some fun and candid moments. At one point, Kenna spotted a street musician and started dancing to the music. Her spontaneous dance moves were a blast to capture. It’s those unplanned moments that add so much personality to a session. We were all laughing, and Kenna’s joy was contagious. These candid shots are some of my favorites because they show her true spirit.

As the sun began to set, we took advantage of the golden hour. The warm, soft light added a beautiful glow to Kenna’s portraits. The skyscrapers in the background, bathed in the sunset’s golden hues, created a stunning contrast with Kenna’s silhouette. She looked absolutely radiant, and the photos turned out breathtaking.

Kenna, your downtown senior session was amazing! Your energy and enthusiasm made every moment special. Keep shining and chasing your dreams. Your strength and resilience will take you far, and I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll achieve. You’re a star! 🌟

For everyone reading, if you’re looking for an unforgettable senior portrait experience, downtown Phoenix is the place to be. The urban landscape, combined with unique photo spots, offers endless possibilities for capturing your personality and style. And remember, the key to a great photo session is to have fun and be yourself. That’s when the magic happens!

Thanks for joining me on this adventure with Kenna.

It was a sun-kissed day filled with laughter, vibrant colors, and the excitement of capturing Kenna's unique personality as she embarks on this exciting journey from high school to the next chapter of her life.

Jacob Sunnyslope Class of 2024 | Phoenix Graduation Pictures & High School Senior Portrait sessions

I've been capturing the senior portraits of athletes for many years, but Jacob, a football captain at Sunnyslope Viking High School, ranks among the best. Jacob is a force to be reckoned with on the field, but off the field, he's a down-to-earth guy with a fantastic smile. We adventured into the picturesque landscapes of the Paradise Valley palm lined lanes, to the Vikings stadium, then we kicked it up a notch by venturing out to the stunning Lake Pleasant. The change of scenery added a whole new dimension to Jacob's senior portraits. Against the serene backdrop of the lake, we documented portraits of a young man transitioning to the wider world beyond high school. It was an adventure that mirrored the exciting journey Jacob is about to embark on.

By the end of those intense Friday Night Lights, he was understandably worn out, but when it came time for his senior pictures the next day, he powered through like a true champion. The football stadium provided a backdrop that resonated with Jacob's passion for the game. We captured those fantastic smiles and cool, tough vibes that make Jacob the charismatic captain guy is.

Jacob's senior pictures aren't just about documenting his time in school; they're about showcasing the resilience, determination, and vibrant spirit that define his high school experience. It's a story told through images – a visual journey of a Viking warrior, ready to take on the world with his strength, his determination, and unwavering spirit. Cheers to an amazing senior year Jacob! 🎓🏈

Olivia Class of 2024 | Phoenix Senior Portraits by Anjeanette Photography Peoria Arizona

It's hard to believe how fast time has flown. Senior year is a reminder that childhood doesn’t last forever- but that the transition to adulthood and beyond should still be fun!

I recently photographed Olivia's senior portrait session at the stunning Boyce Thompson Arboretum. It was an unforgettable experience capturing this amazing young woman as she embarks on her senior year.

THIS VIDEOS MUSIC: Imagine Song by Macifif

Olivia is part of the Class of 2024, and her enthusiasm for this milestone year was truly contagious. As we ventured through the Arboretum, she told me about her Senior Sunrise that day at the football stadium, inncocent fun pranks by the senior class, and upcoming milestones like the last homecoming, and her plans in the medical field after hogh school. Golden rays of the sun played peek-a-boo through the lush greenery, creating the most magical setting. It was a day filled with laughter and candid moments.

When I asked Olivia about her choice of location, she knew she wanted as much greenery as we could possibly find in Arizona- and Boyce was the top of list for this reason! Even after the end of what I call “crispy season” (summer) the Master Gardners at Boyce has tropical lush forest areas, huge trees, and huge flower bushes everywhere still in a spring like bloom. The variety of backdrops at the Arboretum allowed us to capture Olivia's portraits in many ways. From a serene ivy covered veranda to vibrant wildflowers, each location added a unique touch to her senior photos. We even managed to sneak in a few shots amidst the iconic cacti, creating a beautifully harmonious blend of nature and Olivia's spirit.

Olivia's vibrant personality shone through in every frame. Her smile was infectious, and her eyes sparkled with excitement for the future. It was clear that she was savoring every moment of this day.

I love my job folks! Honored that Olivia nd her mother Jaime chose me for these milestone photographs! Olivia's session was a wonderful reminder of the significance of capturing these cherished moments as we transition into new chapters of our lives. It was a true honor to be a part of her senior year, and I can't wait to see where this Class of 2024 grad will go.

The best times to take senior pictures in Arizona | Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

Senior year is a momentous time in every student's life, and one of the most cherished traditions is capturing this milestone through senior portraits. In Arizona, with our diverse landscapes and unique natural beauty, I make selecting the best time to take senior portraits easy as I have already considered weather, lighting, and different areas that express the character of our state - so that I get you the best results in stunning photographs that truly capture the essence of the senior and this desert wonderland.

Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

Arizona is known for its arid climate, characterized by hot summers and mild winters- and its a senior photographers paradise with all the variety and availability to have sessions year round. To avoid the scorching heat of the summer months, it is advisable to plan the session during the fall, winter, or spring seasons, or to have a summer session in studio or a unique indoor location. Autumn offers comfortable temperatures, golden foliage, and vibrant colors, providing a picturesque backdrop for portraits. Winter brings cooler temperatures, which can be a refreshing change, and the possibility of capturing unique shots against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains in northern Arizona. Spring brings the bloom of desert wildflowers, offering a vibrant and colorful setting for senior portraits.

Phoenix Az Graduation Pictures High School Senior Portraits Anjeanette Photography

A crucial element to consider is lighting and time of day. Arizona is known for its abundant sunshine, which can create harsh shadows and intense highlights during midday, which is why I avoid middle-of-the-day sessions unless they are indoors.

To achieve softer and more flattering lighting, I highly recommend scheduling the session during the "Golden Hour." The Golden Hour refers to the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset when the light is softer, warmer, and more diffused. During this time, the Phoenix desert landscape is bathed in a beautiful golden glow, creating a magical atmosphere for senior portraits. This enchanting light adds depth, warmth, and a touch of romance to the photographs, enhancing the overall aesthetic.

Golden Hour

Warm golden light, high contrast, stunning glow….The best light of the day for outdoor shoots! I start golden hour senior sessions two hours before sunset to maximize the wow! Awesome for highlighting the best skin, colors, and dimension in photos.

 Sunset photos

Just as or after Golden Hour when the sun dips behind the mountains surrounding the Phoenix Valley is prime time for striking sunsets. Never can guarantee- but when there is on Arizona has the best!

Blue Hour after Sunset- NIGHT SHOTS

Dramatic, bold, colorful- lights! Night shots as unique as you are a great opportunity to shine. This is at the end & included in most action sessions- if we plan it right we can have Golden Hour, Sunset, and Blue Hour night photos in one session!

Sunrise/Morning Sessions

Beat the heat! Cooler temps and cooler colour tones- this is the best light in my opinion for Light & Airy style photos. Sunrise sessions start 15 minutes before sunrise so no sleeping in hahah

Studio or Indoor Sessions- Anytime!

A studio or interior space can capture YOU and your vision without distraction or crowds. From an epic shoot at a museum or theatre (click to check out unique spots)

to a classic fashion studio (studio portfolio here) we can get all the looks- while enjoying air conditioning!

It is important to consider the personal preferences and style of the senior being photographed so I like to collaborate with the senior and their family to understand their preferences, interests, and aspirations can help in choosing the best time and Phoenix or other location for their senior portraits.

Some individuals may have a preference for a specific season, while others may have a particular vision or theme in mind.  This collaboration ensures that the photographs reflect their unique personality and create a lasting memory of this significant milestone. I would love to bring your vision to life and be a part of your senior year with senior photos that express you!

Hannah Arizona State University Class of 2023 | Phoenix Senior Photographer Anjeanette Photography

You guys! I had the most amazing time capturing Hannah's senior portraits at ASU's Tempe campus! The vibe was just perfect, and we kicked things off at the Old Main fountain, which is like THE spot for senior pics. The iconic champagne spray and hoping in the water is a Sun Devil rite of passage. Hannah looked incredible in a chic black dress, and her energy was totally contagious.

Hannah's graduating from Arizona State's College of Art and Design with a degree in graphic design. Can we talk about how impressive that is? She tackled college during the whole COVID craziness and came out shining. Seeing her now, so ready to take on the world, is beyond inspiring. It's wild to think back to when I first moved to Arizona and did her high school senior photos. Watching her grow and achieve so much has been a total privilege.

I first met Hannah through the Sandra Day O’Connor band and color guard, where she's still rocking it as an instructor. I was lucky enough to be her high school senior photographer as well! She had this spark, this energy that was so infectious. Now, fast forward a few years, and here we are again, capturing her college senior photos. It’s incredible to see how far she’s come and how much she’s grown.Plus, she's part of the Fenix ASU World Class winter guard team which I absolutely love capturing at events like WGAZ competitions. The dedication and passion she has for these activities are evident. It’s not just a hobby for her; it’s a huge part of her life. Watching her perform, you can see the love she has for it, and it’s clear she puts her heart and soul into every routine. Getting to know Hannah and her mom, Kristi, and seeing her and her sister grow up has been one of the best parts of my job.

The Tempe campus was such a beautiful backdrop for our session. The architecture, the greenery, and all the students hustling NOT around in the photos was the best. Hannah choose the absolute BEST time to have her photos- right at the begining of spring break! It left her with plenty of time to go play the next day and weeks- but it also gave us an empty canvas (punny arn’t I) and cool sweet weather without waiting in line at popular spots like Palm Walk and The Normal School steps. The light was just right too, making Hannah glow even more. 📸✨

Kristi joined us for the shoot, and it was so heartwarming to see their bond. She’s been there every step of the way, cheering her on and helping her navigate through the challenges.We laughed about how fast time flies since the high school shoot. Kristi's support has been huge for Hannah, and it was great to capture that connection in the photos. During our shoot, we talked about her college experience. COVID-19 definitely threw a wrench in things, but Hannah didn’t let it stop her. She adapted, found new ways to stay creative, and kept pushing forward. It wasn’t easy, but she made it work. She shared some stories about virtual classes, group projects done over Zoom, and the challenges of staying motivated when everything went online. It was a tough time for everyone, but hearing how she handled it with grace and determination. Kristi’s pride in Hannah was clear,i t’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do.

One of my favorite moments from our shoot was when we used smoke grenades for some of the photos outside of the Graduate Hotel on campus. Back when Hannah was in high school our session together had one bummer- the two smoke grenades I brought were duds :( I wanted to be sure to bring some for the session! As I set off the grenades, the colors swirled around Hannah created this magical, almost surreal atmosphere. Even though they kinda have a mild sulfur smell, it was like we were in a dream ha. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and I think they perfectly capture Hannah’s vibrant personality and artistic spirit.

Hannah's story is all about determination and talent. Balancing school, teaching, and competing in winter guard is no joke, but she nailed it. As we wrapped up the shoot, I felt so proud of all she's achieved. 🎓👏 This session wasn’t just about photos; it was about celebrating Hannah's journey and the bright future ahead. The joy, laughter, and memories made it unforgettable.

Hannah’s faced so many obstacles, but she’s come out stronger on the other side. Her determination, creativity, and positive attitude are truly admirable. She’s not just a talented graphic designer and performer; she’s an incredible person with a bright future ahead.

I'm so grateful to have been a part of it and to capture these moments for her and her family.

Hannah, if you’re reading this, know that you are a rockstar! Keep shining, keep pushing forward, and never stop chasing your dreams. The world is lucky to have someone as talented and driven as you. I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do next. Here’s to new adventures and endless possibilities! 🌟📸✨

Old Main and the iconic Normal School steps have an incredible mix of history and charm that makes it one of the best places to take senior photos on campus. It’s especially stunning in the fall when the light catches the brick and makes the whole area feel warm and inviting. These steps are a hot spot for ASU grads, especially in spring. By April or May, it’s packed with seniors waiting their turn for photos, so planning a fall OR end of February, March, or spring break session means avoiding those long waits. Trust me, it’s worth it.

For those of you planning your own ASU senior pictures, here are a couple of tips based on Baylee’s session. If you’re thinking of ASU’s Tempe campus, plan ahead! Fall is a great time because the crowds are smaller and the weather is much more forgiving. By the time spring rolls around, Old Main and Palm Walk get pretty packed with grads waiting for their turn at these iconic spots. If you want those classic shots without the stress, fall or spring break is the way to go.
