Sam the Grad | OC Family Photographer

Isn't Sam beautiful?  She asked me if I could shoot some pics with her parents on Graduation Day...her dad was going to be in town from over-seas for the occasion, and she rarely gets the opportunity to see him, let alone get pictures with him.  So of course I said YES...and wow, aren't they a good-looking bunch?  It was a pleasure photographing them...witnessing their silliness and giddiness together...  I am so happy to have Sam in my life!  She is the best babysitter and I just love this girl!  Congratulations on finishing high school and best wishes for a fabulous future!!!

Samantha - Class of 2012 | OC High School Senior Photographer

Sam was great to photograph! She was willing to try whatever I asked her to try, and has the most beautiful, sparkling brown eyes!

The day we met for photos was also the first day of the Festival of Children at South Coast Plaza...little did I know! So it was crazy there...PLUS my phone decided to break that day, and so I had NO way of calling them to find out where they were! Right when I was about to give up and go home, I decided to go back and look one more time. And thankfully Sam was patiently waiting for me up on the bridge and needless to say we were both relieved! :)

Here is a peek at our session...which one is your favorite?

Keoni - Class of 2012 | OC High School Senior Photographer

Remember that little cutie Kawika?  Well this is his big brother, Keoni!  There are 5 brothers in their family and they are all as HANDSOME as can be!  Keoni was a bit shy...but you'd never guess it from these images...look at his adorable smiles and his sparkling eyes!  Watch out ladies!  He was super patient with me and all my fat pregnant lady huffing and puffing...speaking of which...can you find me in one of the pics?  :)  Peek-a-boo!  Only 3.5 weeks left until baby comes!  Anyway...here is a peek at Keoni...

Thanks for being a good sport Keoni!  I know your mom is going to LOVE these pics!

Chad c/o 2011 Senior | OC High School Senior Photographer

I was so excited to finally get the chance to meet up with Chad for his Senior pics...even though graduation has already passed! Busy schedules and lots of June Gloom made it difficult for us...but, we did it!

I absolutely LOVE his red hair...and hopefully won't embarrass him too much by saying so! He was a good sport and hopefully had fun! Here are a few of my favorites:

FVHS Senior Rep: Mari | OC High School Senior Photographer

Mari is such a gorgeous girl...I don't think she even knows how gorgeous! I was so excited to shoot her because I knew she'd shine beyond belief! I love how her dark hair makes her clear blue eyes pop...and that alabaster skin?? I better stop before I give her a complex! Seriously though, I love this girl (and her family!) and loved our session together...Here's a glimpse at Mari:

Thanks Mari! I hope you had as much fun as I did! :) xoxo

Tyler - Fountain Valley High School Senior Rep | OC Senior Photographer

Meet Tyler, who is not only one of my Senior Reps this year, but is also my nephew! It was fun photographing him...I can't believe he is already a Senior! When I met him (before I became part of the Hanson family) he was only 8 years old! Crazy how fast time flies! Enjoy a peek at our session...

Thanks Tyler! Enjoy your Senior year!

Shainnen - HBHS Senior Rep | OC High School Senior Photographer

This sneak peek was a long time coming...! Thanks for your patience as I worked through a few bugs with switching over to a new computer and CS3 not quite cooperating!

ANYWAY...ok...prepare yourself for a gorgeous young lady! Shainnen totally knew how to work it...it was fun! She was modeling from H to T baby! (p.s. the new ANTM started last night! whoo-hoo!) Ok, sorry I get distracted easily. I am really loving working with HS Seniors...it's so fun!

Enjoy the sneak peek:

Shainnen, you are just lovely!  

Sabrina - Huntington Beach High School 2011 Senior Rep

Meet Sabrina...a gorgeous redhead who is one of my Senior Reps this year. She was a little shy at first, but she was a joy to photograph! We met in downtown Huntington to do a duo-session with her BFF Shainnen (her pics coming soon!) and it was a lot of fun. Loved her style and gorgeous eyes!

Carley -- Class of 2010 | OC High School Senior Photographer

Look at this gorgeous girl! I was so excited to get to take her photos... She graduates in couple weeks and I know her future will be as bright as her beautiful eyes and smile are... enjoy!

Thanks Carley!  I had so much fun photographing you!  Congrats on graduating!!!!!!!!
