It might be raining buckets here in Eugene today, but looking at Clarissa’s gorgeous senior pictures, I feel like I’m surrounded by nothing but sunshine! It’s only fitting that her session be featured on a gray day like this, given how bold and colorful her pictures are. You might recognize this beautiful girl, as she is one of my my amazing Class of 2016 Senior Models. I have been so incredibly blessed by my amazing Senior Model Team this year and have LOVED working with them so much! With any luck, I’ll be able to get them all back in front of my camera before the year is over! I’m crossing my fingers!

Although she’s a West Albany High School senior, Clarissa travelled down to Eugene for her senior pictures. Her session took place in the morning on a gorgeous sunny day, which practically begged to be photographed. Depending on the overall look and feel my clients are going for, I typically change up the time of day that I shoot, based on the location and overall vibe. Clarissa is such a fun, carefree and cheerful girl, a morning session just made sense for her. Morning light is so pretty, I just love the results. Her beautiful, bright blue dress was equally as vibrant as the rich, lush colors of the location we shot at, which really completed the look of her senior session.

Clarissa, you are perfection, girl! Working with you is such a treat and I am so thrilled I was able to do so multiple times over the past year. You are the epitome of what Young & Free is all about and I love that about you! Thank you so, so much for choosing me to be your senior photographer and for being one of my awesome senior models! I hope you loved the experience as much as I did! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you- I know it will be amazing! Much love!!
