OPRFHS Senior Photos | Class of 2021

Hi, I'm Kristen!
I'm an award-winning senior portrait and family photographer based out of Chicago and the San Francisco Bay Area. I love sunshine, cacti, chocolate chips, and a great cup of tea - but most of all I love photographing joyful clients. :)

Congratulations to Solana, my #KHPSeniorModelRep from Oak Park-River Forest High School! She has a special connection to the school so it was really fun to do her OPRFHS senior photos there in a location that was especially meaningful to her! Come check out her sunny photos from her cap-and-gown session!

She was a champion cap thrower!

And also cheerfully put up with me when I suggested she climb on top of a 3 or 4 foot tall sign – but was it worth it or was it worth it??

I love a good cap tossing photo – and Solana did a great job with hers! I also love her platform sandals!

One of my favorites from the whole photo shoot! I crouched down to block out the fact that the “R” in “River” is missing, and actually really love this little of sun flare – Solana loves the sun and it’s fitting!

Isn’t the light fabulous? Parking garage! Proof that pretty light can make pretty photos anywhere! I love her white dress; when in doubt for choosing an outfit for your photo session, go with white!! It looks great on everyone and photographs so well!

Another of my favorites; this expression is so her!

She’s got the walking-down-the-runway walk nailed!

I am in love with these!!!!!!???? …These photos are marvelous, I think they’re my favorite ones yet! Thank you!
