Senior Photographer Livermore, CA | Part 2 of 3

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. :)

The variety of backgrounds around town makes me so happy to be a senior photographer in Livermore, CA! Here is part 2 of 3 of this client’s gorgeous three-hour photoshoot! This park has a lot of beautiful location options going on: views of Mt Diablo, vineyards in the distance, golden hills and barbed wire for a rustic feel, and gorgeous olive groves.

Love those beautiful Livermore Valley hills in the distance! Nothing quite says “home” to me like those gorgeous golden hills! Incorporating iconic Livermore, CA imagery like this in high school senior photos really brings the vibe of “this is where I’m from!”

Also, it was a very windy day, but that lead to some pretty, dreamy movement!

Barbed wires plus black and white edits. A match made in heaven!!

Look at this view! It has it all – golden hills, vineyards, the Livermore valley, and Mt Diablo in this distance!

I was totally lying on the ground behind the bench for this shot…this is why photographers show up to photoshoots wearing yoga pants. ?

Next stop, these beautiful olive groves! If you look closely you can see the tiny baby olives!

I got a pretty cool effect on these images by shooting through the olive branches!

Favorite right here!! Her mom helped me out a lot with these shots – don’t be surprised, parents, if I put you to work during senior photoshoots!

Nothing says Livermore quite like these golden hills and olives. Add in some oak trees and vineyards and we’ve got the whole set!

Keeping the hair out of her eyes, but it also turned into a sweet black and white shot with some attitude.

Here’s what my client had to say about their photos!

Too many hearts (favorites) to count!
