OPRF High School Senior Photos

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. :)

When my client reached out to me it was evident that she wanted a mix of natural and urban settings. She was really excited to get her photos taken in fall – her favorite season!

One of my favorite parts of photography is being able to emphasize my client’s interests. In this case, the message was heard loud and clear: “Fall, but turn it up to 150%.” I got you!

We paused for a quick outfit change then grabbed some gorgeous photos with the leaves before moving on to a more urban location!

I originally intended to photograph the more urban backdrops in a different part of the town, but a train happened to be stopped on the tracks, cutting off that area of town! We walked around and chose the spots that had the best lighting and I love the looks we got!

My client was so good natured and down to try new locations! I appreciated her trust in me when we found unconventional spots!

The last bit of evening glow was so pretty with the orange of the leaves and russet tones in my client’s sweater!

We found this awesome suspension bridge that gave the prettiest leading lines!
