Sunset Senior Session

Senior session at sunset ocean city New Jersey

There are so many milestones in life that deserve to be recognized, and following tradition, I photographed a group of friends entering their senior year of high school together. What does not follow tradition for this session is the black sweetheart neckline prop and pearls borrowed from grandmothers seen in every high school yearbook from the 1950’s to present. I love traditions. But I also love showing people how to break them. This session was one of my favorites to date, because of their friendship. I can clearly remember how important my best friends were to me in those late high school years, and we grew into women who love each other just as much now as we did then. With so much excitement ahead of them, it felt so right to slow down and document where they are right now, celebrating their last year of school in their home town by the beach.

For anyone considering a session for high school seniors, check the slideshow at the end of the post to see how we incorporated some lifestyle images (very lightly posed) into this specific session. I loved this session so much and the sunset did not disappoint.
