If you haven't been hiding under a rock this month, you'll have probably noticed that Graduation Season is here.  Senior high school students and their parents are counting down the days until they walk across the stage in their cap and gown and get that diploma!  For many of these students it's their first major life accomplishment, and as such, it's a huge deal!  So I wanted to join in the love fest and celebrate the seniors that have been in front of my camera and some of which have also been a part of our lives, here in Denver.

I'd love to introduce you to Ms. C who is graduating from Thunderridge High School in Highlands Ranch in a few short weeks.  C was our very first babysitter when we moved into town and we are so thankful that her mom connected us before we even officially moved into town!  One thing I know about C is that she is one of the hardest working young ladies that I  have encountered!  In addition to managing school, she is a nanny for young children, loves hanging with her friends, and practicing yoga.  Ya'll, I really wish I could love yoga, but I always fall asleep during the class. Wait, I digress, so let me share some of my favorite photos from C's senior session.  I love that personalized senior sessions allow them to show every single aspect of their personality that makes them unique!  Enjoy getting to know C a little bit better, and for those of you that already know her, enjoy celebrating her achievement!

If you are noticing this gorgeous light, I forgot to mention that this was a sunrise session, which I had never ever done before, because well, I like to sleep in.  BUT, after trying this sunrise session, I was sold, and will definitely offer them to my seniors.  And who cares if I have to drink like 5 cups of coffee to get through the rest of my day.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with drinking more coffee, right?

This last set of photos on the bridge, were Mom's absolute favorite.  So where did they end up?  As the showcase photo on C's graduation announcements! 

Congratulations C, wishing you all the best as you graduate and start the next phase of your life! Thank you for being a part of our lives!
