Bay Area Teen Portraits : Art in the Garden

When I went to Ruby's garden for a cool, edgey teen photo session based in nature,  I knew it would be an artsy little place since her parents are both artists, but WOW did I love shooting in that little garden in Alameda!  Her father, Mark Wagner, is a Bay Area California concept artist who has sprinkled his own artwork as well as "found" objects" through out the yard.  Combining his eclectic art garden space with the beauty and natural grace of Ruby made for an awesome session - the kind that makes me feel good for days.  Thanks to Laurie and Mark for sharing their space and their gorgeous, funny girl Ruby with my camera!  Here are a few of my favs...

 

Bay Area Senior Portrait Photographer : Castro Valley Senior Portraits with a Horse

I have had some very fun assignments lately - and fortunately had a moment to blog about today's photographic adventure.  This morning I met Jess at her stable in Castro Valley for her Senior Portraits - which just had to include her horse Mariah. I was game - I love animals, and always strive to incorporate elements of peoples lives to create modern, cool senior portraits that capture who they really are. I am still editing this session but wanted to throw a few up here that caught my eye.

Now on to finish editing and uploading my Puparazzi Portraits for the East Bay SPCA - 20 dogs!

Bay Area Teen Photographer - Studio Portraits with Guitar

Elizabeth wanted to do her portraits in studio, and she brought along this guitar which is one thing she loves most. We had a great session and got some cool shots that really captured her relationship to her music.

Bay Area Teen Photographer - Bennett's Urban Teen Photography Session

Wow!

This session was wicked fun! Bennett has a unique sense of style which works very well for a little urban industrial teen portrait session.  I have worked with Bennett's phenom mom,  spunky jazz vocalist Natasha Miller, for years and have watched Bennett grow up - but this girl has grown into quite her own person. I will load more of Bennett's session on my facebook fan page - so if you want to see more become a fan and  check out her fb album there...

 

Amanda's Amazing Senior Portrait Session and Quote Book

I am so excited to be sending out Amanda's Amazing Senior Portrait Album!  

We had so much fun at this session - which included some studio, some urban and some SF beach locations  - and plenty of clothing changes which Amanda was happy to accommodate!  This girl brought two suitcases full of outfits, shoes and jewelry.  And did I mention that Amanda drove all the way down from Oregon to do her studio + urban senior portraits with me?  Wow, was I flattered! 

For her custom designed senior portrait album, Amanda provided me with some cool quotes that speak to who she is and what she is about, and we put it all together with a vintage art flair into a totally cool art book.

I have linked a quicktime slideshow of album but unfortunately the resolution does not allow for easy reading of the quotes, but you can view the cover and pages of the album from the link here...
