Meet Valentina!

Independent, adventurer, world traveler, Rihanna fan! Confident, bold, quirky, resilient. You are an incredible person and I’m happy to have met you.

You have such a timeless, classic sense of beauty. And the most angelic complexion ever!! Thank you for letting me take your senior pictures. I had such a fun time with you! You have a great laugh and I appreciated your light-hearted approach to senior pictures :) My senior portrait sessions are never serious (I don’t think I could make them serious if I tried, that’s just not in my personality, haha). Thank you for going with my humor and being willing to try some new poses!! As we saw, sometimes my camera can make even the most unassuming, non-photogenic locations look really good!! Remember how we were pleasantly surprised with the grassy location by the steps and then later with the green wall?! The green wall + green dress photos are definitely some of my favorites from your session! I love how they complement your beautiful amber eyes and your hair color!

I admire you for your adventurous spirit and your desire to get out there and see the world. The fact that you took a semester abroad in high school?! So brave. And it’s even cooler that you are taking a gap year to travel after you graduate high school! Sometimes I wish I would have done something like that! In doing so, you will garner experiences and memories that will set the foundation for the rest of your life. Please post all your adventures on Instagram so I can follow along vicariously :)

Have an amazing senior year!!
