Are College Grad Photos a Thing?!
College Grad Photos: Are They a Thing?!
Yes, college graduation pictures are indeed a thing and a popular tradition among college graduates. Many students and their families choose to commemorate the milestone of completing their degree by taking formal graduation photos. These photos often feature the graduate dressed in their cap and gown, posing alone or with family and friends in front of iconic locations on campus or other scenic spots.
Graduation pictures serve as a visual representation of the accomplishment and mark a significant moment in a person’s academic journey. They are often shared on social media, sent to family and friends, and displayed in homes as a proud reminder of the graduate’s achievement.
Some individuals also hire professional photographers to capture high-quality images, while others opt for more casual snapshots taken by family members or friends. Additionally, many colleges and universities offer photography services during graduation ceremonies or provide designated photo areas on campus for graduates and their families to capture the celebratory moments.
Overall, college graduation pictures are a cherished tradition for many, serving as a tangible keepsake of a significant milestone in their educational journey.

Senior Session | Miss Nellie’s Pretty Place & Connally HS | Avery B.
Miss Nellie’s Pretty Place & Connally HS
Senior Photos
One of my favorite places in Waco is Miss Nellie’s Pretty Place. When the fountain is on and the flowers are out, you won’t get better outdoor photos. So, when Avery (Class of 2023, Connally High School) picked the spot, I was so SO happy.
Avery’s bright bold colors went perfectly and I loved how her beautiful blue eyes popped.




Avery has a wonderful attitude and amazing dreams. I am looking forward to hearing about her making those dreams come true.
Go, Cadets!!

What To Expect in a Senior Session
Are you wondering what to expect during a senior photo session? This post helps bring that into focus! The focus is on you, having fun, and making memories.
Read on!

Before the Day
Having your Senior Portraits taken is so much more than just a photo session, it’s a rite of passage. Before your session, we can schedule a personal consultation to discuss what you want out of your session.
We’ll talk about locations, style, weather, outfit options, collections to choose from, and all the details of the session. We will also set up an appointment for ordering your photos so on the day of your session you can focus on having fun and we will focus on creating amazing photos.
The Day
On the day of your shoot, we’ll meet at your desired location. We’ll shoot and you’ll enjoy the experience. We’ll laugh and then laugh some more.
Our goal is for you to have an amazing time that results in amazing photos. Being in front of the camera can feel a bit awkward sometimes, but just try to relax and have fun and leave the rest to me.
After the Shoot
After the shoot, why not plan to do something fun? After all, you’re already going to look and feel incredible. Plan dinner with someone special or your family or have a girl’s/guy’s night out. Make the most of your look and experience.
