Penfield NY Senior Pictures: Class of 2022, Bella

Bella is a Class of 2022, Penfield High School Senior. It was my pleasure to capture her senior pictures last summer. Here’s the quick recap!

Before hitting Ellison Park for Bella’s casual, fun, senior portrait session, we made a stop at her old Elementary School, just around the corner.

This was a first for me, but I loved the intention behind it. Bella and her mother wanted to show the scope of schooling in her senior pictures, from the beginning in Kindergarten to now as she graduates. They brought along her Kindergarten photo and we took some sweet photos with in her old stomping grounds as a kid.

The sentimentality continued, when she wore a t-shirt honoring her late grandfather and his passion for restoring old cars. We had such a nice night finding natural spots to compliment Bella’s beauty. Stay tuned for part 2, when we got mom in on the fun!

Congrats Bella!

Pittsford Mendon Senior Pictures: Class of 2022, Isabella

Pittsford Mendon High School Senior, Isabella, is an outdoorsy girl.

So climbing on a log barefoot in her senior pictures was totally normal for her.

I’m not sure if she was more at home by the water, or in the tree, but she was definitely a natural with her duck. She and Quackers the Therapy Duck donate their time to spread smiles. How awesome is that?

Thank you for such a fun and unique senior session Isabella, and congratulations Class of 2022! -Lori

Irondequoit High School Senior Portraits: Class of 2022, Claire

Irondequoit High School Senior, Claire definitely made my list of “top senior picture sessions.”

Not only did they choose one of my favorite hidden gems, Linear Park, but she wanted to get artsy with her senior portraits.

Jumping, walking, reading, photographing the natural world… it all just felt so relaxed. It felt like “her.”
And with that mega watt smile, just like her mom, we all had a great afternoon making senior pictures that they love.

Congrats Claire, I can’t wait to see what you do with that camera and beyond! -Lori

Fairport NY Senior Pictures: Nolan, Class of 2022

It was a true honor being asked to photograph Nolan’s senior pictures. He’s a Senior at Fairport High School, and I’ve been standing next to him on the line for years, practicing archery. So naturally, the range was one of our destinations for his senior session!

I also got to see a different side of Nolan when he demonstrated his drum skills. How unique are these senior pictures?

If you know him, you know that he is one of the nicest guys you will meet! I was lucky enough to photograph the rest of his family too at a separate family portrait session… so keep your eyes peeled for that post!

Congrats Nolan!

Victory NY Senior Pictures: Rachel, Class of 2022

Victor High School Senior, Rachel, says her favorite quote is “Choose happy.”

So what is that choice for her senior pictures? Answer: The water. Rachel is also a swim instructor, though that takes place in a pool. We both agreed that the park would make a better backdrop, so we went to Irondequoit Creek.

Though Rachel is very involved in high school clubs and sports (she went to states with her softball team), she opted to keep her senior portrait session simple. So we focused on that gorgeous smile of hers, and had fun outdoors. I’m a big fan of how these senior pictures turned out.

Please help me to say congratulations to Rachel, Class of 2022!

Fairport NY Senior Pictures: Class of 2022, Alex

I can’t tell you how many times I have driven by this horse farm on Turk Hill Road, but Alex is the first high school senior to bring me there for her Fairport senior pictures.

The summer evening at golden hour could not have been more picturesque. We photographed Alex with her favorite horse, and her dog. She rocked a gorgeous dress, cowboy boots and even camo for her senior pictures!

I remember getting to the end of her senior portrait session and not wanting to leave! What’s one more shot when it’s a perfect summer evening?

It was so great getting to know you Alex, congrats!

Victor High School Senior Portraits: Emily and Lauren

Capturing senior pictures for twin sisters is so much fun!

Their happy place is along the shores of Canandaigua Lake, where they rock in the swing there and talk about their lives. You might also spot them on a volleyball court at Victor High School. You don’t want to mess with these twins on the court.

Emily and Lauren were so sweet, two peas in a pod, as they say. We took some of their senior portraits in nature, and along the water front, where things are peaceful.

We wish both of you an awesome senior year, and beyond!

Fairport Senior Pictures: Class of 2022, Zack

Zack, from Fairport High School chose the pier at Charlotte Beach for his fashion inspired senior pictures.

We had so much fun incorporating everything from graffiti to trees to bricks into his senior portraits. Don’t you just love his style? His posing was effortless and natural.

This is how I hope it will be for everyone of our high school senior portraits. And if you don’t feel at home in front of a lens like Zack did, we’re there to help you relax into the session, and create amazing senior pictures.

This is just another example of how much I love my job. I got to spend the morning getting to know a great family, while walking along the beach and expressing my creativity by way of creating senior portraits.

Thanks all for the wonderful day, and congrats Zack!

Victor High School Senior Pictures: Mallory, Class of 2022

We love it when a family comes back to us for senior pictures with their newest high school graduate. It’s the best.

Mallory is a high school senior at Victor High School, and also a joy to be around. Fun, easy going, we had lots to talk about during her senior pictures at Schoen Place. We worked together two years ago for family pictures that went alongside her sister’s senior portrait session

I love a high school senior with fashion sense, because I have none! 🤣 Mallory wore every outfit with confidence and it showed in her senior pictures. I hope you like this sneak peek, and I can’t wait to work with sibling #3! 

Leave a message of congratulations for this Class of 2022 graduate!

Aquinas High School Senior Pictures: Rochester NY

When I think about perfect senior portrait sessions, they don’t get much better than Kylie’s! Kylie is a Class of 2022 senior at Aquinas High School.

The Webster Arboretum was the perfect backdrop for her senior pictures, and…oh look, how nice that there is a softball field next door!

Kylie is a three sport athlete, so we had a lot of fun incorporating her passions into her senior pictures. I love a mixture of posed and action shots, and so did Kylie!

And can you believe that sunset? Love it! Stay tuned for more of Kylie for part 2, when she was joined by her family for family pictures at Hamlin Beach!

Fairport NY Senior Pictures: Alicia, Class of 2022

Alicia has to be one of the sweetest high school seniors I have ever worked with on senior pictures.

She’s always up for anything, down to earth, and multitalented too! For her senior pictures at the Webster Arboretum, she rocked everything from her field hockey pinny to her prom dress. But don’t let those kind eyes fool you, from what I understand, she is pretty fierce on the field at Fairport High School!

Thanks for a fun night capturing your senior portraits, Alicia, and cheers to what’s next!

High School Senior Model Session

Molly's Inspired Senior Portraits in Fairport NY

Non-traditional senior pictures that were outside the normal box, this senior portrait session was really unique!

Molly brought a strawberry dress and her personal vibe to this Fairport senior session. As we worked together, it really felt more like we were creating art rather than senior portraits.

I think I’ll let her Senior pictures do the rest of the talking!

Congratulations Molly, and thanks for trusting Lori and Erin Photography with your vision!
