I'm pretty sure the Richmond Capitol is officially my favorite portrait location I've used to date. The gorgeous white backdrop, perfectly manicured lawns, and massive steps had me practically drooling. Months ago, I had a vision of hosting my cap and gown sessions here, and I have to say, it went off exactly how I imagined. The weather was flawless. It was definitely warm, but in no way unbearable, and there wasn’t much of a crowd either which was such a nice surprise!

I got to spend time with several different seniors representing four local high schools and one university. All of the seniors are set to graduate next week, and I couldn't be happier for them in this season of their lives.

I could see each one of them light up when I mentioned how close their graduations were. Some would talk about their college choice for next year with gigantic smiles on their faces. I remember being exactly where they were and how excited I was for the next phase of my life. The whole day made me super nostalgic and all warm and fuzzy about my high school and college graduations.

We had an absolute blast celebrating during our photoshoots. Confetti was thrown, college grads popped champagne, and everyone smiled from ear to ear about this chapter coming to an end and their bright, bright futures ahead.
