Aiden- 1 Year baby Portraits- Baby Photographer Santa Cruz

Just too cute for words. I love this age to photograph,  So many smiles! This is a great age to capture for a life time. Baby still has lots of his baby fat, that cute chubbiness and smiles that wish he would never grow older.


Seascape Resort Wedding- Santa Cruz Wedding Photography


 For the first time, we met a bride on her wedding day with nobody else in the room! April was the picture of composure – until her flowers showed up and the emotion struck. Wesley was definitely Mr. Cool, looking good and wearing a killer pair of pinstriped shoes. The toasts were amazing, including a stand-up worthy routine from the best man, and a stand-in singer for Wesley, as he took over the drums from the live band ensemble. The show continued with a three part dance exquisitely executed by the newlyweds. Even the first group dance was a coordinated line dance. We made a dash down to the beach for sunset including a Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride worthy zip down the hill – appropriate given the couple’s joint fascination with Disneyland.

Noe, High school Senior Portraits- california bay area


We started with Noe in the tall grass as she modeled her brightly colored skirt and shoes.  She had a great range of expressions, from a very soulful gaze to a bright, easy smile.  From there we went to the beach where her mother joined us and shared funny stories when she wasn’t admiring her beautiful daughter and the images captured by Annie.





 

High school senior portraits are so important. Its just one of those rare times you will be photographed by a true professional photographer and I am not talking about the school photographer. These senior portraits capture the personality of your child and who they are at this time in their life. Once they go to collage they start a new chapter on their own.

Amanda- High School Senior Portraits, San Francisco

Little dresses, big doors and a bit of fog made for a fun afternoon of photography in San Francisco at the Palace of Fine Arts.  Amanda was a bit tentative at first, but quickly gained confidence (and the attention of many tourists) as she posed for some stunning images in the rotunda.  This was a ‘Fashion Inspired Session’ – over three hours and a variety of outfits and locations including the PFA, Fort Point bunkers and Baker Beach.  The fog rolled in heavy, but retreated just enough to provide a view of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge as a backdrop while Amanda played in the water in her loose knit dress.  Her mom suggested a shot of her laying in the surf, and was surprised when Amanda agreed!  It made for a some great images, and memories.

Dallas- High School Senior Portraits 2013 - annie K. Rowland Photography


Dallas showed up from Modesto with a vehicle full of style consultants.  Ok, so it was his siblings, each with friends who came to play at the beach, and watch a movie on the sand at the boardwalk.  We chose locations that left the kids enthralled with the wildlife while letting us capture Dallas as the quintessential (?) high school guy – still waters run deep.  While he started out a bit nervous, by the end of the session, we got to see the real man as he relaxed and cracked as easy smile watching his little sister play at the edge of the breakers on the beach.
