Brooke Class of 2021 | Phoenix Senior Pictures | Anjeanette Photography Az

“To be who you are and become what you are capable of is the only goal worth living.”

— Alvin Ailey, American Dance Theater

Phoenix School for the Arts dancer Brooke was a joy to watch twirl and leap- and have a bit of a Disney princess moment with a roadrunner (name unknown) at the Desert Botanical Gardens. She absolutely glowed in the December afternoon sun as it drifted over the cacti in the Ottosen garden! Congratulations on your upcoming commencement and future adventures!

Music by: Sød Ven "State of Mind"

“Sometimes since I've been in the garden I've looked up through the trees at the sky and I have had a strange feeling of being happy as if something was pushing and drawing in my chest and making me breathe fast. Magic is always pushing and drawing and making things out of nothing. Everything is made out of magic, leaves and trees, flowers and birds, badgers and foxes and squirrels and people. So it must be all around us. In this garden - in all the places.”
― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

Kayla Class of 2021 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix Az

Absolutely amazing session with North Dakota Class of 2021 grad to be Kayla! This model & gymnast has Arizona in her heart and longed for the vibe of the desert to accompany her portraits- and she brought her own glow and free spirited beauty with her! She couldn’t wait to Wanderbabe it out onto the mountains surrounding the sun valley and explore the city of Phoenix with stylish outfits, hats, and a kick ass pair of Doc’s. Congrats Kayla and thank you for choosing me for your fun-tastic senior picture session!

Not much beats the vistas of Papago at Sunset-

love that soft peachy pink sky!

Class of 2021 | Your missing out on a lot- you don't have to miss out on Senior Pictures!

Class of 2021, like the seniors before you, so much has altered what was supposed to be one of the best years of your life. The celebration of friends & milestones after 12 years of hard work.

Of course, there is SO much more to come and this isn't going to stop all the awesome adventures that your life will bring. But it's hard- this is HARD NOW, a disappointing way to start your big year.

You don't have to miss out on every part of senior year! Stay connected with friends on social media, make memories, research colleges, or post-grad adventures & plan your senior pictures!

YES, you can still enjoy a fun senior photos experience that is safe, socially distanced, and still vibes epic! I can help!

FALL IS BOOKING FAST- NOVEMBER IS ALREADY FULL

GET THE FREE GUIDE & BOOK NOW!

Phoenix senior Pictures Free Guide!

Praying the world gets healthy soon, we all grow stronger, & you lead us into a better future...& that school starts back soon in REAL LIFE so you can get back and see your friends!

How FUN are IG REELS??? See you there!

Some fantasy edits I did during the hot summertime off season- just for fun! Usually I prefer to keep it natural and full of soft glowing golden light - sometimes it is just fun to play! If you want to see what you can expect from your session check here: Outdoor Portfolio

Class of 2020 Instagram stories | The details changed- your accomplishments haven't!!!

Cap and Gown sessions are some of my favorites. This year they are so bittersweet. This year...whew.
I am sure you are sick of hearing that you are resiliant, that you will overcome, that you will be stronger for it.
That is all true- but honestly? This year sucked. And this was supposed to be THE year right? You worked hard for 12 years and certainly deserved better. You should be celebrated and cheered. Cheering from the internet just doesn’t feel the same. I def feel a little lame typing encouragement from the couch instead of jumping up and down in a school auditorium or stadium- but I really really DO believe in you.
This class, this generation that won’t meekly sit by and ignore injustice. This generation that gives a you-know-what about each other and the earth and everything. So yeah maybe I sound like a rambling mom cheerleader but damn, boy- you rock! All of you!!! I do think you will prevail above and beyond complacent survival. Yeah yeah surviving is important. I don’t want just surviving for any of you. I want you to thrive. You will be stronger because of everything that has been and to bring better things out of these ashes.

To heavily copy/paste from “5 Ways Tragedy Makes You A Hella-Strong Person”
by Aly Walansky: “We never want to experience tragedy or see anyone we care about have to go through it, but it's undeniable that those who do suffer tragedy emerge even stronger and have a better grip on true happiness.

A study in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that exposure to adverse experiences may foster mental resilience and may make people less affected by recent adverse events. This goes to show that, in moderation, whatever does not kill us may indeed make us stronger. “

Congratulations #classof2020 Now go kick some ass!

Sierra's Wrestling & Cap N' Gown mini session! | Anjeanette Photography

Wrestling champion Sierra knows all about the grind of a tough season- the determination and grit to go through the fire and make the podium as a champion. this year, it wasn’t just the wrestling mat she conquered, her 2020 senior year proved to be a challenge she persevered with the most of the world. Only senior year did not end with the celebration or ceremony they deserved. Regardless of canceled proms, graduations, and important events to recognize a momentous time is a person's life Sierra and her classmates have shown their resilience to face uncertainty and pressure to persevere. The circumstance changed but the accomplishments haven't! Congratulations Sierra on all of your hard-won achievements, diploma, and awards!! Now go conquer the world!

“A pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty. There is always something valuable that can be derived out of difficulty, adversity or change.”

Maria Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

I am so thankful Maria and I finally got to get together for a safe in the sun social distancing senior session before she heads off to Rice University! The Class of 2020 has had a wild ride navigating a whole new world of pandemics and epidemics. Marias is ready to debate and lead the Z Generation to victory!

Normally of course we would already be way past senior season! I really wanted to extend it and make some extra spots after all these young folks have had to deal with this unique and challenging year from fears for health and safety, to raising their voices for equality. After everything else they didn’t have to miss out on senior portraits. The best is yet to come have no doubt seniors. Right now you are shaping the future... I cannot wait to see how you change the world for the better. But I will wait day by day bc obvs thats how time works hahaha!

Maria had her sunrise session last week - when the desert morning air is a little cooler and the sun is brighter! She brought music, books, laughter, and all the smiles! Desert sunrise morning sessions are fantastic for light and airy looks and glittery sands! Congratulations Maria on all of your amazing accomplishments!!! A very bright future awaits!

Brooke SDOHS Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Portraits Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

One of a kind, real-life superhero Brooke not only nonchalantly rocks a 55lb+ tenor drum set during marching band season- she also loves all the fishes and will be majoring in Marine Biology in the fall. Brooke had been planning her senior pictures for close to a year- she knew since her junior year she wanted to do them at the Scottsdale Odysea Aquarium and carefully got her ideas ready. Brooke will be a part of the Mariane Biology program at the University of Hawaii- her acceptance was a win for UofH because this young lady is a hard-working and bright kid- she finished in the top 10% of a graduating class of over 600 and was the recipient of many awards & cords from her school in academics and band. We started talking about plus planning her session in the summer of '19. We had no idea that a few months after the new year began all the things that would cancel priceless and irreplaceable events in her senior year of school. Much less postpone her portraits. Thankfully businesses like the Aquarium were able to quickly reopen with new safety procedures to protect the animals, staff, and visitors when the state reopened after the Cobid19 pandemic shut down. The class of 2020 missed a lot. So much h that cannot ever be replaced. While the loss of special once in a lifetime pom and circumstance obviously pales in comparison to the losses of life and upheavals in our country from the disease and distress of a society unequal in it's care, liberty, rights, and compassion for people of color- it was still a loss that should not be taken lightly. Thankfully, senior portraits are one event seniors do not have to miss out on. While not every school will walk, and those that do have abbreviated telecast or social distancing ceremonies- a sense of celebration and closer is very possible in senior pictures. The Class of 2020 will have an amazing story to tell of perseverance and grit- and hopefully the triumph of taking care of each other with compassion and justice. Congratulations Brooke on your graduation, many honors, and acceptance into the college of your dreams! I can’t wait to see where your adventures take the new Jacques Cousteau!

We enjoyed the last of the cool breezes in Arizona for Roxy's senior portrait session. And what a gorgeous day with a gorgeous senior! This Chapparel Class of 2020 grad was ready to celebrate the end of her grade school career...and the end of an 'interesting' senior year to say the least! We chased the golden sunshine across the Phoenix skyline from Heritage Square to Steele Indian School Park accumulating in an amazing sunset over the Steele fountain. She rocked her session with five killer outfits and amazing smiles! Congratulations Roxy, on your accomplishments graduating from high school and on your next adventures!

Class of 2020 senior skip day champions- event cancellations do not mean you have to miss everything about senior year! Find the joy and zoom your friends- virtual games and hugs- get through these uncertain times together! When things are back to 'normal' and it is safe, we can reschedule and plan those special events as much as possible. If prom and graduation are permanently on hold- we can always have an amazing portrait session in your formals and caps and gowns when it is safe for everyone. This is a momentous time in history- it will be talked about for generations. Feeling broken-hearted that so much has changed- from sudden goodbyes to realizing the last time you were on campus already happened- that is normal. It's ok to feel grief, to mourn that loss. Know that like these hard times, that sadness and grief will not last. Be gentle with yourselves, know you are loved. Do what you can from online learning to personal enrichment, to naps or tik toks and Animal Crossing to take care of yourselves. Find ways to have peace and serenity. Journal these moments in writing, video, or art. You still have the power to make positive memories. With the stay at home order lifted in Arizona, hopefully, we reduced the curve to allow for better care for all and are all better equipped to fight this pandemic and win....the news can be scary and overwhelming, but I am constantly uplifted by stories of people helping each other, lifting each other up, and the essential workers from health care and first responders to grocery employees who are saving lives! In all the shuffle to prepare and social distance, the Class of 2020 experienced a tremendous loss. Health and safety are paramount- but the memories of a senior year lost have also been traumatic. Senior year memories are something many folks carry with them their whole lifetime. These seniors won’t have all of them. They shouldn’t have to lose all of their senior year experiences - I am so thankful that with a long lens outside I am able to provide one important of the big year- senior pictures 🧡 Stay safe 2020- you matter no matter what has happened. Your achievements have NOT changed just because the circumstances around them have!

Jason Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It’s gallery delivery day! As Jason’s mom said I was absolutely teasing them with sneak peeks on Instagram of Jason’s senior picture session- I am so excited about how great Jason did and some of the images captured for him! We had a warm but gorgeous Arizona day last week when we finally got o to have Jason's rescheduled senior portrait session. Starting at the ASU Grant street studios and ending at Papago, I got to know this dynamic senior and his family amidst the reopening of our city and state. Jason impressed me with natural smiles and ease in 100+ temps- never let em see you sweat! While Jason did a fantastic job for his portrait session we were all the most excited to get to the track for some sport action shots of Jason biking! Jason's ride looks like a mountain bike with killer suspension, giant tires, and the ability to dirt jump and basically drop off of ...MOUNTAINS! Crazy being right next to a bike falling that far and fast when it whooshes past. The course he uses has trails with tight curves, rough and smooth transitions in terrain, and multiple hard-packed dirt ramps that he propels over to fly through the sky- all overlooking the skyline of Phoenix. Luckily for me, we got a fantastic sunset at the end of his session so I was able to get a variety of sky colours as he shot off of hills and ledges! Congratulations Jason, on your accomplishments graduating from high school and on finding something you love like biking- doing what you love is one of the greatest gifts. It's obvious how much time, hard work training, and effort you put into making soaring through the air look effortless. Keep that passion for life wherever you go on this adventure of life!

Taylor Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It turns out that I actually saw Taylor about a year before we ever met! We were chatting about her love of theatre and performance and dreams of acting in college. Taylor is an accomplished actress who has performed in local youth theatre groups as well as at Sandra Day O’Connor where my own kids attend school. The theatre productions at that high school are not like the plays and musicals we put on when I was in hs- they are extremely professional and have amazing production values. That got us talking about favorite musicals, and I mentioned a few recent ones I had been to in NY and locally, including Sister Act at The Arizona Broadway Theatre that friends from church treated us to- it turns out I had already watched Taylor perform as a part of that ensemble cast!!

Taylors brought a vintage vibe to her session, with her favorite records from Billie Joel to Carole King to Fleetwood Mac with her retro sunglasses- she was so effortlessly cool. For the perfect backdrop, she had her sights set on Mill ave with its local indie bookstores and classic flashback style movie theatre - plus Sparky's ice cream parlour.

We soaked up att the sights from tiny garden nooks to parking garages with stunning views of ASU and Gammage before heading over to the Tempe Arts Center for a peachy rose sunset by the water. One fun item Taylor and her mom planned were bubbles- she loves them, and what a way to blow your cares away after a disappointment than colorful bubbles. Bubbles don't fix problems obviously, but they sure speak to the resilience of Taylor's spirit in far less than ideal circumstances. She hasn't totally made her mind up about which college she will be pursuing next year- and with so many universities postponing events it has been hard to get all of the information and auditions in to make a choice. This class of graduating seniors has had so many setbacks and pivots disrupting their lives- yet they are all seemingly taking it in stride. They have adapted to the new normals with amazing recovery rates from grief and are comfortable with their emotions and taking on hard challenges head-on with a sense of humor- anticipate remarkable things from them in the years to come. No pressure ;)

Taylor you are a star, cannot wait to see what you tackle next year and beyond!

“Seventy-five years ago, a generation found the clarity and resolve needed to save the world. Another generation of young people is now on track to do the same.

We’re now witnessing the emergence of a new generation of equal moral importance: a Greatest Generation 2.0. This generation is seeing with clear eyes that they are living through yet another existential crisis that threatens all life on Earth: a global climate emergency, (not to mention the Coivd 19 Pandemic and possible second great depression)

Crisis that too many of their elders have chosen to ignore or deny. But as the seas rise, so will this cohort of young people. The best thing the rest of us can do is to help them win.””

— Jaimal Yogis

Back when we had this session I had no idea it would be my last for....months? It was the middle of what should have been a busy senior season with exciting grads to be getting photos to celebrate their 12 years of primary and high school. Photos for invitations and announcements. Photos to decorate grad party tables. So much has changed...so many of my seniors are waiting and on hold until everything is safe.

Max Liberty HS Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Phoenix

Met up with Max at DC Ranch earlier last month and he did a fantastic job posing, what a fantastic smile! Who knew then that his spring break would turn into senior year finished at home? Liberty grad to be Max is a roll with it guy however, his music and drums will get him through. I loved his Eddie Redmayne fashion model vibes! Great job Max!

While the COVID19 pandemic surrounds us, I am still working on sessions from weeks back before it all hit. So thankful for clients and seniors who have been able to postponed sessions for safety, and in accordance with the Stay-At-Home orders of March 30th. I can’t wait to meet up with them later this year! Also really blessed so many folks had sessions planned earlier before everything happened. Keep your chins up Class of 2020- roadblocks have never stopped you before. Use this time to plan . You are the most optimistic and driven digital natives ever born. You CARE about what matters, you are unique, authentic, creative entrepreneurs. You are a generation poised for success, and can strategically navigate challenges- even global pandemics- to your advantage. Got get it!

Harrison & Kylie Shadow Mountain Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

What a year 2020 has been- and it is only March! WOW, when we were taking these we had no idea what was to come in the next few weeks! The worries were far away and spring break had just begun... So thankful I was able to go ahead with this long ago scheduled duo senior pictures session before Covid-19 social distancing quarantine began! So much uncertainty and worry. Despite all the challenges we are facing now and may face in the near future, memories of our most valuable moments are important- they are worth holding onto.

Kylie and Harrison are high school sweethearts who wanted their senior pictures taken together. We walked around the Phoenix Desert Botanical Gardens on a golden light filled afternoon, capturing portraits of each of them separately and together in the cactus blooms of spring. We had fun laughing and posing, and smiling in the bright sunshine. While some things may be uncertain in the immediate now, in the fall these two are headed to ASU and the Navy with bright futures ahead! Their bond and these moments will not be forgotten. Both families are good friends, so joint sessions together was an obvious choice for them, making sure to ask me for photos of them altogether.

Class of 2020 -Hang in there. No words can replace prom or the end of your school year, but know that there will be light at the end of this terrible tunnel we are in. The future is yours and you will ROCK whatever comes next.

I love you all!

“There are fields of Gold behind the little house
Filled with the greatest of treasures
Bronze, Gold and Silver

Do you remember?
Remember our childhood, Our life’s

The shinning Silver sparkling in the skies
The brightest Bronze hidden under the ground
The greatest Gold glimmering through the fields

Can you see them?
Picture it in your mind

All the times we danced
Every time we laughed
Where we used to love

Or have you forgotten?
Forgotten the good, Forgotten the bad

Every memory
Every moment
Every word

I wish you’d remember
To turn back time, So you could take me

Take me to the gold
To the fields on a summers day
To our fields, our treasure

The Silver, The Bronze
The Gold

But the treasures gone
The house still remains
The fields just as empty as the day we left

Times have changed
Our life’s have changed

Our Silver gone dull
Our Bronze all rusted
Our Gold long forgotten

It was never there
The winds of time and turns of the earth have seen to that

But I remember
I cry for the children who found the greatest of treasures and those who lost it so soon after
And I dream of dancing and singing and running and laughter, of the treasures that lie in the fields of Gold.”

Teagan Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona

It is no secret that one of my favorite places to take senior pictures in Phoenix is the Desert Botanical Gardens- the gardens are so good to clients and photographers! Even popular spots become unique, even nooks and crannies that are my personal favorites are made new - the personality of each senior shines through! Teagan was no exception- her bubbly light and big gorgeous smile outshone the sun on this fantastic Arizona spring day! Teagan came ready with a plan, her mood board, and four awesome outfits, as well as her own camera so that we could capture senior year memories to express her artistic journey to graduation. Love that I get to be creative for a living - which is why I had so much fun meeting Teagan for her portrait session -she is a photographer and artist too!

Mya Class of 2020 | North Phoenix senior pictures by Anjeanette Photography

Absolutely fantastic senior portrait session with Mya last week! This bright and vivacious senior wanted a half the session outside with purple smoke and sunshine, as well as some indoor studio shots where she could show off her fashion sense with amazing poses and flair! She glows! If she ever wanted a modeling career, this lady has talent in spades. Mya is a young motivated entrepreneur who created the interview vlog blog ISSA MVT to showcase impactful individuals. Check out a few of my favorite of Mya's senior pictures taken in beautiful Anthem and my home studio in North Phoenix near Westwing Mountain.

Julia Class of 2020 | Peoria Arizona Senior Pictures by Anjeanette Photography Phoenix (Copy)

The mountains called Julia! Something adventurous and unusual- so we took a road trip to Rock Springs and Sunset Point for epic views and sunkissed wind in the hair moments. Julia is one of the esteemed Drum Majors at O'Connor, who helped lead her band in their return to Super State competition this fall. This spring she is performing in Regional concert band performances and auditioning for college music programs as a flutist.

Rock Springs (otherwise known as the "Pie Rest Stop" had little surprises around every corner, cute vignettes set up for weddings and events, tiny caves, and a mountain top view in the back. As well as excellent cream pie according to Julia and her family! After a little while, we raced the sun to the long grasses and vista just north of Sunset Point rest stop. It is no wonder why this spot is a favorite for photographers around the valley and beyond- and it was the perfect place to capture senior portraits of Julia who loves nature and the wind in her hair. It was chilly, but the warm glow of a deep sunset kept us warm enough until just after blue hour when we were able to get amazing views and sunbursts into the sky. I have often driven by this spot and longed for a session there each time. So happy that Julia felt the call of the long golden grasses there too and chose me to get photos of this special time in her life- graduating high school!

There has always been a place for rhythmic sounds that can communicate our feelings." Exploring your mind: Psychology

My daughter has a very hectic schedule. No, we really are not one of those who overschedule kid's, not that there is anything wrong with being an active family. She has passions and drive all her own thank you and we support them. But behind every drawing, every book or math problem has always been music. When daily life stress overwhelms her, she soothes with music either dancing with her headphones or drawing to music. When she is elated-music! No surprise she plays like a thousand instruments.

And in between, she puts up with me taking thousands of photos and documenting her passion and life. We had fun playing with a projector last week! On the occasion of Oonagh’s birthday, for the very very very tentatively titled "Oonagh's favorite songs" project we have been working on off and on for over a year. This in no way encompasses all the music she loves…hopefully the project will continue on!

I could not locate album artwork artists.

A little about the images I photographed: For the B0RNS album, we built the cover design set with nothing but painted paper- even the white shirt is white lacey paper! Ok, ok the suit is fabric, and her hair obvs. Next for the remaining album or single track art homages, we used a projector, not Photoshop. I love PS, this just wasn’t how we got the album art up for this ;) Other tools used were strobe Flashpoint falshes, a triangle prism, plastic sheets and blue gel squares. Originally the idea to do this began from recent experiments with gel lighting, then later I looked it up and saw that there is so much truth to the saying "there is nothing new under the sun"- because it seems like everyone is getting some awesome artistic photography going with projectors recently!! Heck yeah! Don't worry about that, don't let the fact that there is nothing new that hasn't been done discourage you. Do it anyway, play with your art because it has never been done by YOU, and your voice like music is what unites us. SO, ANYWAY, I was checking out some Jake Hicks gel lighting tutorials on ProEDU (as recommended by David Byrd) ...and I saw a Jake Hicks projector mini tutorial. Then I started playing! I held up a piece of clear plastic for the ghosty white in two of these, and a prism for the one (bouncing it off the projector light because I was standing right next to it in that one- don't think it would work from another angle bc besides the strobe to light to light her face no light in the room) So you can totally get flare and prism and those effects really easily in PS and I do all the time, art is art! We were just playing and sometimes its fun to see what can happen “in real life” I tried a projector that was basically my phone in a fancy cardboard box and it did NOT get great results. We used an Epson digital for this that I borrowed from my husband's studio. The colour was fantastic! I ran into issues Jake mentions like chromatic abrasion on wall image (esp with BW lines etc) and the ‘screen door effect’ where you see pixels so I pushed the projector as close to her as possible and unsharpened (blurred) the focus a tiny bit and that helps. I would love to try with a film slide projector! I still have slides of my old work!! One part I love less but is basically a PART you cant control is shadows- so she def is going to cast a shadow duh hahahh! I didn’t want just straight ahead perspectives however so ya gotta live with those. A few others I used a second gelled strobe and that was really great. Sooooo much angling so that the strobe doesn’t wash out the projection! We got clear mod heels and the white painter coverall from Amazon. It was the smallest they had but still 10 sizes too big for my girl so there are a lot of pleats and a tape belt. Smoke and mirrors baby. Oooh, I should have used some mirrors! Staring camera info (I changed it up as needed throughout- play with it!) iso100, 35mm, f/1.4-2.8, 1/200ss Epson printer tethered to Mac using HDMI cord. Sometimes we messed with the perspective and blur knobs. All rights and respect go to the music and artistic directors and original artists of the original images! DIrect credit as I could find it below each image, original images projected are only belonging to the artists created them and those they have agreements with etc. None of the original artwork projected belongs to me..
