Miss Kate | A Seaside Sunrise Senior Session on 30A

If you follow my blog, you know I have roots in Texas and Louisiana. So when I get to photograph people from these states, I just get giddy! Luckily for me, today was one of those days as I photographed the amazing Kate from the Lone Star State. She is my latest senior portrait model, and she is absolutely GORGEOUS!

A Sunrise Senior Portrait Session in Seaside, Florida

Kate wanted to capture her senior portraits in the charming coastal community of Seaside, Florida, and she totally rocked it! There is something truly magical about a sunrise session on 30A — the soft light, the quiet beach, and that golden glow make for unforgettable senior photos.

Perfect in Pink, Wonderful in White

Kate brought an amazing blend of outfits that ranged from perfect in pink to wonderful in white. She was the perfect model who belongs in front of the camera. I love these images so much that I had the hardest time narrowing down a few of my favorites to share.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them. Please check back for more amazing Seaside senior portrait photography sessions to come!
