EGRHS senior photos

Downtown Senior Portrait Sessions

This is a session I am very excited about. Even though I have photographed this family many many times over the years, this was the first time I really got to focus alone on Ashton and (hopefully!) photograph him the way he wants to be seen. I love when a person can relax and bring their true self in front of my camera and when that person is also a very talented artist with killer style and great attitude it is even better. Love you!

Ashton was photographed in Eastown and downtown Grand Rapids in June 2019 by Dena Robles. The session was captured on Kodak Portra 400 film with a Contax 645 and processed by IndieFilmLab.

Travel Sessions in Grand Rapids, MI

Last month I went back to Michigan to photograph high school seniors for East Grand Rapids High School Class of 2020. Even though I only lived and worked in Grand Rapids for 8 years, I feel like I have known these students their entire lives! It was great to come back and see everyone again. Here are a few favorites from my morning with Reece.
