“They’re just pictures!” I hear this often. Sure, it seems like all we do is give high school seniors a few photos, but it’s so much more than that…it truly is an experience. I know you’re eager to get onto the next season in your life (Hello, college! Hello, freedom!), but I hope that you […]

High school sweethearts: maybe one of my favorite things! There aren’t many things that are more romantic than two amazing young people in love, and both passionate about their futures. This pair attends Yorba Linda High School, and they share a love of sports. One thing I really loved about them is that they are […]
