emily, a sweet ballerina | monta vista high school senior portraits

This had to be one of my favorite sessions of all time. Whenever a dancer calls for a senior photo session, my mind starts racing with all sorts of ideas… I just love the grace, poise, posture, and ease that dancers bring to a photo session. Emily also brought a super nice personality, great clothes, and a willingness to go along with some of my crazy ideas (like laying on a nasty stairway covered in cigarette butts and who knows what – but check out that radiant smile!)… Emily is amazing – her mom got a new job here in the Bay Area, so Emily moved to Cupertino all the way from Twin Falls, Idaho, for her senior year of high school. And she seems to have transitioned beautifully! Coincidentally, Emily and I have many similar tastes in music and well, all things French. Here are a few images from our session in the studio and downtown San Jose!
