An Old Penitentiary Senior Session
Jordan | Timberline High School Senior
Oh! It’s your senior year. It’s the year you have been waiting for. It’s that time in your life where your childhood is coming to an end and now you have to start making big decisions. These decisions are the type of decisions that will shape your entire life.
I love senior sessions…probably because they bring me back to my childhood and all of those decisions that I once made. It brings me back to my child like self….the fond memories of high school sports, the wonderful friends and some memories of my favorite teachers. Every senior whom I capture often seems nervous about their future. Are they making the right decision? A gap year? College? Moving straight into employment? These are all very BIG decisions!
I met Jordan on the most perfect spring evening at the Old Penitentiary in Boise, Idaho. We rescheduled his session to the end of April in hopes that it would look a little more like spring in Idaho. It feels as though we have had the longest winter.
As a Boise Senior Photographer the Old Penitentiary is probably one of my favorite locations to photograph senior sessions. From the foothills, tall grass, barns, old doors, walking paths, stairs and beautiful landscaping this particular location offers a ton of variety!
Jordan is already almost done with his senior year. Jordan is a senior at Timberline High School. Not only is he a senior, Jordan, is a very talented musician. Jordan is a member in a band and is very, very active with the Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. Jordan enjoyed playing the flute and the piccolo. Although, Jordan did not play the flute for me, I have no doubt that he is very, very talented. In just a few short weeks Jordan will be walking across the Timberline High School stage celebrating all of his accomplishments. Jordan plays the flute and piccolo.
Balancing school, work, practices and concerts is not always easy, but Jordan really seems to have things figured out. This was my first time meeting Jordan. He is so kind and was willing to do anything I asked him to do. He brought a wonderful attitude and smile to his session. I had so much fun getting to know Jordan and capturing this very important time in his life.
I always love telling my clients that as a Boise Senior Photographer it is my goal to capture YOU and your personality during your senior session. I believe that Jordan’s personality shines in these portraits.
I had so much fun getting to know him and taking his senior pictures. Congratulations on your upcoming graduation Jordan!

Some wedding days are beautiful because of the scenery. Others are beautiful because of the people. Carson and Zaidah’s destination wedding at the Kendall Mountain Lodge in Silvertson, Colorado, was the perfect combination of both.
Nestled high in the San Juan Mountains, their wedding took place at a breathtaking ski resort venue overlooking some of the most stunning mountain views Colorado has to offer. As a destination wedding photographer, I have had the privilege of photographing weddings in many beautiful locations, but there was something truly special about this day. Perhaps it was the towering peaks surrounding us, the peaceful atmosphere of Silverton, or the fact that I wasn’t just their photographer-I am also Carson’s aunt.
Watching Carson grow from a little boy into the incredible man he is today has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Being trusted to capture one of the most important days of his life was an honor I will never forget.
