So my seniors graduate in a month! I am excited for summer to come, but parts of me think I only have one more month to leave an impression on these kids. Lets be honest, I want to teach a lot more in my class than just how to take a good photo. I want…

One of the things I love about living in Whittier, is the plethora of beautiful parks. As I waited for Blake & Cristy to arrive, I had a chance to hike for a bit, so I could stake out the perfect locations for their Senior Portrait session. This park happens to be up the street…

[…] do their maternity photo session. I photographed this darling couple way back in 2010 when I did their senior portraits years ago. They had just started dating and thought it would be fun to do a senior portrait session […]
Every summer since I was 18, I have traveled the globe. Six days after I graduated from high school, I jumped on a plane with five of my best friends and took over Western Europe for six weeks. That trip planted an addiction in me; I got bit by the travel bug. Since then I have…

I say the Philippines! It’s a beautiful country and the people are so warm and generous. These photos are beautiful, Amber!

My guy has been to both (his mom is Filipina) and says that both are awesome. That is a hard pick. My dear friends and neighbors are 67 and still refuse to grow up, cheers to being a kid at heart. 😉

Life’s too short to buy a house, travel is much more worth it. 🙂 Our trip is either Europe or Australia this year. 🙂 Any tips?! 🙂 Love the photos!
There is only 27 school days till graduation! I’m not counting or anything. I don’t have a secret countdown on my desk. I’m not anxiously waiting to wake up every day at 9 am. I don’t secretly fantasize about going to the beach every day. And I’m certainly not thinking about summer vacation ALL ….

[…] two graduates were smart, because they took advantage of my End of the Year Special, so in a quick hour, we were able to get lots of great shots. Our session was short, but […]
I remember when I first wore heels and tried to walk. It was hard. I stumbled all over the place and thought for sure I was going to twist my ankle. I also remember the first time I wore a dress; it was to my senior prom in 1996. The dress went down to my…

I love these! You did a great job… beautiful colors and love their posing 🙂

of course I love these pictures… I never thought the little prom pictures taken at school were worth it… I did mine at the park too. I’m so glad I did too. This is such a great Idea!

lovely work! That location was absolutely stunning and perfect.

Great job Amber! This looks like it should be in Teen magazine! The girls look so happy and youthful. Ahh, those were the days … 🙂
God truly does miraculous things and the power of a simple prayer can never be underestimated! There is a reason that you went through this ordeal and it sounds like you have taken a lot from the experience already.I hope that your students can appreciate the life lessons you impart on them over the short time they are with you.
Oh goodness, this story is incredible. I love the photos too! I went to Peru on a mission trip, back in 2000. Beautiful country, I wanna go back. 🙂
Wow, Amber, that’s an incredible story! Thanks for sharing it. I wish you luck in reaching your students – such a wonderful but difficult age to get through sometimes!
