When my friend S’s mom told me about her upcoming quinceañera, I was so excited! Did I want to photograph S in her dress? Absolutely! After being in business for 17 years, there aren’t a lot of firsts left for me, so getting to photograph S in her quinceañera gown was extra special. I already knew she is an awesome young lady, but she really looked stunning in the deep red and gold dress she chose. Since I retired from wedding photography several years back, I never get to photograph fancy dresses anymore, so it was a nice bonus for me. While S was definitely the star of the show at our session, we also fit in some family photos while her big sis was home from college. We kept it fun and casual for the family photos, and I think they turned out so cute. The H family brings such great energy, and I love spending time with them. Now, onto the photos!
