Golden hour at Pismo Beach never disappoints—and it created the dreamiest setting for this senior photo session. As a senior photographer for high school and college grads, I love capturing this milestone in a way that feels relaxed, natural, and true to you. From cap and gown shots to barefoot beach moments, Pismo Beach is one of my favorite places to tell your graduation story.




Based in San Luis Obispo, I work with grads from local high schools like San Luis Obispo High, Arroyo Grande High, Nipomo High, and Paso Robles High—as well as colleges like Cuesta College and Cal Poly—who are looking for timeless senior portraits in the most beautiful spots along the Central Coast.




If you’re ready to celebrate your graduation with beautiful senior photos at Pismo Beach, I’d love to help you capture this exciting moment. Whether you’re a high school senior or a college grad, let’s create portraits that feel timeless and true to you. Contact me today to start planning your session!
