Fall Senior Portraits in Tacoma
I could not wait for fall senior portraits in Tacoma with my fellow redhead! Rachel scheduled her senior portrait session for the first week in October because she loves fall and the colors of the season. She is all about cozy fall style and enjoying the perfect PNW climate. It was an AH-mazing day with gorgeous sunlight.
We started the day at Wright Park, before wandering the streets of downtown Tacoma near my studio. I love that Rachel trusted me to find the best spots in Tacoma for her outdoor senior portraits. I know this area so well and love showcasing it through portrait sessions! We chased the light, climbed fences, and even set off an alarm – oops! It was all in good fun and resulted in beautiful senior portraits.
Rare Beauty
Rachel has stunning red hair, blue eyes, and freckles. She’s also left-handed. This literally makes her one in a million! She has learned so much in her senior year and has gained confidence in who she is. I am so glad I got to capture her natural beauty in this fall senior portrait session in Tacoma.
Kara (HMUA extraordinaire from the AHP team) did Rachel’s hair and makeup, highlighting her natural beauty and features. Rachel wore her hair down in loose waves with soft, feminine makeup. This is one of the best looks for a variety of outfits. Rachel kept it casual for a few of her portraits in ripped jeans, a cozy sweater, and a jean jacket. We found the most amazing backdrop for her gorgeous yellow sweater: a red wall! I am all about contrast and complementary colors. We even lucked out with an awesome burnt orange wall and so many other fun things.
Future Plans
Rachel plans on studying nursing, and I know she will be an amazing registered nurse. She loves helping people feel their best, and genuinely cares about each person she meets. Rachel is so much fun to be around and makes such an impression by keeping everyone happy and laughing. She is also encouraging and loves motivating her friends to be their best selves.
Rachel’s role model is her mom, who encourages her to be healthy, positive, and loving. She brought her mom along to her session and we had so much fun! Her mom is a natural redhead too, and the three of us got along so well. Her mom even assisted with the reflector to make sure Rachel looked her absolute best.
