Senior Sessions That Shine

Capturing Ethan Avalos’s senior portraits was such a fantastic experience! As a soon-to-be graduate from Bradshaw Christian High School, Ethan is not only preparing to celebrate the Class of 2025, but he’s also gearing up for an exciting future at Coastal Carolina University. He plans to major in Business and Golf, with dreams of managing a golf course one day.

A Family Tradition Continues

This wasn’t my first time photographing the Avalos family—I had the privilege of capturing his brother Andrew’s senior photos previously. It’s always such an honor to work with families again, and it was great to catch up with Ethan and his mom, Amy, at Cosumnes River Preserve. We spent a beautiful golden hour exploring the area, sharing laughs, and even had an unexpected encounter with a massive wolf wandering through the preserve! Thankfully, it just gave us a glance and moved on, but it definitely made for a memorable session!

Style on Point: Ethan’s Lookbook

Ethan’s wardrobe choices were on point and gave a great variety to his gallery. We started with a stylish, casual look featuring khaki pants, a sky blue collared polo, and crisp white tennis shoes. The light blue paired perfectly with the natural surroundings, creating a fresh and clean look.

For his second outfit, Ethan changed into blue jeans, a burgundy t-shirt, and a tan jacket with black tennis shoes. We also did a few shots without the jacket to show off a more relaxed vibe. This outfit was a great balance between sporty and stylish, and the rich colors stood out beautifully against the greenery of the preserve.

To wrap up the session, Ethan put on a lighter pair of blue jeans and his Coastal Carolina University sweatshirt—black with bold teal letters—and matched it with white tennis shoes. This final look was the perfect way to highlight his next big adventure and show off his college pride!

Throughout the session, Ethan was a natural in front of the camera—relaxed, confident, and just genuinely himself. It was also really fun listening to him and my husband chat about golf while we moved from spot to spot. You can tell he’s passionate about the sport, and I have no doubt he’s going to do great things at CCU.

Looking Ahead: From High School to Coastal Carolina

Congratulations to Ethan on his upcoming graduation and his bright future ahead! I’m so honored to have been part of capturing this milestone moment. Wishing him all the best as he heads to Coastal Carolina University!
