Dominique's Senior Session - Part One

With graduation just a few weeks away, high school senior Dominique found time away from 4-H and track to do her senior portrait session. Some of these photos will also serve in her graduation announcement.

As she specifically requested some shots that would not look like those her friends may have had done, we discussed a few locations that I was certain had not been the background for many senior portraits. On our way to one location, inspiration struck and we arrived at the Leal Vineyards.

The owner, Frank Leal, was really great, opening up his whole location (with the exception of the wine tasting room) to us to use.

We had an absolutely beautiful day which matched the radiance of Dominique's smile.




Frank suggested we have fun in the barrel room, I like this shot for both the colors and the name of the product.



Here she is sitting watch over the vineyard.



The amazing colors of the nearby flowers is just one reason why this is a popular place for weddings and events.




As she plans to go to college next year for liberal studies, the future is bright for this pensive teen.



Tomorrow, some more shots from our session including special wardrobe items only possible because we did this session so close to graduation.
