Bonny Doon Senior Session

As we near the end of summer, I wanted to share one of my favorite senior sessions, as the time is upon us to start preparing for this years senior portraits. Last year I was contacted by a senior Fern, her and her mom who booked me all the way out of Sacramento, which I was so honored to collaborate and prepare. We scheduled to meet at Natural Bridges State Park in Santa Cruz, but once we arrived, the lighting, tide, and high crowds of people on the beach were less than ideal. We shifted gears and headed further north, where we ended up on a beautiful beach in Bonny Doon. The scenery was breathtaking, with high sandstone cliff walls, the trail was quite literally off the beaten track with it’s very own train track crossing. Our path to the beach was steep, but we welcomed the adventure, as we were surrounded by magic, as massive waves crashed against the shore, and the sky glowed from golden hour.
