Mia & Justin

Mia connected with me about graduation photos and mentioned she wanted to include her boyfriend, Justin. After our first phone call, I could already feel their love and positive energy, and I knew combining graduation and couples photos was going to be so much fun!

Mia had the perfect location in mind: Morro Rock Beach. With the ocean, golden light, and plenty of room to explore, it was an easy yes!

They showed up with caps and gowns in hand, ready for me to capture this HUUUUGE accomplishment. Justin took a few minutes to warm up to the camera, but once he did, the genuine smiles came naturally!

We mixed in couples photos with individual graduation portraits for both Mia and Justin. Their solo photos captured such an exciting milestone, but watching these two laugh, cheer each other on, and soak in the moment together was definitely one of my favorite parts of the session.
