RVA Senior Photos | Deep Run High School Senior Photographer| Henrico, Hanover, Bon Air, Short Pump, Powhatan, Richmond, Virginia High School Senior Portraits |
As a high school senior photographer in Richmond, Virginia, every session I capture tells a unique story. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Ann Peyton, or AP as her friends call her. AP is a senior at Deep Run High School, where she’s been making waves on the basketball court. Not only does she play for her school, but she’s also been a dedicated AAU basketball player for years, and it’s clear how much she loves the game.
What made this session extra special was that AP was referred to me by her best friend Olivia, who I photographed not too long ago. There’s nothing quite like the trust that comes with a recommendation from a friend, and it felt like a full-circle moment seeing this connection between these two talented young women.
AP's session took place at the beautiful Tuckahoe Plantation, a location known for its rich history and stunning grounds. AP was really looking for a floral backdrop that would bring out the vibrant energy she has, and Tuckahoe delivered. We found the perfect setting with colorful flowers adding a soft but lively touch to the background, which complemented AP’s style choices perfectly.
For her session, AP chose three outfits that matched her personality: a classic blue dress, a lovely white dress, and a fun skirt paired with a cute top. Each outfit reflected a different side of her, and it was so fun to see how she transitioned between looks. Whether she was wearing the sophisticated blue dress or the playful skirt, AP was effortlessly stylish.
One of the highlights of the session was when AP asked to include her mom in a few photos. There was something so touching about that mother-daughter connection, and it was clear that they share a strong bond. Capturing those moments added such a meaningful layer to her senior portraits.
Aside from basketball, AP loves shopping, which definitely came through in her wardrobe choices. She was confident and relaxed in front of the camera, which made it easy to capture her true essence. Whether posing among the flowers or showing off her athletic side, AP brought her personality to every shot.
AP’s senior session was a beautiful reflection of her life at this exciting milestone. I loved working with her and can’t wait to see where life takes her next—whether it’s continuing to dominate on the basketball court or pursuing her other passions. It’s always an honor to be part of a senior’s journey, capturing these memories that will last a lifetime.
If you’re a high school senior or know someone who is, I’d love to help create your own personalized session. Let’s tell your story through beautiful, timeless portraits!
