Parky’s Pics Photography 2019 Senior Reps

Its Senior Sunday! I am busy shooting four senior boys this weekend, but wanted to share a session from a few weeks ago from Parkys Pics senior rep Shelby. We met in the Southern Humboldt area, and Shelby was looking for a more rustic look. I think we achieved that goal! : )

When should you book your senior portraits?

I was so excited when Ron contacted me about shooting Kyra’s senior portrait shoot. Tiffany Thomsen of Tiffany’s Sports Teams and Photos sent him my way.
