I truly don’t think I will ever be able to get over Melanie’s grad photos because they are simply SO classy and modern. Her outfits were so bold and colorful. Truthfully, I used to not recommend such bright colored clothing, but it worked so well here that I would LOVE another session like this. Each outfit was unique and looked so flawless on Melanie.
This grad photo session is one of my favorite sessions ever because of how classy and modern it was. I had so much fun working with Melanie because she was able to comfortably switch between different poses, so we were able to focus a lot on getting different locations and settings in her photos.
Melanie graduated from McCoy College of Business at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas, so of course we had to take some photos in front of the business building to highlight her degree! We started her grad photos just before golden hour hit. The lighting allowed for classy grad photos with strong colors that really emphasized the bold outfit choices she made. I will truly never forget her session because it was so unique and classy, and honestly Pinterest-worthy 😉
Pro tip: Make sure you and your photographer know when sunset actually is! In Texas, Daylight Savings Time can change the sunset and sunrise timing by hours. I’ve definitely made that mistake before where I forgot to check the new sunset time! I can always make it work, but if you want that golden hour lighting, make sure that you and your photographer are on the same page.
