How to Celebrate your College graduation in style | Olvera Photography

“Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all, surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don’t see it yourself.” -Edmund Lee

When I came upon this quote I immediately thought of Zoheb. College is hard. College is stressful. And it is even harder when your parents are not there. Zoheb’s family is in India and were not going to be able to make it to his graduation at The University of Texas at San Antonio so not only did he have finals to deal with but also the fact that he would be crossing the stage and not see those happy tears and the proud faces of his parents. His parents still are his number one fans along with his girlfriend Mubeena, his girlfriend, who is the one who surprised Zoheb with this photo session!

Class of 2018, we are fully booked – Now booking Class of 2019 Seniors

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” ― Mary Oliver

I love this quote because this is something we love to hear our seniors talk about – their plans for the future! We aren’t just taking your picture, we are documenting their life at that very moment. The moment when there are endless possibilities and the future is a blank canvas where you can set out to paint it any color you like! It was such a pleasure photographing Chrissa. In fact, we had so much fun photographing her the first time that she asked us to photograph not only more photos – this time with her soccer gear but also her prom portraits. Senior year is the only year where you can still get away having fun as a kid and still be respected as an adult (finally!!) so why not capture every single memory possible. We are so excited to do some fun sports photos with Chrissa later this month and her Canyon High School Prom photos next month!

Marshall High School Senior Portraits | San Antonio Senior Photography

Kyra’s Senior Photos | San Antonio, TX. Senior Photographer

Natural beauty. Kyra is such a beautiful young woman who is not only a talented track runner at John Marshall High School but is going to be serving our country by joining the U.S. Navy this year after graduation. I love talking to Kyra, she knows what she wants and her goals and dreams are so inspiring to hear. She is quiet but when she talks about her future, I love how her eyes light up and how she speaks with confidence and is eager to explore new opportunities.

I absolutely love Kyra’s beautiful hair! I told her she has a Julia Roberts thing going on. She’s not much into makeup and normally rocks the natural look, but we always suggest professionally done hair and makeup for our sessions. You are only a senior once and we want to help you celebrate this special milestone. It’s so much fun to get pampered, so why not! We were so happy that Urban Provisions boutique wanted to be part of our session and brought over some fun and cute clothes to play with! If you haven’t checked them out, be sure to next time in you are in Old Town Helotes.

Downtown San Antonio Senior Portraits| Texas Senior Photographer

Catana’s urban editorial/fashion photoshoot

Catana. This girl has such raw beauty and such an amazing personality. We had so much fun playing dress-up, blasting Halsey on Pandora, and eating ice cream.

We started off in the studio, where my good friend, and talented hair and makeup artist, Dora Vera of The Look Studio met us. We also had Sandy, owner of the cutest little fashion boutique in Old Town Helotes, Urban Provisions provide some fun outfits to play with! If you haven’t checked out these two ladies- it’s definitely something to add to your to-do list this weekend! After we had fun in the studio, Dora changed up Catana’s makeup for a night look and we headed downtown. First stop ice cream! We walked around downtown and had fun even after the sun went down. We love how adventurous and bold Catana was, she was up for anything and we had the biggest laugh when a random bus passed right by us giving us the perfect windblown hair! Speaking of hair- isn’t her hair absolutely gorgeous??? Thank you Catana for being so amazing and allowing us to photograph your senior portraits, seriously a fun day!

Klein’s Senior Portraits at the Historic Pearl

Senior| 2017| San Antonio Senior Portrait Photographer

With a name like Klein, how could you not be the center of attention? This stunning beauty is not only gorgeous but an amazingly talented volleyball player. Earning a full scholarship for volleyball to The University of Bridgeport in Connecticut, the pride on her parents face was indescribable. She’s so fun and easy going it was hard to not bombard the blog with her amazing photos. Even her sweet dog Farley was in on the action. The Pearl Brewery is one of our favorite places to shoot and I think Farley liked it as well. Isn’t he so cute??
