We were excited to do these La Quinta senior portraits for Christian, a class of 2020 senior at La Quinta High school.   We had fun taking his senior pictures on the La Quinta football field and in the studio.  Christian is successful both on and off the field, he is graduating with a white cap and gown because he has an overall GPA of 4.0 or higher!  As I said, he dominated on the field too.   Christian plays both sides of the ball, he is a tight end and a defensive end.  Christian wore number 8 for the La Quinta Blackhawks in 2020! 

Christian’s Lifestyle Senior Pictures

We started this La Quinta senior portraits session where he is most comfortable, on the field.  He went with a relaxed black hoodie and jeans.  We took pictures by the 20-yard line to show it off given he is a Class of 2020 senior.  We also took some of his senior portraits behind the seats to add some grunge and differentiate his pictures.  Christian’s mom shared that Christian typically hates pictures but he was excited at the idea of taking pictures with me because they are “beast”!

On the Field Sports Action Shots

I was lucky enough to be on the sideline to watch Christian play against Coachella Valley High School.  They lost that game, however, being on the sideline I got to see firsthand how tough Christian plays!! Even though they were trailing the whole game Christian kept his foot on the gas pedal!  He leaves it all on the field for every play!  It was a tough game and Christian was able to make some key plays that game. 

In Studio Sports Senior Portraits

This is what Christian and I were most excited about, time for fun sports portraits!  When we do our sports senior pictures I always tell athletes, I can make you look amazing but your athletic ability is what is going to sell the sports pictures.  Christian KILLED it!! He was grunting and pushing hard for every picture! He chose to use our black visor for some of his pictures.  Those senior pictures were some of my favorites.  We got a bunch of really dramatic sports pictures for his overall senior portrait session. 

Cap and Gown Graduation Pictures

Even though the session was in September we were able to use a white cap and gown that I have in my studio to take his graduation pictures.  We used some of our dramatic lighting to make Christians Cap and gown pictures really stand out!  Our pictures are NEVER boring,  we make your senior portraits stand out! 

La Quinta Senior Portrait Client feedback

Christian and his mom Tina loved his senior pictures! They recommended a friend and purchased some lovely prints for their home! That is why we are considered the best Senior photographer in La Quinta.

We had a lot of fun with Christian’s picture session.  We got to relax and listen to Da Baby while we were taking pictures and best of all, they loved their senior pictures! If you want to see more La Quinta senior portraits session please click here.
