Ali {Senior Story} – Redding, CA Senior Portrait Photographer

Betsy Erickson — Wed, 07 Jan 2015 16:21:32 +0000

I was ecstatic to capture Ali’s Senior Story. I met her a couple of years earlier at the Stirring, a church located here in Redding, CA. Ali’s full of love and life, she’s so friendly and confident. When I captured her story I really got an opportunity to spend some time with her and really discover what a truly amazing person she is! She inspires me so much, as a talented photographer, a passionate lover of Jesus, and with her amazing attitude. Ali, you shine so bright everywhere you go, the way you sincerely love people, and go out of your way to connect with them is exactly what this world needs. Don’t ever stop following your heart and the heart of Jesus, you’re a world changer.

Betsy Erickson — Tue, 26 Jun 2012 09:39:00 +0000

Hello fabulous Essence Photography followers! So excited to steal a moment from this busy holiday season and share a recent Senior Story session. Thank you so much to all my clients that have been blessing me like crazy this year. I’ve been overwhelmed with love and support and I can honestly say my heart is full of love for each one of you!

Tonight’s session was a drop dead gorgeous senior. And I felt so honored to photograph these images for her. She has such a beautiful personality, she’s down to earth, kind, and full of joy.

We had quite an adventure exploring some of the most beautiful locations Redding, CA has to offer. I’m so blessed to live in such a beautiful city. I can drive literally 5 minutes in any direction and find an Epic setting for any story I’m capturing.

The ending to this beautiful session caught the sunset light just perfectly. THANK YOU Senior *K* for allowing me the opportunity to photograph such an exciting chapter in your life story! Your an amazing young lady, with an incredible future ahead of you. Whatever chapter in life your writing, enjoy every moment!
