It’s a college graduation session at UC Davis! It was so much fun to capture this special time in this college grad’s life. Getting your bachelor’s degree is a huge milestone in anyone’s life. Plus, the campus provides beautiful locations for photos!

We started by going back to where it all began: the Welcome Center.

We had to stop for a little dance session on the sign! It was a lot of fun to capture the goofy side of this girl’s personality.

I hope that being able to capture pictures at all of these landmarks around the grounds brings those good memories back for years to come.

We had to get a few shots of her with the graduation cap! She makes it look good.

The natural, golden glow on the plants here is some of my favorite kind of light. We are so lucky to have the local California foliage around UC Davis!
