As I prepare to photograph my first Class of 2027 senior next week, I realized I still have amazing Class of 2026 seniors to share, including Brede!
Brede’s senior session was spread across two separate sessions and perfectly captured the activities, accomplishments, and interests that have shaped his years at Southland High School. One of my favorite things about senior photography is creating images that tell a senior’s story, and Brede’s session did exactly that.
We began in the studio, where we highlighted two important parts of his high school experience, volleyball and One Act Play. Brede brought along his volleyball gear and One Act Play trophies, creating portraits that showcased both his athletic and theatrical accomplishments.
For the outdoor portion of his senior session, we visited Good Earth Village and the track at Grand Meadow High School. These locations provided a variety of backdrops and helped capture another important part of Brede’s high school journey as a student-athlete.
Later in the year, we met again for a winter cap and gown session at Southland High School. We also incorporated several of his Spring Musical shirts and photographed him in the Southland auditorium, a meaningful location that represented the many hours, performances, friendships, and memories he experienced through theater.
From volleyball and track to One Act Play, spring musicals, and graduation, Brede’s senior photos celebrated the activities that made his high school years uniquely his own. His session was a great reminder that senior portraits are about more than just taking pictures; they’re about preserving memories and telling the story of this important season of life.
Congratulations, Brede! Wishing you all the best as you begin your next adventure.
