So it wouldn't be fall without orange...

In the deserts of Southern California there are no fall colors.  We have to wait til spring to see the orange poppies cover the hillsides. So to create a fall senior portrait we use fall colors in clothing and props.

My new favorite spot is a lake dug in the 1800's for water usage wit native drought resistance trees and plants.  Very natural and the light is amazing...just 5 minutes from my house and with so much variety for backgrounds in a small area.

Alicia is wearing a vintage orange overdyed 70's blazer for fall color.  This girl is my senior rep for this year and is an amazing girl.  She is the primary caretaker for her father who has advanced parkinsons...her mother visits on occasion.  She considers it a privilege to take care of the man who has been her sole provider. She handles bills, taxes, running the house and his health care. Alicia is beautiful inside and out!
