Beach Senior Photos with Liv at Wingaersheek Beach
Senior photo sessions are always such a blast, but when you add in the magical setting of Wingaersheek Beach in Gloucester, Massachusetts, it becomes truly unforgettable. Liv’s beach senior photos were just that: unforgettable. She’s a high school senior at Northeast Metro Technical High School, and her session was a perfect mix of her vibrant personality, her love for the outdoors, and a little bit of fun spontaneity.
A Perfect Day for Senior Photos
When Liv showed up to her session, I knew right away we were going to have a great time. The weather was perfect, with that classic New England summer glow – warm sunlight filtered through soft clouds, creating a dreamy, airy vibe. Wingaersheek Beach is known for its pristine sands, sparkling water, and the iconic rocks that make for such great photo opportunities. Liv brought the energy, and the beach provided the magic.
Before we even started shooting, Liv dropped a bombshell: she had just cut her hair earlier that day. Talk about bold! Her mom, a hairdresser (lucky Liv!), worked her magic, and it looked amazing. She totally rocked it.
Liv’s Personality Shines Through
Liv’s active lifestyle also played a big part in our session. She’s obsessed with working out, and it shows in her confident posture and radiant energy. Plus, she’s a hockey player – how cool is that? I love when seniors share their passions because it’s such an important part of who they are at this stage of their lives. You can tell Liv’s drive and determination will take her far, whether she’s on the ice or in the gym.
A Gloucester Senior Photographer’s Dream
Wingaersheek Beach was the perfect location for Liv’s session. The soft sand, gentle waves, and warm light gave her photos that signature bright and airy look I love. We explored different spots, from the water’s edge to the rocky outcrops, and Liv looked stunning in every single shot. She wore a flowy white sundress that popped beautifully against the natural beach tones. It’s one of those timeless looks that will never go out of style.
Her relaxed, laid-back vibe fit perfectly with the setting. Liv’s natural beauty shone through in every photo, and I kept thinking to myself how much she reminded me of Mischa Barton’s character, Marissa Cooper, from “The OC.” When I told her, she laughed and admitted she’d never seen the show. I told her it’s a must-watch – it’s practically a rite of passage!
Cousin Cate’s Connection
It’s always special when I get to photograph more than one person from the same family, so I was thrilled when Liv mentioned that her cousin Cate had her senior photos done with me too. It’s fun to see the similarities and differences between family members. Cate’s session was equally memorable, but Liv definitely brought her own unique flair to the day. There’s something so rewarding about building those connections with families and creating memories they’ll treasure forever.
Future Goals and Big Dreams
During our session, Liv shared some of her plans for after high school. She’s considering becoming an electrician, which I think is such a cool and empowering career choice. It’s clear she’s a go-getter with a strong work ethic, and I have no doubt she’ll excel in whatever she sets her mind to. Her confidence and determination are truly inspiring.
Capturing the Magic
By the end of the session, I had so many favorite shots that it was hard to narrow them down. Liv’s session at Wingaersheek Beach is easily one of my favorite senior portrait experiences of 2024. She brought so much energy, beauty, and personality to the day, and the photos truly reflect that.
Why Beach Senior Photos Are the Best
There’s something so timeless and magical about beach senior photos. The natural beauty of the ocean, the soft sand, and the golden light create a backdrop that’s hard to beat. Gloucester senior photographers like me are so lucky to have places like Wingaersheek Beach. It’s the perfect setting to showcase a senior’s personality and create images that feel warm, natural, and uniquely them.
Liv’s session is a testament to why I love what I do. Every senior is different, and capturing their individuality in such a stunning location is an absolute joy. If you’re a senior (or a parent of one) looking for warm, natural photography that highlights your personality, Wingaersheek Beach might just be the perfect spot for your session.
Final Thoughts
To all the seniors out there: your senior year is such a special time. It’s a chance to reflect on everything you’ve accomplished and look ahead to all the possibilities that lie ahead. Whether you’re into music, sports, or anything in between, your senior photos should reflect who you are and what you love. And if you’re considering beach senior photos, I promise you won’t regret it.
Liv, thank you for letting me capture this moment in your life. You absolutely nailed it, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll do in the future. Here’s to your next adventure!
