Meet Clarissa; she's a college graduate. Clarissa is such a natural beauty, and she was clearly so photogenic.  Her beauty was only topped by her sweet disposition and kind manner.  We had such a great time photographing her graduate portrait session on campus, at Stetson University in Deland, FL.  The buildings and the grounds of Stetson University are one of Deland Florida's most ambient locations.  We are always excited to photograph here.

As a Finance Major and a Business Systems & Analytics Minor, Clarissa spent a lot of time studying in Palm Court.  So, naturally she wanted most of her photographs done right in that very court.  The majestic palms, brick clad buildings, and soothing fountain make for some beautiful backdrops.  We waited until the light was perfect, and started shooting.  You'll find some of our favorites below.

Clarissa, you were a complete joy to work with!  We loved meeting some of your family too... (safely, from afar).  They were just as sweet as you are.  Thank you for choosing us to document this special time in your life.  We wish you all the best in life.  Our hope is that our paths cross again in the future.
