Santa Monica Beach Senior Session with Dance & Drama

Felicia’s Senior Session – Pier Pressure Never Looked So Good

Santa Monica. Sunset light. A senior who dances like the ocean’s her stage.


Santa Monica Pier High School Senior Portrait Session

Felicia—our fabulous Fefe—made this session unforgettable. From the vibrant chaos of the pier rides to the quiet drama of a gorgeous deck overlooking the Pacific Ocean, every stop added emotion and energy to her portraits. We played with the iconic Santa Monica sign, chased golden light on staircases, and embraced color and movement at every turn.

Each location gave us something special, but under the pier’s weathered beams, came the grand finale - the dance shots. Felicia leapt, twirled, and floated through shadow and sun in a way that made time pause. It was magic. The light poured in through slats above, catching every leap, turn, and powerful expression. With her hair flying, shadows stretching long, and the ocean just behind—it was the definition of cinematic.
