Welcome To Senior Year

Becoming a senior is a momentous milestone for everyone. It’s an accomplishment that you’ve worked long and hard on. It’s a time to reflect and pat yourself a pat on the back for the hurdles and victories you have overcome. Adulthood is finally near. You’ve been dreaming of where life will take you after this year is finished. The options are overwhelming of what you have planned: College, the workforce, military, traveling… who knows.

Enjoy Every Second Of It

We all know senioritis is real. It’s a tunnel with a light at the end of the tunnel, or a race with the trophy at the end. My advice? Enjoy every second of it. Remember these days before the real world settles in. If you want to keep being successful, put your all into it. Finish your year with a strong ending. Study with friends, take good breaks, and reward yourself. 

The Garden State

Recently, J&J Studios headed over to New Jersey for a styled senior shoot. Being one of my favorite places to travel, there are endless sights to see. As your New Jersey senior photographer, I promise you there are remarkable locations to shoot. From the beaches to the pine barrens, the historical museums, and national/state parks, you just can’t go wrong. 

Meet Brynn Hurley – a competitive senior who loves digital arts and science. Her favorite hobby of all-time is cheerleading and was also nominated as the queen of her town. We are so proud of her for the accomplishments she has made! Brynn’s most influential people in her life are her parents. She is motivated to set foot in every continent as possible in life, and really hopes to be a part of a few mission trips, too. Fun fact: She has collected every single card given to her since kindergarten! How cool is that? In the next ten years, she hopes to be work part-time as a graphic designer and social media handler for a major fashion company. On her days off, she wants to be home with her family.

Cooper River Park

She rocked out her shoot at New Jersey’s Cooper River Park in Pennsauken Township, NJ. This is a great place to relax and unwind in general. What better way to enjoy a beautiful day than to walk around a river? It’s a no-brainer. This recreational park offers picnic tables, gardens, bike paths, playgrounds, and more. Into fishing? Bring the rod and reel to your session. Maybe you are a free-spirit and want something outgoing like Brynn’s senior session. We can do that, too. Cooper River Park provides fields and cross country courses and tennis courts. Hey – perfect for your sporty-seniors out there. 

She had a few different outfit selections for her shot. Her denim jumpsuit sported a casual, friendly appearance, also making for comfortable posing! We decided to take the session to the next level and amp up our game. Brynn wore a long, flowy skirt – which was perfect for these water shots. Opposite of light and airy, we made sure to take some moody, powerful images. Be edgy, be natural, be fresh – just be you. Make your senior session one you (and others!) won’t ever forget. Your senior portrait session in New Jersey can be unique and breathtaking with our help.
