Connie Riggio Seattle Tacoma Photographer » Seattle Tacoma Senior Family and Wedding Photographer

Jaden is a 2018 Stadium High School senior. She loves singing and musical theatre. It’s her passion and she performs in plays and musicals at local theaters and her school, plus yearly recitals and competitions, and she takes voice lessons once a week! She is also a big camper and loves camping through the summer with her family. What’s on her bucket list you ask?  She wants to visit the Nile river, go on at least one service trip out of the country, and meet Leonardo DiCaprio. She’s looking into schools with strong STEM programs, but that also have theater, so she can continue pursuing that passion.

I first met Carolyn when I did a family shoot for her family a few years ago and now it was time to celebrate her seniorness :). We decided to shoot at the beach on what was turning out to be a very stormy day. We went for it anyways and soon got chased off by rain and lightening, but caught the wave of beauty right before the storm hit! We rescheduled and our next time together ended up being windy, but ended in some gorgeous light right before sunset.

Olivia is a the daughter of a friend from high school and the second senior I have captured from her family. She reminded me so much of her mom and we had such a great time together.

Everyone approaches their photography in their own way.  For me, I love to show off a great asset and for Olivia, it was her hair.  I wanted to make sure that I never chopped it short, but instead highlighted it.

Adam and I met up in downtown Seattle along with his dad! We did the same thing (different part of Seattle) a couple of years ago for his brother. Both amazing musicians! Adam is all about the sax and wanted it to be the main focus of his shoot, so we used it for the majority of our time together! I love shooting in Seattle because it’s a different location than my normal Tacoma. I mean, I am there often, but not as much as the streets of Tacoma (which I still love btw!).

I also love the idea of finding unpopular areas to use as backdrops, like this image shows.  There was a lot of construction going on in the area, so we embraced it :).

Adam also wanted some classic Seattle shots, so we headed to the waterfront.

And soaked in that rare Seattle sun.

We welcomed the busy streets and no one really seemed to even notice us.

We did manage to get a few without the sax.

These sisters are very special to me! I have been documenting their lives for years now and look forward to seeing them each year. I love their momma too! This year’s a special one, Morgan is graduating Bellarmine and Madisen from Mississippi University.
