18th Birthday Portraits by Christina Kramer Portrait - CTKPHOTOS

This is Deanna! Deanna just graduated high school and for her 18th birthday she booked a portrait experience as a gift to herself. She had a great vision for her photos and sent over some inspiration images. We collaborated to create a custom session designed just for her and her vision. Deanna was drawn to red roses, sexy chic and great posing.

If you look inside the image gallery you can see some of the style she was drawn to and how it shows in our final images of Deanna. I love to customize each portrait session to the client. Starting with inspiration and moving any direction at any point after that.

I really connected with Deanna because she works really hard and appreciates hard work. I am a self proclaimed workaholic and I think my family agrees. I have been this way since I was Deanna's age. Something she has that I am in high admiration of is that she also appreciates herself and doesn't mind spending money to have something she really wants.

This 18 year old said she saw my work on Instagram and knew she wanted to work with me no matter what. I love that about her and wish I did that when I was younger. At any age, if you love yourself, that's the time to be photographed because it will be evident in your photographs. I will see it and I will capture it. I promise.

Take a look at her inspo photos and our final photos. I'm in LOVE with the outcome.
