Ellie decided to show off her street style in her senior portraits. The NYC trip found us “revel”ing all over the city. (Revel is the all-Tesla ubers in NYC – get $10 off your first ride with code “DALEB5221” and know you’re going to travel in a nice car for the same-ish price as an uber). We knew we wanted to do some street style senior portraits with Ellie wearing all black. I envisioned her running across an intersection or hailing a cab. However, when I saw this flower wall on the upper east side, we had to shoot that as well. I love the soft muted colors of the florals in the background. They still pop against Ellie’s black outfit, but don’t overtake it with vibrance.

I always feel so inspired shooting new places (which is why the “have you shot at ______ before” isn’t a relevant question for me). I love scoping out pretty light and dreamy backdrops no matter my location. I’ve done it all over the world for more than a decade, and feel honored that I got to do that for Ellie’s senior pictures. While she did most of the planning, I brought my A game to the photo shoot.

There is a special sneak peek below of more of Ellie’s street style senior portraits in NYC. I love her outfit and all black vibe. Grab the YSL leather handback here. And her Saint Laurent sunglasses were from Saks off 5th.
