A Two-Part Fall Senior Picture Dream: West 12 Ranch Studio & Golden Hour by the River

We kicked off her session midday at the beautiful West 12 Ranch Studio in Lodi, CA. This location always brings that rustic-meets-vintage magic with its barns, props, and country charm. Later, we moved to a nearby river spot just in time for golden hour. The river location is one of my faves—it offers so many dreamy backdrops: wide open meadows, dirt roads, a country-style fence, tall dry grasses, and vibrant fall foliage. It was autumn perfection and major senior picture inspo!

As a Lodi Senior Photographer, I love creating fall senior pictures that highlight the natural beauty of the season while showcasing each senior’s unique style.

Valeria's Style: Timeless, Trendy, and Totally Her

Valeria brought five amazing outfits that nailed the 3 Ts. Her wardrobe was the perfect mix of classic neutrals, fall textures, and playful accessories. Each look felt like her—from cozy knits to flirty skirts, she was glowing in every shot. This shoot is packed with senior picture inspo for fall wardrobe ideas and styling tips!

Confidence, Connection, and So Many Laughs

Valeria’s energy is so warm and fun—we laughed non-stop during her shoot! As a member of my senior model team, she’s been in front of my camera before, and it shows. She's grown into such a confident young woman, and I’m beyond proud of how far she’s come. Her sweet review says it all:

"MCseniorphoto has been the best thing I’ve ever decided to join. Michelle always makes me feel comfortable and confident when it comes to my pictures... I told her I wanted fall country vibes and she made it happen! She truly is amazing and... your number 1 choice for your senior photos."

Fall senior pictures should feel just like this—fun, empowering, and full of authentic moments. And as your Lodi Senior Photographer, my goal is to make every session unforgettable.

Senior Q&A with Valeria

We also asked Valeria a few questions about her session experience:

What were you most nervous about? When I first started planning my senior session with Michelle, I was worried about not feeling confident in my outfits. Being worried made me nervous.

What was your favorite part of the session? Seeing sneak peeks of my pictures during the photoshoot!

Describe your session in 3 words. Fall, warm, and sun.

What is one piece of advice you would give someone planning their session? Smile and trust the process.

How did you feel at the end of your session? I felt so happy and excited to see all my pictures knowing all my planning was worth it.
