Hillary :: Berkeley Prep Senior Class of 2016


Meet Hillary who will be graduating from Berkeley Preparatory School in 2016…

IN HER OWN WORDS:
“For years, I have envisioned my senior photos and upon seeing Theresa Marie’s work instantly knew that I wanted her as my senior photographer! Before discovering Theresa Marie, I worried that my senior photos would appear stuffy or look unnatural. However, as soon as I saw Theresa Marie’s work, my worries disappeared! I chose Theresa Marie because her photos seemed to capture personality and happiness. I also loved Theresa Marie’s use of beautiful outdoor settings and how she makes each picture unique!

The experience was even better than I could have imagined and it exceeded all of my expectations! Theresa Marie’s enthusiasm was infectious and made me even more excited for my shoot. She is the sweetest person ever and made me feel super special!

While I loved the reveal of the images, my favorite part of the experience was the shoot, especially on location at the beach. While I am usually hesitant to have my picture taken, Theresa Marie made me feel comfortable in front of the camera and the entire shoot was so much fun! The day was an absolute blast and was a great way to start my senior year! It’s a day I’ll never forget!

When I first saw my images I was in awe! My images were everything I imagined and more! I couldn’t stop smiling! Theresa Marie is so talented and really captured my personality in each picture–I will cherish them forever!

I have already told all of my friends about Theresa Marie and they loved the pictures that I showed them! I have told them that working with Theresa Marie was the best decision I could have made for senior pictures and that the entire experience was extremely fun and positive! I am so thankful to have had such a wonderful experience!”
