Jessica's Sweet 16

I was referred to Jessica’s mom by Jesus, a friend from High School.  I first met Jessica a few weeks before her actual party to do a small photo shoot with hopes to get her the perfect picture for her invitations.  We pretty much did the shoot behind her house and I was able to provide them with the perfect picture to use for her invitations.  I was booked for her party November 19th.  I initially arrived to her house at 2:45pm; Jessica had her beautiful light blue gown and getting her make up on.  She looked beautiful and I simply started snapping away.  Her Sweet 16 party were all dressed and waiting for the birthday girl to do some final touches.  One of her family members surprised her with a stretched out limo which took them to spot in Crystal City as I followed so we can get some pictures.  At least 6 other Sweet 16 or Quince parties were there waiting to take pictures but Jessica stood out with her beautiful light blue gown.  Unfortunately since it was November the water fountains there were drained but as we tried to make the best of it, we heard a train go by.  I figured there would be some train tracks near by where we can get a few shots since we really didn’t have much time to go anywhere else.  We walked around a small hill and there they were. 

 

After our little adventure and many pictures later, we headed to her reception where her guests were waiting for her grand entrance.  Every smile & tear of happiness was captured.  I had the pleasure of capturing Jessica’s every moment and I’m sure it was a day she will remember for the rest of her life.  Happy Birthday Jessica!
