Had some fun at FOX21 News this morning talking about High School Seniors!

(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The school year is wrapping up, but if you have a child graduating in 2027, it’s already time to start thinking about senior photos. Mandy Penn, owner of Mandy Penn Photo…

I tried something a little different creatively with this shoot — and had SO much fun with it.

Playing with dramatic lighting, shadows, color, and mood reminded me why I fell in love with photography in the first place.

Sometimes stepping outside your normal style pushes you creatively in the best ways — and honestly, I think that’s such a good thing.

This image feels bold, cinematic, and emotional all at once. And I’m not gonna lie… I’m a little obsessed with how it came together. 🖤

Creative sessions like this are such a good reminder that art doesn’t always have to fit inside a box. And when it doesn’t? That’s usually when the magic happens.

There's something special about a photo that actually feels like you.
The kind that feels like you on your best day.

Here are 3 things that make a brand feel genuinely memorable:
01. Show Up Consistently
The brands people remember aren't always the biggest ones. They're the ones that show up — warmly, genuinely, and often. Consistency builds the kind of trust that quietly turns an audience into a community.

02. Let Your Images Tell Your Story
You have a story worth telling. Real portraits of the person behind the business create connection in a way that nothing else can. And connection is always what leads to the right clients finding you.

03. Let Your Visuals Speak First
Before someone reads your bio or visits your website — they feel something from your photos. When that feeling is warm, confident, and real — the right people lean in.

You've built something worth being proud of. And it deserves to be seen that way. 🤍
Comment BRAND below — I'd love to help you get there.

You’re allowed to grow in your own way.

It’s easy to feel like you should be further along or doing things differently. But honestly, everyone’s path looks different.

Some things take time. Some things take longer than you expected.

And that’s okay.

You’re still moving forward, even if it doesn’t feel like it every day.

If you’re ready to capture where you are right now, I’m here for it.

Some of my favorite photos aren’t the ones we plan.

They’re the ones that just happen in between poses…
when someone laughs a little too hard,
or when you forget the camera is even there.

That’s when everything feels real.

And honestly, those are the moments people end up loving the most.

Let’s create space for moments like that.

You blink and they're in a different grade. A different phase. A little more grown.

Families tell me all the time: they wish they hadn't waited for the "right moment." Because the right moment was right now.

Your kids don't need perfect.
They need you - present, in the frame, part of the memory.

Save this for when you're ready. And when you are, I'd love to capture your family exactly as you are today.

My kids were obsessed with Cluelazt year and so I had some fun recreating the characters with them. My daughter was Mrs White with the knife, Miss Scarlet with the rope and Mrs. Peacock with the candlestick. While my son was Professor Plum with the wrench, Colonel Mustard with the lead pipe and Mr Green with the revolver.

We had a blast and each look came together with the help of my amazing hair and makeup artist kimclayartistry! She is a genius.

Even cooler is that it won Silver at the International Photo Competition.

We have these images displayed in our staircase going down to their rooms and it is so much fun to be reminded of them every time we see them.

That’s what Fine Art & Legacy portraits are about. Not just a pretty image. A story. An atmosphere. Something that lives on your wall and tells the world exactly who your family is.

If you’ve ever thought “I want something different. Something that actually feels like us” — this is for you.

🎬 Watch the BTS and see how it all came together.
