There’s something magical about Jamul, California. Tucked in the rolling hills east of San Diego, it’s where the sunsets stretch wide and the skies burn gold. It was the perfect setting for Jasmine’s senior session—just her, her horse, a cow print chair and the kind of wild freedom that only a girl who grew up riding can understand.



Jasmine showed up in true western style—faded denim, soft curls, a rust colored, satin tube top accompanied by teal accents, and boots that had clearly seen some miles. But the real star? Her horse, Jim, a gentle soul with deep eyes and a quiet loyalty that matched Jasmine’s calm confidence.
We spent the evening chasing the light through pastures and dirt trails. Jasmine rode bareback for a few shots (total natural), leaned into the cowprint chair for others, and in between, we captured those little in-between moments—the way she whispered to Jim, the quiet smiles, the soft laughter when he nuzzled her shoulder.


Senior portraits are about more than a cap and gown. They’re about who you are right now—your passions, your people, your story. For Jasmine, that story is full of grit, grace, and a whole lot of heart. Watching her ride into the golden hour was like watching someone step fully into who they are becoming—and I was just lucky enough to freeze it in time.

Here’s to big dreams, dusty trails, and seniors like Jasmine who ride boldly into their future.
