To celebrate {G}’s graduation from Claremont McKenna, she did grad photos at the Claremont Colleges (where she got her double major). It’s a beautiful campus and the perfect backdrop for a recent grad to get graduation portraits!

Grad Photos at the Claremont Colleges

We started with some cap and gown grad photos on the campus grounds.

We thought that this was a cool grad photo, with the modern glass and lens flares coming from the sun.

This is another cool shot with the water reflection (and the window reflection to boot!) really making the grad portrait.

Claremont Grad Photos and Family Photos

Dreams and Darlings does graduation and family photography in the Eastern LA County region. Claremont is the last city on the eastern edge of Los Angeles County, right before it turns into San Bernardino County. The Claremont Colleges are a collection of seven colleges all on one large campus, having arguably one of the most scenic and pretty campuses in Southern California. Doing grad photos at the Claremont Colleges is something that we are very familiar with, including the fact that a permit is required for any on-campus photography, including grad photos.

Doing family photography and graduation portraits is a pet passion of Judy, the owner of Dreams and Darlings. When not covering wedding events, Judy captures the lives and love of the many families she has touched. Some are previous brides and grooms, now starting their new families. Some are older families watching their young ones leave the nest to attend a university or college. Contact Judy to reserve a portrait photography session today!
