Jazmin, Angela, and Kelyn CSULA Best Friends Group Graduation Portraits | Pasadena City Hall

When my graduate clients ask me for recommendations on where to take photos outside of their campus, I always suggest Pasadena City Hall. Not only is it a beautiful location for portraits, but its timeless architecture serves as a fantastic backdrop for various client sessions. I have photographed numerous client sessions here, exploring all the great spots within city hall.

We started off the portrait session at the iconic hallway with the arches, capturing stunning shots. Then, we move to the spiral staircase for individual and group photos, taking advantage of the many different compositions it offers. Next, we head to the top of the staircase, which provides a great view of the city, where we take a few more portraits. To finish off the graduate portrait session, Jazmin, Angela, and Kelyn celebrated with champagne and toast using mini bottle shot glasses, creating a fun and memorable photo opportunity.

Congratulations to Jazmin, Angela, and Kelyn for their incredible achievements! Take a look at the wonderful results from our shoot below.
