Spring 2026 UC Berkeley Grad Photos

 

Congrats, Class of 2026!

For all the hard work YOU put into studying for those final exams, writing those essays, and grinding through each project. Getting through college is hard, y’all.

But you’re almost there! And for all your hard work, now is the time to celebrate! One thing I’m passionate about is seeing people who’ve worked hard get recognized for their achievements, so it’s my personal joy to help you celebrate through capturing some special moments for you, your friends, and your loved ones!

I’ve taken grad photos for 140+ grads since 2021 & it’s been such an honor. Whether you’re looking for a photographer to shoot for you, your friends, or more– I’m ready to help you out. You only graduate from college once, so let’s make it count.
