For Jadon’s second session, he knew he wanted to celebrate his milestone in the heart of the city he loves. We started by taking some timeless graduation portraits at the Gateway Arch National Park, in downtown St. Louis, utilizing the modern lines and greenery of the downtown landscape.

Afterward, we headed over to Ballpark Village to lean into his love for the St. Louis Cardinals. We couldn't resist the opportunity to take some photos in his cap and gown with Busch Stadium standing tall in the background, it’s the ultimate backdrop for any STL sports fan. To finish off the evening, we were graced by a stunning sunset peeking through the city skyline, which provided the perfect golden light for a few urban street portraits. Scroll down to check out the highlights from Jadon’s downtown graduation session!
