Okay, can we talk about how STUNNING Eastan’s city chic senior session in downtown Richmond turned out?! 😍 She graduated this spring and we celebrated with the most dreamy shoot right in the heart of downtown Richmond — and let me tell you, this girl brought the MODEL ENERGY!! Eastan is on my Senior Rep Team and she really just knows how to give it her all, and she did not do anything less for her own personal session!

We kicked things off at the Capitol building, which is known for those iconic white columns and the massive grand staircase. If you want a DC look, but don’t want to drive 2.5 hours for it, THIS is the place! I love though that Eastan totally flipped the script and did a more sassy and chic outfit that popped against the classic white backdrop. The contrast was everything and gave the whole location such a fun and unexpected vibe. We were obsessed!

For her second look, we headed over to the Low Line, one of my favorite hidden gems downtown. This spot has such a cool mix of old railroad charm and whimsical nature vibes with all the greenery, flowers, and little pathways tucked away. It added such a dreamy, almost magical feel to the shoot, and Eastan looked like she stepped right out of a fairytale.

And then — outfit number three — we switched it up for a more classic city girl vibe! We found the perfect spot right in the city where we could play with the fun reflections and city textures. It felt modern and sleek in the best way and felt so different and unique to the classic Maymont vibes. Funny enough, we actually got kicked out of the original location we had planned (lol oops) — but honestly?? It was the happiest accident because the spot we landed in had gorgeous lighting and gave us the perfect golden hour glow. Sometimes the unplanned moments end up being the best ones!!

Eastan, you absolutely crushed it and brought every look to life! This session was such a fun way to show off all the beauty and personality that downtown Richmond has to offer — just like YOU! 💛 I’m just obsessed with your city chic senior session in downtown Richmond!!
