I can now say I go back a ways with Jackie :-) I had the honor of photographing and getting a video of Trevor (Jackie's Fiancé) proposing to her. Then a few weeks after the proposal, I got to do engagement photographs of the happy couple! (Please see the bottom of this post for links to all those photos and video) So anyway, needless to say, I was thrilled when Jackie contacted me to do her college graduation photos! Jackie is graduating from Gonzaga University this spring with a degree in nursing! Go Zags and way to go Jackie!

Sitting on the steps of the campus church, Jackie sure looks beautiful!

Of course... the classic black and white with the graduation cap and gown! In all honesty, I'm pretty sure Jackie rocks the graduation attire!

Being that nursing school is a lot of work and requires a lot of dedication I figured it only necessary to do a fun and happy graduation photo!
