Bailey & Chase’s Vanderbilt Graduation Photoshoot

A fun couples graduation photoshoot together!

Why celebrate a major milestone alone when you can bring your favorite person along? I spent the afternoon with Bailey and Chase for their Vanderbilt University graduation photos, and it was such a blast. While the focus was definitely on their individual achievements, having them both there turned a standard shoot into a fun, relaxed experience that captured their relationship perfectly.

As a Nashville college graduation photographer, I’m seeing more and more seniors choose to do their sessions with their significant others. It’s fun activity to do before graduation together to get some fun photos!

Cheer Spirit & Classic Vandy Style

Bailey, a member of the Vanderbilt cheer team, brought all the energy to the session. We made sure to get those iconic shots that highlighted her time on the sidelines, as well as classic, sophisticated Nashville senior portraits that feel timeless. Chase brought a great, polished look to the shoot, and together, they looked like they walked straight out of a campus magazine.

From Individual Portraits to Cute Couples Shots

The best part of a duo session is the variety. We spent time focusing on each of them individually to ensure they both had a full gallery of senior pictures for their families and graduation announcements. But the real magic happened when I got them together.

We captured some seriously cute couples photos around the historic architecture and hidden gardens on campus. Whether they were laughing or just walking through the quad, these images added such a sweet, personal layer to their Vanderbilt senior portraits. It wasn’t just a "grad shoot"—it was a celebration of their time together at Vandy. After, we hit the riverfront for some iconic Nashville senior portrait vibes.

Why You Should Bring Your Boyfriend to Your Senior Session

If you’re on the fence about bringing your boyfriend or a close friend to your senior session in Nashville, here is your sign to do it!

• Natural Smiles: It’s way easier to laugh naturally when your person is standing right behind the camera (or in the frame with you).

• Two-for-One: You get your professional graduation portraits done and get high-quality couples photos at the same time.

• The Vibe: It turns the shoot into a fun memory rather than just another thing on your graduation to-do list.
