Riley | Team17 Seniors | Arizona Portrait Photographer

Riley is a graduate from Sunnyslope High School, and perhaps one of my only spokemodels who hates coffee! Ha! She may not like coffee, but she sure is talented and lovely. She wanted to be on my senior team, adding “I want to be a member of Team17 because I want a chance to show other girls that it doesn’t matter what others think of you, all that matters is what you think of you. As long as you are happy with yourself, no one can change your goals in life, or your passions, or who you want yourself to be. I want to be able to show people that true beauty shines through your insides when you are truly happy with yourself.” I wish we could all frame that above our beds to read every single morning…so wise!

This beautiful brunette is an impressive softball player, earning her a spot on the varsity team as a sophomore, and playing at state. She also made the second team (all district) for her skills in badminton, and says, “I learned to push myself further than ever, and I’ve learned more about being confident and becoming a leader.” Riley is also part of the school’s newspaper staff, and on the Link Crew. She credits her faith, her family, and her friends with being her source of strength and positivity. After graduation, she hopes to attend school to study interior design, and eventually, become a mom. Her dreams also include hoping to travel to Greece someday soon. I know you’ll love getting to see more of this sweet girl in the days to come, right here on the blog.
