Golden Hour & Lake Michigan Views: Lexi’s Senior Pictures at Grant Park’s Seven Bridges

Senior portraits are all about showcasing personality, and Lexi’s session was the perfect reflection of what she loves most. With her deep love for the beach and watching sunsets, it only made sense to bring her senior pictures to the shores of Lake Michigan at Grant Park’s Seven Bridges in South Milwaukee. As the sun dipped lower, golden hour lit up the scene with warm, dreamy hues, creating the perfect setting for her session.

Grant Park’s Seven Bridges Trail is one of the best spots in the Milwaukee area for senior pictures, offering a mix of woodsy charm and stunning waterfront views. The winding trails take you through lush forested areas before opening up to breathtaking views of Lake Michigan. With autumn settling in, the fall colors were just beginning to appear, adding some extra warmth and depth to the landscape. By the time we reached the beach, the golden hour glow had transformed the sky into a soft blend of pastels, reflecting off the water in the most magical way.

Lexi’s session was as dynamic as she is! She’s a beach lover, soccer player, and fellow Target-shopping enthusiast, with big plans for the future. She’s deciding between pursuing criminal justice or diving into the trades as a mechanic; no matter which path she chooses, she’s headed for amazing things!
