🌾 Golden Hour Dreams: Senior Rep Boho Photoshoot in Fair Haven’s West Side

Senior year is a moment — your moment. And what better way to kick it off than with wind-swept hair,

barefoot vibes, and the golden glow of sunset on the West Side of Fair Haven, NY?

4 Senior Reps with Boho Vibes

Summer 2026- we had the absolute dream team of Senior Reps gather for a boho-inspired shoot that felt like something straight out of a Free People catalog meets a Nicholas Sparks movie (in the best way possible). The energy was electric, the laughter was contagious, and the fashion? Totally Pinterest-worthy.

Why Fair Haven’s West Side?This hidden gem along Lake Ontario is a slice of upstate New York heaven. Think: wildflower fields, rustic docks, driftwood-strewn beaches, and trails that look like they belong in a fairytale. The West Side gave us the perfect natural backdrop — sunlit water, amber grasses, and that rich, warm light only Fair Haven sunsets can deliver. Also we got wind blown out of our first location but sometimes I am GLAD for a photoshoot change. This proved to be an amazing spot!

The Boho Vibe:Our Senior Reps showed up and showed out — flowing maxi skirts, crochet tops, wide-brimmed hats, layers of beaded jewelry, and barefoot confidence. The whole aesthetic was effortlessly wild and free, just like this chapter of life should be.

We captured spontaneous birds in the water, golden-hour hair flips by the lake, and soft, quiet moments in the sunset. There were vintage baskets, flower crowns, and even some flower throwing!

Behind the Scenes:Between takes, there was a LOT of laughing — think tangled flower crowns, impromptu twirls, and lot of water, everywhere. The West Side breeze was on our side, giving every frame that perfect “model off-duty” wind-blown look. And can we talk about the light?! Chef’s kiss.
