Graduation day is more than just a milestone — it’s a celebration of years of hard work, personal growth, and big dreams coming to life. Amelia’s graduation photos at Elon University captured that joy so beautifully, and I’m thrilled to share some of our favorite moments from her session on campus. 🎓
A Campus Full of Picture-Perfect Backdrops
The campus of Elon University is full of really great spots that are perfect for Elon graduation photos, and we made the most of them:
- Fonville Fountain (aka Alamance Fountain) — A signature Elon backdrop that adds elegance and movement to any portrait.
- Chandler Fountain in front of the Koury Business Center — With its flowing water and timeless design, this spot adds a sense of pride and accomplishment to any graduation photo.
- Founders Hall and Innovation Hall — Near the SmartFlower, a striking, modern solar energy structure/sculpture that felt like a nod to Amelia’s STEM background. Although it doesn’t feature prominently in her photos, see if you can spot it!
- The Columns at Colonnades — Classic, clean lines and soft natural light made these photos feel timeless.
Elon Grad Photos With A Personal Touch: Amelia’s Story
Amelia is graduating with a major in Astrophysics and minors in Computer Science and Mathematics — talk about impressive! Her long white dress looked incredible with Elon’s maroon cap and gown, giving her photos a crisp, clean look that really popped against all of that iconic Elon brick. And many of her photos feature her sorority stoll! I love this kind of personalization in grad photos!
She’s not just celebrating this moment solo either. A few of her friends joined her for her session, which added so much fun and connection to her gallery. (Want to make your grad session even more memorable? Bring a friend along and share the spotlight! It’s one my of my favorite graduation session tips…)
Next up for Amelia? Graduate school! I have no doubt she’ll shine just as brightly in her next chapter.
Why Graduation Photos Matter
Taking time to celebrate your accomplishments with photos isn’t just about documenting the day — it’s about honoring your hard work and the people who supported you along the way. These meaningful graduation photos become part of your story, a way to look back and remember just how far you’ve come.
Whether you’re planning your own shoot or searching for an Elon graduation photographer, finding someone who knows the campus and can help you feel confident in front of the camera makes all the difference. I’m a graduation photographer based in the Triad and regularly photograph grads from Elon University, High Point University, Wake Forest, UNCG, UNC, Duke, and NC A&T.
