Why Choose FJA Photography for Your Sweet 16?

With more than 15 years of photography experience, FJA Photography provides professional coverage while remaining attentive and unobtrusive throughout your daughter's celebration.
We understand that Sweet Sixteen events often include a combination of formal portraits, family photographs, introductions, traditions, entertainment and a busy reception. We work with the event timeline to help make the photography portion of the celebration organized and efficient.
Our goal is simple: to provide your family with beautiful photographs that allow you to relive the celebration long after the party is over.
Capturing the Important Details

A Sweet Sixteen is made up of hundreds of details that may be forgotten over time.
-
The dress your daughter carefully selected.
-
The decorations you spent months planning.
-
The cake created specifically for the celebration.
-
The flowers, centerpieces and reception room.
-
The excitement on your daughter's face before her entrance.
-
The smiles of family members and friends.
-
The people who traveled to celebrate with her.
These details are part of your daughter's story. We make an effort to photograph them along with the major events of the celebration so that your final collection of images provides a complete visual record of the day.
Sweet 16 Portraits and Family Photography
Formal portraits are an important part of Sweet 16 photography.
Depending on your schedule, we can photograph your daughter individually as well as with her parents, siblings, grandparents, family members and friends.
If your daughter has a Sweet 16 court, we can also photograph the court together and create a variety of group and individual poses.
We recommend scheduling formal portraits before the main portion of the party whenever possible. This allows us to create beautiful portraits while everyone is fresh and before the celebration becomes busy.
We can also continue capturing candid photographs once the party begins.
