College is often described as a transformative period in one’s life, and for Paige Murphy, her time at Bryant University was exactly that and more. As Paige prepared to graduate, she chose to commemorate this incredible milestone with a senior photo session on the campus that had been her home for the past few years.
This spring, just before graduation, we captured Paige in the most iconic spots on Bryant’s campus. The session began with her walking through the lush pathways and buildings that had shaped her academic journey, and portraits by the famous arch which she got to walk days after—a tradition steeped in superstition that only graduates may pass through—a symbolic moment that marked her transition to alumna. The joy and pride on her face were unforgettable.
The photo session continued at Bryant’s iconic entrance sign, featuring the globe that represents the university’s global perspective. Here, Paige celebrated with a playful and joyous champagne pop, a moment that perfectly encapsulated the excitement of her accomplishment. The sunlight glinting off the champagne spray made for some magical shots that truly reflected her vibrant personality and achievements.
These photos were more than just images—they told the story of her journey. Each shot captured her pride in earning a Bachelor’s degree in Digital Marketing, the friendships she built, and the memories she will cherish forever. They also highlighted her hard work, which included an internship at Dell Technologies that paved the way for her full-time position at the company by the time she graduated.
Paige shared her gratitude for her time at Bryant: “Bryant University, for me, was a place that allowed me to grow individually, both professionally and personally. I could not thank the university more for the education, meaningful friendships, and lasting memories. As I reflect on my time in college, the sense of accomplishment derived from receiving a bachelor’s degree in Digital Marketing, as well as my full-time position earned at Dell Technologies, is priceless.”
As a photographer, it’s a privilege to help clients like Paige celebrate these once-in-a-lifetime moments. Senior photo sessions are about more than just pictures; they are about capturing a story of hard work, growth, and achievement. Paige’s session at Bryant University stands as a reminder of how important it is to honor these milestones and create lasting memories through photography.
Whether it’s walking through a symbolic arch, celebrating with champagne, or simply reflecting on the journey, these moments deserve to be preserved. Paige’s experience shows how powerful photography can be in telling a story of success and celebrating the end of one chapter while looking ahead to the next.
