UCF Graduation Photographer | Reflecting Pond Champagne Pop Photos

UCF graduation photos at the Reflecting Pond

UCF graduation photographer, Khim Higgins Photography has over a decade of experience photographing UCF grads in Orlando. One of her strongest suits is helping UCF grads plan their shoot in a way that feels organized, personal, and memorable.

One of the most requested and iconic ways to celebrate is a champagne pop session at the Reflecting Pond — a spot that instantly says “UCF grad” and recognizable spot on campus. Trends come and go, but champagne pop photos at the Reflecting Pond remain a favorite for a reason. They capture celebration and the excitement of what’s next — all in one frame. There’s no better way to end a UCF graduation photo shoot then to pop some bubbles while standing in the Reflecting Pond.

Experience Matters

Khim knows how to work efficiently at popular campus locations, guide you through posing without making it feel awkward, and time champagne pops so they photograph beautifully — not chaotically. From choosing the right bottle to positioning for the best light, experience makes a difference.

FAQ: UCF Graduation Photos

Best time for champagne pop photos at the UCF Reflecting Pond

 Early morning or golden hour sessions work best for lighting. However, a morning session will be quieter and most of the time you’ll have the entire pond to yourself without having to worry about other graduates in the background. Evening sessions are the most popular if you don’t mind sharing the pond with other graduates.

How much does a UCF graduation photo shoot cost?

Khim’s current UCF graduation packages start at $325. Champagne pop sessions are typically included as part of a full graduation package. Packages and pricing are available at Khimhigginsphotography.com.
