High School Senior Portrait Photography | Raleigh | Emily
A few weeks ago I had my first high school senior portrait session for the 2010 graduating class. Emily admitted that she didn’t particularity like having her photo taken, but by the end of the portrait session, she was a natural! Also, it was wonderful to get to know a senior from my old high school. It was great to hear about my old stomping grounds and know that seniors like Emily are giving it a great name! If you are interested in getting your senior portraits done, please contact me.
Las Vegas and some Portrait Photography | Amy
Since my friend was doing so well playing poker out in Las Vegas, he invited me to come visit him. It was a lot of fun pretending I was important as he would get us past lines and into places that I could never get to by myself! Also, I was approached by a few people wanting me to take some portraits of them. So not only did I get to catch up with my best friend from high school, but actually did some work as well. It was a great trip all around.
Amy is one of the girls that wanted me to take portraits of her. Amy is actually in law school and will be a lawyer soon enough, so when I asked her why she wanted me to take some portraits of her, she told me that she just likes my work, especially some shots I did with her friend, so she wanted some as well! Of course I was super pumped after hearing that and knew that our session together would be great… and it was! Thanks Amy! Here are a few of the shots:
Kimmie and Cherry Blossoms
Another beautiful day in Washington DC with another beautiful model for me to shoot. On my last day in DC I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Kimmie. After walking for what seemed like forever, we finally found a place that was not overrun by locals and tourists (like me) trying to catch a glimpse and enjoy the beautiful cherry blossoms that bloom once a year. I didn’t have as much time with Kimmie as I did with my other shoots, but it went really well and we had a blast! Like with Yen and Tom and Kelly, many thanks to Adam Peele, who graciously provided one of his awesome Limited Edition Handscreened Art T’s for this shoot (the green one).
Kelly (and Andrew) and Cherry Blossoms
Another shoot I had the pleasure of doing in Washington DC was with Kelly. Shooting with Kelly was a blast as she was up for just about anything, including climbing a cherry blossom tree…in boots with high heels! I doubt I could have climbed the tree we picked with climbing gear (am I the only one who never learned how to climb trees?), let alone in what she was wearing! At the very end of our shoot together, Andrew also joined us for about 20 minutes or so. I wish I had more time with them together, but it was great shooting with Kelly alone and as a couple once Andrew stopped by. Like with Yen and Tom, I have to give a quick shout out and many thanks to Adam Peele, who was gracious enough to provide some of his awesome Limited Edition Handscreened Art T’s for this and a few other shoots (the brown top with the cherry blossoms).
