Elli

I got a call the other day hoping I would be able to fit in a last minute senior shoot. Side note, to clarify, a "senior shoot" does not mean skeet shooting with elderly gentlemen, nor does it mean putting the elderly gentleman out of his misery. It means photographing a high school senior and may or may not involve skeet shooting. Back to the story. Thankfully I had a slot open for Sunday morning and Elli and I ran with it. She showed up being herself which is what I appreciate most. You can bring five changes of clothes, but if you forget yourself, or are not familiar with who you are after 12 years of school, you may as well just try again. Anyways, Elli is awesome. She was cool, willing to be creative, and gracious. And hung out for over an hour in the cold so that we could make some pictures.

Thank you SO MUCH Elli. I hope you love them and I wish you the best next year, especially hoping you get to attend that one college up north, you know the one.

Hailee

The weather was beautiful down at Willamette Park and Hailee was so great to work with. She's smart, thoughtful, loves philosophy and reading, and it doesn't hurt that she is also stunning. She's gonna pretty much rock her future's face off. Hailee, all the best to you in getting into the school and program you want. Also, you'll be happy to know that Arcade Fire was the soundtrack to processing these photos, so if you don't like it, I'm blaming them. :-)

Stephanie

I loved this senior portrait shoot. Stephanie is a tremendous softball player hoping to continue playing in college (currently choosing her prospects). But also, she's laid back, gorgeous and fun. We went over to Peninsula Park in the eerie fog and then down Killingsworth. Thanks Stephanie!!! Best of luck this year!
