Default Senior Photo Shoot

Hello everyone,
I had my first senior photo shoot with a paying customer last week. All things went well
and I was able to capture some nice images for my young client. Here are four such images, I hope you agree.

IMG_5902_5_7_S

IMG_5803_5_7_S

IMG_5895_5_7_S

IMG_5960_5_7_S

Well there you go. On the third image in the tree. She saw that tree and up she went.
She was a real crackerjack! I hope I'll always be that fortunate.

Thank you!

A bit, but I have a couple of for hire shoots under my belt. This was my first Senior shoot for pay. The toughest part for me is to continue to think ahead, stay fresh and be aware of the light at all times. Bottom line, we all had fun and I got paid. Always a plus!

If you hadn't created the right environment, I doubt that would have happened so easily. These are excellent picures and she is a crackerjack. Good job Tom

I love all the shots! Good job, and obviously a natural model. The pose in the first shot is very good, but would get rid of the porch post and chair just below her arms.

Thanks Leonaanhlee, my eldest boy asked if she was in college. I guess it's the eye of the beholder. Thanks again for the kind words.
