Default school girl costume

Shot for my old community college's student run magazine. The school's name is Las Positas College and students over the years have nick named it "Lost Potential" or "UCBC" for University California Behind Costco because it's located about a quarter mile from a Costco. A LARGE percentage of students start at LPC and don't end up graduating or transferring or doing anything productive with their time/lives, hence the "Los Potential."

The shoot is for the cover of the magazine, and the lead story is debunking the myth of "Lost Potential." If you look at larger versions on flickr you'll see that she's wearing a ghetto-rigged school patching using the school's logo with a modified title, "Lost Potential."

Thanks. I took about 300 photos over 2 days, so I'll slowly put up the good ones as I edit them.
