Senior Session for Dalton

Im learning that writing is not exactly a strength of mine. Attempting to do so daily or regularly in my case, is showing me a lot but this post doesn’t need many words. I went to school with April, Dalton’s mom and have been blessed to not only watch him grow up but capture lots of photos of him in that time. These are my favorite of them all. He is a fantastic young man, respectful, photogenic, and also a 2 time ( currently aiming for #3 ) State Champion in football. He has the rings to prove it, but all the gold did not go to his head. I truly hope my boys can leave such an impact on those around them. I t think they are pretty great myself :)

Dalton is mid way thru his last year of high school. He is coming into himself and knows exactly who he is. He is always fun to be around and to work with but he also listens extremely well and trusts that I have his best interest in mind and hes right about that. His girlfriend Morgan always joins us and vice versa as I have been honored to work with her multiple times in the past as well. This session was even sweeter when Luke, Daltons little brother joined the fun.

All of the images are shot with my Canon EOS R3. Review coming pretty soon on that but lets get to the goods.

This last shot though..

Alexis Class of 2020

What a year this has been, and currently continues to be. It is a terrible shame that this years Seniors are not having the experience they deserve, the experience they have earned. I know no one could expect the rollercoaster that this calendar year would turn out to be and that the Class of 2020 would be the Class of a Quarantine as well. Most small businesses have suffered and some have all but had to shut down completely but I am happy to say that joy is still very much alive. That creativity will live on. When Alexis’ mom messaged me months ago discussing her senior portraits, well we clearly had a different plan but I am extremely pleased to say that I don’t think this session could have turned out any better. I have looked at these often and posted a few sneak peaks but I am happy to say her gallery is alive and its straight fire! A few samples now…

With all the disappointment that I can only imagine some seniors are feeling with the turn of events, I hope beyond those disappointments, they are able to see the cup half full so to speak. I hope they see all they accomplished and they see this down time as an opportunity to get a jump on their next adventure. I am sure some will give me crap for shooting during this time but you know what, Alexis deserved this and there was no way I was going to let her miss this milestone. There was zero chance we weren’t going to document this and man we did it well :) Thats all for now but I have another session coming soon..

Congratulations Alexis!!!
