Seniors Seniors.....more Seniors

Megan


 Megan is a senior at Winlock High School and she has actually become a pretty good friend of our family. I was honored to work on Megan's ssenior photos late this summer.  Not only is she a good student, but she participated in Volleyball, basketball and track during her junior year.
Admittedly,  I have a relatively unique way of doing senior photos.  I don't believe that you can capture a person is in one shoot, and I have found high school students to have a short attention span for a photographer like me.  To keep creativity high and fatigue low, my pricing structure includes the possibility of up to three different shoots over a span of time.  It also gives the seniors a chance to change their hair and other looks to present a different part of them.  Some might call it customer service, but it is what I do.


Megan's first shoot took place at her house.  She had a beautiful new home with a porch looking toward the Cascade Mountains to the east.  After leaving the porch, she had a grove of trees in her back yard the loaned themselves to a lot of traditional possibilities. The viewer can see that it is Megan that makes these images.
 

 Megan has also requested her second shoot on a swinging tire from an old big leaf maple.  Well she wasn't that specific, but the photographer can see what she is thinking.  So far, no luck in finding such a scene.

Megan has requested that at least one of her shoots be in the autumn leaves so her final shoot may not occur until late-October.  If you are thinking about someone to do your senior portraits, take a look at the collection at GAP Photography.  Heed this warning, I will ask you what you want and expect an answer.  We work as a creative team!

Opening Doors with a Look

Latrell moved west first to Salt Lake City and then to Seattle where he has dabbled in construction and now as an executive chef.  Like many of us, he has a couple of side gigs that may help him make his next career move.  Bodybuilding may be combined with modeling to move into his next step.



Latrell, we wish you the best in whatever comes your way.  You are a class act.



This shoot took place in Seattle on the grounds of Seattle Community College.
