This past weekend I had the exciting opportunity to do a Senior Session! Aaron and his family attend the same church we do, and I was absolutely thrilled when his parents agreed to let us (my Hubby and I) do a session with him.
I just love, love, love shooting adults! They actually do what you want them to do, AND they hold still!! Hee hee! We met up with Aaron and his mom on their family farm, and for a little while before sunset Aaron and I trekked through the cow patties looking for some ideal locations to shoot. We used an old house, an open field, a creek and the grass lined trail next to the corn field, but decided against hopping the electric fence, and didn’t get back to the deer feeder/ “water tower” (*wink, wink* {a little inside joke}) before the sun got too low. The farm was a perfect location for any session, and I was so thankful they allowed us to use it.
Now I know that sometimes guys don’t like to have their picture taken, but I think Aaron was a natural. It only took a few minutes to get him to relax in front of the camera and by then he was a total pro!
Of course, it totally helps that he is a cutie! 😉
He is headed off to college next fall to study finance – this boy knows exactly what he wants to do with his life. I find that so admirable!
Maybe some day I’ll figure out what I want to be when I grow up!
Hmm, after looking at these pictures, I think I figured it out. Photographer suits me just fine. 😉
How do you like the texture on this next one? I thought I would try it out.
I am so excited I got to use one of my favorite actions here. I just love the edgy feel of it.
This was an amazing session for me because it was sooo much fun! My hubby also captured some images which I will share with you as soon as he’s done with them. Aaron is an avid motorcycle rider and he followed in his father’s footsteps by having himself photographed jumping his motorcycle while wearing a cap and gown!! It was crazy – and way to much for me to try to photograph. Since my hubby is a pro at photographing things with wheels, he took over the jump shots.
Hopefully I can post those soon!
Thanks for looking!
