Senior Session

Took a walk down memory lane the other day when I shot some senior portraits at my old high school. I hadn't been to Murrieta Valley since I graduated in 2001. It was like having an out of body experience. Or more like a scene from the "Twilight Zone"...things looked the same but everything was different. It was cool to see how the campus has changed and how it was still the same all the same time. And then after all that....it made me old.












This shot ROCKS! I love how the scoreboard is in the background with Tyler in his jersey doin' his thing. After editing all these, it made me wish I had listened to my parents and taken senior portraits. But hey, at least now I get to take them just behind the lens!




So, I was messin around with Tyler and telling him that if the whole football thing doesn't work out he could always call up Abercrombie. He was such a natural in front of camera and a trooper! All of those weeds that he is sitting in had these stickers (fox tails) that were poking him and making it uncomfortable. Even I had them all in my socks and every where on my jeans. But Tyler totally pushed through and humored me with all of my "ideas" for these shots.






I have to admit that I had some help on this shot from Tyler's mom and his girlfriend. I don't know what they did behind me that made him laugh like this but I am sure glad they did.



Thanks guys for having me shoot your portraits! And a big congrats to the senior class of 2010!
