I had the privilege this spring of mentoring a Princeton High School senior, Sam, for her senior project. She wanted to learn about lighting, so she brought her cousin to model for us, and I brought some instruction on light. Coincidentally lighting is one of my favorite aspects of photography, so it worked out really well for both of us. I had so much fun teaching and experimenting and learning a lot from the practice too.
I photographed pretty little Hannah at her house several weeks ago. She was born a couple weeks early, so she was still really small when I worked with her. She fussed a lot of the time, but it worked out that I got plenty of cute photos of her looking happy.
Jennifer and Brian brought their boys in to the studio a couple weeks ago for photos with the bunnies. They also decided to get some family photos while Brian was in town, before he is deployed. Sometimes I get bored with shooting in the studio, but I had a lot of fun with this session--probably because it was casual, and they were open to whatever ideas I had. We got a lot of great shots, but here a just a few of my favorites.
You get to see another sneak peek today--this one is of Courtney and Jake. These two came to the studio yesterday evening before their prom all dressed up. We did a few traditional photos in the studio then headed outside for some fun stuff. Here is one of the faves.
Here is a sneak peek from Faith's portrait session from last weekend. She needed a portrait to go with a project she's working on. You can read about her journey of getting laid off from her job and starting her own work on her blog. She's a writer so her blog posts are interesting reads--like a complete contrast to mine, where I'm just trying to get some facts straight before I get to the photos. But I'm a photographer, so that works for me.
