CATEGORY grad

A combo senior portrait and mission farewell photo session, this kid has personality hiding in places most of us wish we could find. A true individual and independent spirit, easy going, nice, and talented, which will carry him far in upcoming transitions to missionary service in Salt Lake City and college life beyond.


I love photographing grads! Young enough to look great without Photoshop, a wacky sense of self, style, and attitude mixed with shyness, yet old enough to follow instructions! And usually there’s only one of them. Find great sunset light and a great sharp lens, and it’s hard to go wrong.

Megan had a last-minute grad session, due to an injury to her face that prevented an earlier shoot. Her announcement photo (the blue t-shirt one above: I love how it shows her shy yet quirky independent attitude) was taken and uploaded to the processor the same night for next-day delivery, and those cards went out the next day! Just in time for commencement. And the best part was how fun and easy she and her mom were to work with. Great attitudes, fun, patient, excited, and mom even held my reflector. Well, maybe not needed as my giant pregnant belly clad in a white shirt was as big as my reflector and may have been almost as good!
