Cody - First early AM session of the season!

Cody is a senior at Plymouth South and she actually wanted to do a sunrise session! She had come along last year on her sister Amanda's early-morning session and decided she was up for the challenge too. Being August it wasn't too cold, but it was a bit windy. We managed to get onto the beach before the sun rose to take advantage of that 'sweet' light (though since it was slightly cloudy, we had to add a bit of flash):
Then the sun came up ...
And look at the beautiful sunlight on Cody - I can actually see the sunrise in her eyes when I zoom in!
Then we headed away from the beach - and the wind - to finish up her session.

Brendan's from Plymouth South too!

Here's another repeat customer - Brendan is Brad's brother who I also photographed last year. Brendan is a basketball player at South. I'm really excited to photograph a b-ball game or two at South this year!



I'm always honored to get calls from families of past seniors to photograph the brother or sister...or even cousins of a past senior. This seems to have been the week for it - it started with Kelsey and now Brendan and there's actually a couple more siblings that I'll be posting soon!

Kelsey from Plymouth South

Kelsey is a cheerleader at Plymouth South - and she loves science - especially biology. I also photographed her sister Shea last year. I see a bit of a resemblance...

Lan from Auburn

Lan was a lot of fun to photograph! She has a natural ability to 'pose' herself. And would you believe that she plays ice hockey!?! She says she's 'very competitive'. Don't mess with Lan! Here's her sneek peak....

Jess & Meri from Rockland

Jessica and Merielle came down from Rockland for their senior portraits. (Actually Jess came down - Merielle had been camping at Scusset for the week.) These two were a hoot! I was entertained just watching Jess getting her friend Meri to smile naturally. She used some um... unconvential methods. And that's all I have to say about that! Here's their sneak peek....
Jessica....
Merielle....

Tiny Dancer

Meet Jade from Plymouth. She graduated high school this past June and is heading off to college in a few days to study Arts Management and Dance. She hopes to own a dance school someday.
She also brought along her ballet shoes...

Crystal's Sneak Peek

Crystal and her friend Meghan came from Holbrook for senior portraits at the beach. The wind was a bit of a challenge. But we can always find non-windy spots...
And other times we let the wind have it's way....it's all good!
And one more to show off Crystal's amazing green eyes...

Brittney from Carver

I was invited back this year to this little piece of heaven in Plymouth where I photographed Justin & Micayla last year. This time Brittney, a senior at Carver High School, was in front of the camera. She's on Carver High's field hockey team. I was also pleasantly surprised to see Megan - who I had photographed 2 years ago - She happens to be Brittney's cousin and came along for the session.
Brittney had such beautiful green eyes!
We also spotted some camera-shy wild turkeys taking an evening stroll...

3rd time's the charm...

Here's Melissa - Student Council President at Carver High School. Her session was rescheduled twice because of the rain or threat of bad thunderstorms. Her session started off this week's beautiful weather. It was a perfect evening for pictures!

A Tale of Twins

Here's Nikki & Matt - twins from Plymouth South. I didn't see much at all that would indicate they were even related! Nikki just couldn't stop smiling!
Matt....not so much. Typical high school senior guy.
Well with some help from Nikki and her friend, and some shameless begging and pleading from me, we got some smiles from Matt.
I did manage to get Nikki to stop smiling for a few, too... for something a little different.

I managed to get them both in the same frame for a few, too.
