Many of our senior portrait clients opt for doing a couple of looks.The approach that I use is that they should be different, not just the same thing with different clothing.
Kayla, thanks for helping me achieve this!

When I was younger, I thought that if I just had a dozen poses, and an couple of backgrounds, I could be a really good photographer.
Tyler's senior portraits reminds me that Monday, July 23 at 7:00, Drum Corps International will present its 6th annual show at the D. Bruce Selby Stadium. Ticket information can be obtained at 554-2352. This is "The Big Blue Marching Band's" largest fund raiser of the year. If you have never been, trust me, you will love the 6 Corps from across the USA.
Caleb plays some of his music out at Davinci's Coffee House, so naturally we thought it would tell a great story about his senior year (as well as a portrait on the Kremlin Football Field, and a studio closeup). The shirt he is wearing here is a t-shirt that was from his fathers college blue grass band, an homage to the past.
When I first opened my studio in 1975, many people asked me the same question, "do you have props?". And of course since I was just starting, my answer was "no". Back then I suspected that every one had their own props, and through the years, I have been proven correct (although most people do not have props on their props).
My two favorite things about senior portraits, 1) every senior is different, so every portrait is different, and 2), it is always interesting to see what backgrounds or locations turn up that are just perfect for that portrait. I always kid my clients, "if you don't believe in God, just hang around me for two weeks, no one is that lucky".
