Molly's Senior Photos

    Molly is a very spirited & fun person.  Her mother contacted me to do her Senior photos and we decided to meet in downtown Eugene.  

 

After walking around, we found an alley where a painter was working on his mural.  I loved the colors and the whole concept, so I asked if we could use it as a backdrop for her photos and he was more then happy to accommodate us.  And this is what we got.

It was a lot of fun working with Molly.  She ended up in a tree, by a fountain, in a window sill, and drawing a cat on a wall with chalk.  Thank you for such a fun evening.

Shannon's Senior Photos

 

   For those who may not know, Shannon is my beautiful niece.  I convinced her to let me do her senior photo, or she convinced me I don't remember who did the begging.  But here is the outcome of the sessions

 

 

We started at my house doing some photos after work.  After taking some photos in the front and back yard Shannon suggested going to the field behind my house.  Did I tell you she was not just beautiful but smart.  And that is where we got my favorite photo.

A couple days later we went to Portland a did some photos in the Test Rose Garden, Waterfront, and Downtown.  If you have never been to downtown Portland, let me tell you one thing parking is a problem.  We found parking on the street and I used my Blue Car app to pin point the car.  After walking around and taking more photos it was getting dark and I had a guy friend meet us (two girls and camera equipment aren't a good combo in downtown).  We took the MAX around, got some dinner, and decided to head home.  WELL, first of all don't EVER use the Blue Car app to help you find your car.  Long story short it took us an hour or so to find the car.  We passed very close to it several times, but as I always say "All's well that ends well".  Now we can look back at it and laugh.  Right?

 After getting a good nights sleep, we went to a local park for just on more shoot.  Nothing exciting or eventful happened here except that Shannon was messing with me and wouldn't stop singing the song "We are never ever getting back together" by Taylor Swift.  Talk about your most annoying/catchy ever, ever, ever.  All in all I had a lot of fun with my niece (I hope she did too).?
