Why I love photography

Sleeping Beauty

I had the pleasure of doing a young ladies grad photo shoot and
 we spent about 2 1/2 hours in sweltering heat doing this shoot. 
 Thankfully the first few hours weren't done in her gown, she would
 have melted!  I'll share a few of my favorite shots...


As I mentioned to this young lady,
 she made my photos look good! She's 
 so photogenic and was a blast to work with! 


I've discovered this amazing park to shoot 
 photos at, it's not only free to park there, the
 scenery is stunning! 


Not the 'typical' grad photos, but then again I'm not the 
 'typical' photographer! ;-)


Time for a break! 


And this photo I call Sleeping Beauty. 


We never actually melted but talk about hot, the  
 temperatures I later learned hit 33c, way too hot to 
 be dressed in a formal gown... thankfully I'm the  
 photographer and she is young enough to tolerate the heat!

    1. Red this young lady missed her grad photos and I know her Grandmother, that's how I ended up doing this shoot. I also think there's way more people who do a way better job with the photos than the so called professional outfits which way overcharge. For example I had paid $80 for one 8x10 a day two 5x7s and a $32 sitting fee. I wasn't at all pleased with the quality so I sent them back for a refund and used photos from my actual convocation.
