Rachel's Senior Pictures


Last summer I travled to Michigan for a photography seminar in Detroit. While I was there I took some Senior Pictures for kids I grew up babysitting... it makes you feel old :) Here are Rachel's Senior Pictures. We had a great time traveling all over Lowell finding some unique backgrounds for some really fun portraits. Hope you enjoy!

Photo Hike







With the sun shinning and the warm weather I went on my first “photo hike” of the spring this afternoon. Ever since college I have loved to go on what I call photo hikes. It started with my dad’s old Pentex ME Super (a fully manual camera). I would head out and walk until I shot a roll of 36 off and then I would turn around and head home. I would do this in college well.. for class but also to clear my head. It turned out to be good exercise for my body and my photographic eye. This afternoon was no exception. At first I headed out to Richmond to find that it was still winter there. With snow knee deep all I found were signs of winter to photograph. A little discouraged I headed back to town. On my way into town I made a pit stop at Wylie. I found a few signs of spring… Migratory geese, and this cute pair of love birds. My faith in spring was renewed. Hopefully we will all be out in no time enjoying spring!
