Senior Portraits
When I was 18, there was 1 photographer for a 40 mile radius. His name was Ladd Arnoti, and he had the biggest house in town, and with good reason. Every year, he would line up hundreds of Seniors, all of them in the same blue suits or cotton candy dress with a boa, and he would collect a check and take, well…mug shots.
It didn’t help that I looked like a dork with a wig. Seriously, I had so much hair, it looked like I was wearing a hairy motorcycle helmet.
Senior Portraits have come a long way. Today, a good photographer tries to capture a slice of the subjects personality – to capture the young person the way they really were during a very transitional time in their life.
I still take the kinds of portraits that Grandma would hang on the wall, but I also try and go a little crazy – and have some fun in the process. Call me, lets talk about it!
