Nathan's Seniors

Meet Nathan- mountain biker, procrastinator, and mechanic extraordinaire! (and a little procrastination never hurt anyone). Nathan's friends came to the shoot to ensure good smiles.
The sun was going down which made for really cool lighting. Also that lady- see- the one with the red shirt and white pants walking her dog really far away? She yelled at us. It was awesome. That's right- no two shoots ever the same, people!And now for the creme de la creme....
Are you ready??
I'll be honest, I love how this one turned out! You can't tell how high up he is but he is jumping off of a 3 foot wall that is also on a slope that goes down farther. I'm laying on the ground trying not to be squished.

Do you want to see it again?Me, too. :)

50 Years

My grandparents recently celebrated their 50th Anniversary with a family reunion in Durango. I did something really unusual and asked if I could do pictures because the last one that was done was in 1991!
I know what you're thinking- the 90s were good to me (bottom left).

I DID NOT TAKE THE ABOVE PICTURE!!

From just 2 people in 1959 to a posterity of 22 good lookin' (albeit goofy) descendants in 2009...

Shutterbooth (dot com!) (...you're supposed to sing that last part)

I had an interesting request from miss Marcy and her sister Linsy last week to do a shoot with their photobooth. It's a really, really nice booth that they take all over the city to rodeos and weddings and all sorts of events. They wanted a shoot in a (quote) "great location." That's right, people! Great location! That always makes me excited. :)
We found a couple of amazing blue walls behind a strip mall in an alleyway somewhere and knew it was The Place.
This shoot was so much fun! It was weird- the booth didn't cry, didn't run away, didn't whine.... it was very strange for me!
Marcy had the perfect outfits for herself and her children, and Lindsay had some really fabulous props from the Goodwill. Seriously, people, it was fun.
You can see their website here!

Tyler's Seniors

Seniors, seniors, seniors, seniors..... it's that time of year!

P.S. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you that I just don't think it's fair to have to photoshop acne out of pictures of myself but not a senior. :) Just sayin'....
