ARIEL – EHS

Meet my first senior portrait session for the class of 2009. Ariel’s senior portraits were a joy to shoot and I am excited to share just a few of my edits on my blog. When I graduated in 2003, Ariel was just a girl in sixth grade. What a beautiful, photogenic woman she has become. I don’t think that she took a bad picture. Thanks to Ariel and her mother for letting me take a small part in helping to preserve the memories of her senior year.

This shot looked gorgeous in color and black and white. I chose the black and white for the more serious shot because I thought it added a nice dramatic effect.

A talented singer and actress, Ariel looks at home in front of a camera.

I love the spontaneity of this shot. It may not be your typical senior portrait but I this moment when she is caught off-guard.

I provided Ariel with many variations of this shot. Personally, I prefer this plan version. I think there is a great deal of beauty in its simplicity. Doesn’t she look like she belongs on the cover of a CD?

This is a collage using the previous shot. This collage combines Ariel’s singing and acting together by showing some of her lead characters from Everett High School musicals.

These stage pictures where taken at Old Bedford Village. Thank you to everyone who helped make these pictures possible.

I could not have custom ordered these flowers better for this picture. Thank you to Patty and Arlen for the use of there beautiful landscaping and letting my seniors roll around in their flower beds!

I like the sun flare in this picture. I did use Photoshop to increase the effect.

I purposefully made this a high-key image. This was made to be viewed in black and white.

Thank you for taking a look at some of my edits from the Ariel’s senior portrait session. To view all of her images and order some prints for yourself, check back for the updated link
