2011 Highlights – Seniors

The majority of the work I do is Senior Photography, and that’s by choice. They’re probably my favorite. Here are a couple of my favorite shoots from the year….

So it’s been a really, really long time since I’ve posted. That doesn’t mean I’ve been idle. In fact, it means that I’ve been too busy to update. Here’s from my most recent shoot. I’ll be following up with some highlights of 2011.

Kristen Class of 2010

By doing senior photography, you don’t get a lot of repeat clients, but you do get siblings. This is the case for Kristen. I had photographed her sister Maddie a couple of years ago and Kristen was keen on having me do hers as well. Both girls were extremely photogenic and possessed an uncommon comfort level in front of the camera. I had so much fun with Kristen, and the results were spectacular!

Rebekah – Class of 2010

After years of assisting me with photo shoots, it was time to shoot my sister Rebekah’s photos. Lucky for me, Rebekah loves to be in front of the camera, and for good reason – she looks good there. Like most of my shoots I do a few head shots for Mom and several fun artistic shots for the senior and everything in between.

A Glimpse at Summer

A busy summer has prevented me from addressing this blog. To me, doing actual work is more important than displaying it, but nevertheless, as a Marketing professional, I know it’s importance.

Here’s some images I pulled from three of my favorite shoots this summer.

This photo shoot took advantage of my iStock photography discount. This means that you can purchases these images online here. Please be mindful that while these images are royalty free, they are not restriction free, so read the fine print.

I tried a few new locations for this shoot, as many photographers have begun to discover my other locations. These are little more edgy than my typical Senior Shots, but still in line with current trends.

That session can be contrasted with these images which are more experimental. I would not include images like the following in a session, unless explicitly asked.

Finally, here was a fun child photo shoot. I love it when parents ask me to take photos of their children that allow to bring out their personalities. Here’s the result:

Author Headshots

While I specialize in senior portraits, occasionally I’m approached to do other projects. A few months ago I was asked to take some head shots for a fantasy author, Sam Cheever.

Being that I’m young and have a slightly edgy style, I usually find myself photographing young people. I was a little nervous about the session because I was going to be shooting outside my comfort zone, and also because my assistant was out of town that week. But, it the end I was pleased with the results.

A Favorite Photo Session

I love senior photography. And, now in honor of senior photography season starting up again, I thought I would post some photos from one of my favorite sessions last year.

This is Maddie. Maddie is an artist herself and loves being both behind and in front of a camera. Maddie chose to go with Sarah Musselman Photography because she didn’t want the “typical” senior pictures. She knew that I would be able to stretch the bounds and yet still take that “mantle piece” photo her mother wanted.

So we stretched the bounds. I broke the rules – all of them. She and I tossed around ideas. And, here is the result:
