I was so happy to recently reconnect – in person as opposed to just Facebook! – with Jess and Scott and to finally meet their two adorable children. Back when Jess and Scott were engaged, I went up to shoot their engagement session in Cleveland, so it was fun to make that trek again and see their new stomping grounds. And, even though it was too rainy to go outside, when you have a loving family and big rooms to dance and sing in, you have all the sunshine you need.
Doing something different is always high on my list, so when it was discussed that Amanda and I would shoot around the A&R Music Bar where she’d be attending an Icon for Hire concert, I was all in. Especially when we’d be getting into the venue after the band’s sound check and before doors and essentially not only have the run of the place but get a photo with Ariel.
We started with pictures down under an old train trestle and made our way around the alleys and railroad tracks until we ended up back at the venue. One reason I love photographing high school seniors is that they’re usually up for about anything. So, if you’re a teen (or a parent of a teen) who is looking for something out of the ordinary, something that really captures the essence of who you are, please look me up.
