We managed to squeeze in this session during the week.  It was a gorgeous Tuesday evening with some great natural light.  We met up at the Lakota West football field and then headed over to the Square.  Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

Made use of the empty stadium.

Great eyes.

It was nice to incorporate the high school in the background.

Showing his confidence.

Loved the car and was excited to include it at the end of the session.

White shirt against shiny black car, great combo.

For this high school senior session we met up at Spring Grove Cemetery.  Which may not sound like a great pictures but it is an amazing place.  Beautifully maintained with a lot of great natural backgrounds.  I love that we started out with a pretty formal outfit and ended up in casual.  Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

All dressed up.

Even without the coat he still had a business air about him.

The sweater was perfect for the colorful backgrounds.

We were under a tree for this image.

The peacefulness of the water is perfect.

Showing his Chicago pride.

This high school senior session was all new locations for me with regards to a senior session.  We started out at the Mason soccer field and then headed over to a close park.  We moved the session time up because of a threat of rain which worked out in our favor.  Not only was there an unexpected practice about ready to start at the field but we had great filtered light.  I scouted out the park before heading to the school to meet up with the senior and his mom.  Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

After a few quick images on the field we made use of the entrance wall on the way out.

Getting that natural smile to appear.

We had some great fall color backgrounds.

Turns out he is a Red Sox fan.

Love he brought a hat to wear.

Finishing up with those great colors in the background.

I had the pleasure of photographing this high school senior’s sister a few years ago.  It was nice meeting him for the first time back in October.  We decided to start the session indoors before heading out to a few locations.  He seemed so relaxed in front of the camera and we had a great session.  Here are a few of my favorites:

Starting in the studio.

Such great filtered light during the session.

Had to get a serious image in there.

Love this bench.

I love this location because of all the different possible backgrounds.

I’m a sucker for including vehicles in images and he was all for it.

We managed to squeeze in this football player’s high school senior session during the season.  The weather cooperated and we were able to do the session on a Saturday evening.  A few images at the football field before heading out into the wilderness.  Okay, really a park but it was pretty isolated feeling once you moved past the front section.  Even though it was small it gave plenty of unique backgrounds to be used.  Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

What a great smile.

Loved this one best in black & white.

I loved this shirt on him.

See, a great smile.

A picnic table that was under a shelter.

Incorporating a little baseball at the end.
