Last weekend I travelled to Ohio to shoot a wedding and had lined up a senior session while I was there.

Nick brought along his mother and his aunt, who happen to be my sister in laws! We shot at Mill Creek Park and had a fun time walking the grounds of the Fellows Garden and talking and sharing.

Nick was easy to shoot. We had to work on that smile but, it was just a matter of time until Nick fell into his comfortable stance in front of the camera. It’s not the easiest thing to be the center of attention and having two photographers shooting you like your some famous football player! But, once we found the key word to make Nick “smile” we were on a roll!

Sometimes as a photographer you need to allow the person to be comfortable in front of the lens, this takes talent from the photographer and once you achieve that, then the natural body placement of an individual is easy to achieve!

Nick was so much fun and even climbed a few trees for us while my sisters-in-laws kept watch… just in case it was against the rules!

We also learned about praying mantis eggs, different 5 pointed leaves and gooseberries. I seriously LOVE when I learn new things!

Thanks Sue, Carol and Nick for allowing us to spend a short part of the day with you to capture Nick for his Senior year in High School!

See you soon:-)

Here’s some shots I pulled to share with all of you!
