Dana H.'s Senior Portraits

Dana is a former student of mine, and when she was in my digital photography class last year, we learned that we both have vacation property in the 1000 Islands. Dana wanted to have her senior portraits taken up there, so we were able to coordinate a time that we were both up there for her session. We went to Keewaydin State Park on a blindingly sunny day; here are some of our favorites from the day:

We started on the sunny side of the park:









And with a vintage coloring effect:



The waves from the lake made this dock so unstable that we couldn't even stand. Undeterred, we both sat down for this great shot:















The sun was being a little aggressive, so we searched for some shade. This is my favorite shot of the day:



And with a vintage coloring effect:









We then moved to the slightly-less-sunny side of the park:



And with a color cast:











And with an artistic treatment:



We had a great time, and we were both so happy that Dana was able to get her senior portraits done in a place that was so meaningful to her.

Dana's Senior Portraits (part 2)

Over the summer we shot Dana's first senior portrait session. Dana took full advantage of her two-session package, and cut and dyed her hair right before her second shoot!

Along with picking her locations, Dana decided that she wanted lots of artistic filters added to her pictures. We started out with some more traditional headshots-at least as traditional as we get!





I added an artistic treatment to make the colors pop:







This photo was perfect for a select color treatment to emphasize Dana's eyes:









I added an artistic filter to this one too:



We then went to the park:











At the park we hopped into a tube in the jungle gym. It's some of my favorite photos of Dana!



And with the artistic treatment:





And with a select color treatment:





After the park, we went to a soccer field to get some portraits of Dana in her uniform:





I softened the photo by adding a vintage color treatment:







I added an artistic treatment to highlight the clouds in the sky:



I found a giant inflatable soccer ball, and it made the best accessory for these photos!



The soles of Dana's cleats matched her uniform, so I used a select color treatment-such fun!













We had a great day with great weather, and Dana got some great shots with her new dark hair!
