Just a sneak peek. Loved this shot of "all the boys!"

Got to meet another cool teen for senior portraits this weekend. I'd heard Cody was a bit reluctant, well, maybe uninterested is a better word, about having photos done. But from the moment he got there, he was easy-going, quite funny and I thought he looked pretty relaxed. I could tell his mom and grandma are super proud of him, and they should be -- he had a great way of making everyone laugh and feel at ease and that is such a great, and valuable personality trait. Even though he might not have been super excited to have the portraits made, I could tell he knew they were meaningful for his family and he handled all those eyes on him like a champ. Congrats, Cody, on your upcoming graduation and best of luck!
I was shooting his big sister's senior portraits. He had a new haircut he did NOT like (too short!) We all tried to cajole him into a just a couple photos, but nope, no way, lady, no how. I resorted to snapping a few when he wasn't paying attention and when he'd see me he would laugh and try to run and cover. Going to give this one to his mom because I think it's the only one I got when, for a split second, he let me in.
