Senior Portraits
It’s that time of year again, senior portrait season, and Matthew came by the studio for his session a few days ago. Matt came by along with his parents and girlfriend and we had a great time creating some amazing images. Matthew does some pretty cool stuff including playing water polo for Davis high and being an Eagle scout. We started the session with some indoor images at the studio before heading out for some beautiful light with the outdoor portion of the session. We were pretty lucky and had another day of awesome clouds which I tried to take full use of. Matt’s session is filled with awesome images that would make outstanding wall portraits. Here’s a few sample images from the session.

Cessalee Vance – Enoch High School Class of 2014 – Senior Pictures
The lovely Cessalee will be graduating from Enoch High in Modesto next year (class of 2014) and came by last week for her senior pictures. Cessalee’s wonderful to work with, a lot of fun to hang around with and even photographs nicely too, the whole package.
We started the session in the studio before heading off for the outdoor images in one of my favorite foothill spots, I’m practically living out there right now. As you’ll be able to see by the pictures below we had some killer clouds and took full advantage of them during the session. The big sky isn’t something you see in many portraits but I love to utilize a dramatic sky whenever I have the opportunity. Really, how awesome would a few of those images look as large wall portraits? There’s a statement piece if I’ve ever seen one. Enough with the talking, here’s a few samples from the session.

Patrick Leiting – Modesto High Class of 2014 – Senior Portraits
Patrick came by the studio for his senior portraits last week, he’ll be graduating from Modesto High in the Spring of 2014. We had a great time during the session and enjoyed hanging out with his parents and sister as well. Patrick is a great guy, a pleasure to work with and was great in front of the camera, very natural. In addition to being an all around cool guy Patrick also races BMX bikes in competitions all around the country, pretty cool I think. Of course when spending most of your time racing you’ve got to work your bike and some of the awards you’ve won into the sessions. Patrick has a pretty sweet bike and I’m hoping we can head out sometime so I can make some images of him doing a few tricks or maybe jumping over fire. I’ve got my fingers crossed.
Here’s a few of the images from Patrick’s Senior Portrait session.

Mr. and Mrs. {Almost} Session – Engagement Portraits with Christian and Christine
Meet Christian and Christine, one of my newer couples who will be getting married just after the new year. Both go to school out-of-state so this summer is a busy one as Christine is finishing up as much wedding planning as possible before she has to leave again for school. Christian is in the middle of a summer internship in Texas and headed to California for the July 4th holiday, a short family vacation and as it turns out their engagement portraits too. The engagement session is usually my first opportunity to work with my couples but in this instance it was also my first chance to meet Christian as well.
We headed out to one of my favorite “local” spots in the greater Modesto area as the location seemed to fit their wedding theme and Christine’s vision perfectly. Both Christine and Christian were wonderful to work with and fun to hang out with during their engagement portraits. They have a very natural and comfortable way about about them in front of the camera, always a big plus. We had some great light and made good use of it. The images from the session turned out wonderfully and I’m looking forward to their wedding in January.
Here’s a few more of Christian and Christine’s engagement portraits.

Mommy {To Be} Maternity Portrait Session with Whitney
Whitney will be welcoming a beautiful baby girl into the world very soon so we headed out for a few maternity portraits, or Mommy {To Be} images as I like to call them. Whitney makes a beautiful model which makes my job of making her look her best an easy one and allows me to focus more of my attention on creative stuff, like open fields and balloons. Her baby shower will be featuring a pink color theme so I wanted to work that into the images in some way as the pictures are going to be used during the party. We started the session with a few studio images, a bit of a warm up, before heading to the field of oats just outside my studio for a few images with some balloons. We finished the session at one of my favorite local spots.
