Patriotic Collage | Utah Senior Photographer
August 15, 2010Striking. Pensive. Sharp shooter. Stunning green eyes. Soldier. Guarded. Adventurous. Patriotic.
{Just a few things that come to mind after meeting the lovely Miss T. and photographing her post-high school session before she leaves for basic training.}
This session was fabulous fun! T. and her Mother trusted me as I led them through the countryside to find the perfect setting for our session. The early evening light was warm and golden. T. was game for some fun shots and could flash a sultry glance at the drop of a hat. Some of my favorite shots are out in the tall grass- the setting was just perfect to go along with her expression and T’s adorable mother helped us out with a little off-camera flash and reflector assistance. We wrapped up the session at the studio for a nice portrait of T. in her National Guard uniform. I felt truly honored to capture this special portrait, as she is following in her father’s footsteps in serving our country.
Once all of the photos were polished up and ready for presentation, T. and her mother came to the studio again to see the collection for the first time. This 24″x36″ custom collage design was a collaborative effort based on some things that T. loves, mixed with favorite images from our session. We included the lyrics to the song, “God Bless America” as well as a couple of hidden initials within the texture images. This is the perfect example of how we love to create something truly unique and custom for our clients. It is on schedule to arrive Monday and I can hardly wait to present it to them!

We have paired it with this 20″x30″ canvas portrait & 8×10 print to be displayed next to her father’s portrait in uniform.

And just a few pictures that you can see more closely . . . isn’t she stunning?

and I can’t leave this one out!
