Here are some images for a few recent High School Senior Session

 

Class of 2011 Kelly

Kelly wanted an indoor and outdoor session so after a few studio style shots,

We moved outside to the greenery of the backyard

where we used the flowers, trees and stone wall to enhance her images.

Class of 2011's Meaghan

Meaghan's session started with an indoor session

We then moved on to the Endicott Estate and the grounds for an outdoor session

High School Senior

This weekend I photographed Class of 2011's Simone. Simone plans major in elementary education when she goes off to college.
Here are a few favorites from her weekend photo session.

Weekend sessions - Beach Family Session - HS Senior - Quinceneara

Here's Katie and her crew on Saturday afternoon at Black Rock Beach in Cohasett.

Here's Class of 2011's Elizabeth who plans to follow in her mom's footsteps and

go into a career in nursing when she finishes high school.

A few indoor poses

and because Elizabeth is a dancer, she indulged her mom and I with a few shots in her tutu
Sunday evening was a Sweet 15 celebration for this lovely lady.

We started out at the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain for some formal shots of the birthday girl and her attendants

I've noticed that traditions at these Quinceneara's differ with each culture and even within a culture. During this event the traditional changing of the shoes by the father signifies the young girl passing into young adulthood.

After her mom proceeded with the traditional crowning she presented her daughter with a promise ring. I had never seen this done before.

The birthday girl with her mom, dad, and siblings.

Quinceneara & High School Senior Session

Saturday's Quinceneara began with a stop at the Nursing Home to see Melissa's Abuelo, who would not me able to attend the festivities.

After a few group frames it was on to Lombardo's in Randolph.

We took a few photos on the grand staircase

and in front of the famous chandelier

We were then moved into a private room for photos with family and the attendants.

Here is Melissa with her Abuela.

Dad, Melissa & Mom

Sister Katie and her 3 month old daughter joined in.

It was a wonderful party!

Sunday morning I picked Alex up for her outdoor High School Senior photo shoot. After a few initial photos in front of a flowering bush in front of her house, we headed over to Larz Anderson Park

We started our session at the stone wall outside of the Transportation Museum.

and moved to the hill and on to Acorn Rock as Alex has named it because of all of the acorns on and around the rock.

Here's one of the few candid shots I took. Many times I like these ones the best, though in Alex's case I love so many of them. From the hill we moved down to the gazebo

Where she changed into her lovely purple floral dress.

Then it was on to the bench with the flowering bush behind it.

and then to the small bridgeand finally the decorative iron gate.

We then headed around the corner to the bottom of the big hill where the trees and stone seating can be found.

A touch of glamour was given to this one just for fun.

A hint of drama

Among the trees

then back to the stone before heading out.We got dozens of really nice images of this lovely lady. You can see the entire shoot at: http://portraitsbyangela.zenfolio.com/p232796999
