I’ve had the privilege of making tens of thousands of senior portraits, but I looked back in the archives today to see what my first senior portraits looked like.  (Caveat: these aren’t literally the first senior portraits that I made.  This may actually represent the second session.  The first one was with a wonderful guy named Andrew, and took place on the beach in Quincy Bay south of Boston.  But this is the first session I had the privilege of photographing after moving to California.) My subject’s name is Julian, and he’s a drummer.  I don’t recall ever actually hearing him play, which is something I regret.  But I remember the April sunshine and a mild spring day, and Julian’s willingness to work patiently with me to make senior portraits.  Thanks to Julian (and his mom, Angie) for giving me the chance to work with you!
