I know sometimes people get a little anxious to see their pictures... And I try really hard to get them done quickly.... Unless you happen to be a family member... Then maybe not so much.... My son graduated in 2012. And today - TODAY - I just finished his Senior Pictures. I would calculate the months and days it has taken me to finish them, but I would only be adding another 5 minutes to that total and I still have to finish his sister's Senior Pictures.
This is not normal. For most High School Seniors. But totally normal for my kid.
Oh my! Those shoes! I can't believe I let him wear those! And I really can't believe they are still on his feet and didn't just fall off in the picture!
And again, not normal... But for my kid... (sigh) NORMAL.
When he was little and I taking a photography class, I needed a model. I figured it was a slam dunk, I didn't have to find a model, I had a 5 year old. But he didn't want to do it and kept expecting me to give him more and more money for every new project. It was quite annoying and totally not worth the strife and the money I had dish out! The majority of his childhood he had a hand in front of his face if there was a camera nearby. So, when it was time to do his Senior Pictures, I said I would hire someone else - anyone he wanted. But he said it was fine if I did it. So we did. (All the images above.) And then one night, he wanted to go out again. And again. I was over the moon! And it made up for all the strife from his uncaptured childhood!
