Per usual, I was so excited that Maason's parents asked me to do his senior pictures! They are our neighbors and I know that there are no givens in photography, there are so many photographers and family friends that are out there! So I was over the moon when we started talking! And being his neighbor, I know a few things about Maason - he plays baseball, works really hard, plays more baseball, helps out whenever we need to bring heavy things into the house, plays baseball (again) and always says hi to us whenever we see him. When I photographed him, I got to know a few more things about him - he is incredibly patient, the 20 minute rain shower proved that; he is super present and in the moment and if you are talking to him he is really listening! It was awesome!
I love this image, he has the best smile!
After the rain, we got this amazing double rainbow! It was so awesome!
So this rock is in the MIDDLE of the river! I said to Maason, "go sit on that rock over there," it was on the shore. Maason said "you mean that one in middle of the river?" And I thought about it for a quick second and said "YES!" So he hiked his pants above his knee and waded out and then threw himself on the rock and scrambled up the rest of the way. I should have taken video... but you can see him walking out to the rock in the next image!
Did I mention he plays baseball? And when I say he plays baseball, I mean that he plays all year long and is gone for extended times for tournaments and such. This kid is baseball!
This one is one of my absolute favorites! I was a little irritated with the weather for the 20 minute delay we had, but we probably wouldn't have gotten this image with the dusky sky if it hadn't been for the rain. Now, for the next time I know to ask for a better sunset!
