Luke – Kamiakin Senior Portraits, Kennewick, WA

Allan — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 05:48:49 +0000

Meet Luke. He is a soccer extraordinaire and a really good guy. We had a great time hangin’ out and talking about Ray Bans, aviator sunglasses, and long boards. If I’d have known they would be back in style, I would have kept mine from back in the day in a safe place. Live and learn. Please check out his pics.

Josh – Richland High Senior Portraits

Say hello to Josh. Josh comes from a family of musicians. He rocks the drums. On top of that, he is smart, funny, and has plans to study engineering. He’s the whole package. He’s pretty good looking too, according to his girlfriend. That’s right, ladies…Josh is taken.

Jared – Kennewick High School Senior Portraits

Allan — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 22:12:15 +0000

Meet Jared. He’s a little reserved, but behind the quiet smile is a soccer star, academic achiever, mountain biker, and much more. He has big dreams and given the support of his family and his history of achievements, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him succeed big time. Oh, and he photographs pretty well, too.

Say hello to Annie! This beautiful young lady is as talented as she is smart. She dances, she aces her classes, and she is highly photogenic. Last weekend, we had a great time hanging out in downtown Kennewick and at the park. Check out some of her pics.

This session was characterized by good light, a fun senior, and the “bend and snap.” Oh, indeed I have pictures. BUT, in consideration of those involved, I will keep those tucked away. The portraits that I can proudly show are on exhibit below. Please check them out.

This young lady is a total sweetheart and I’m glad we got to hang out. Thanks a bunch!

Dramatic Senior Portraits in Pasco, WA

Senior portraits present a perfect opportunity for seniors to express their passions and personalities. This young lady is bright, beautiful, and talented. Her passion is in the performing arts. Her friend was able to hook us up and give us access to the theater at Columbia Basin College.

We took one second to grab some shots in front of the performing arts building, which has an awesome ivy-covered wall.

She’s already totally comfortable on stage.

I love naturally lit shots, but when you’re in a theater or some other indoor location, you’ve got to make your own light. This is a two light setup…one gelled light for background separation and one at camera right to light the subject.

This one better get used to being under the lights. I already told her that when she becomes famous, I’m going to be able to sell copies of her senior portraits for big bucks!!!

Like I said, this girl has talent…

…and good looks.

Thanks for a fun session. Blessings to you and I know that there won’t be any stopping you! Just remember to remember the little people, especially your senior portrait photographer. ; )

Family and Senior Portraits – Tri-Cities, WA

Old Blog — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 05:21:34 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful family the other day. It was blazing hot (100+ deg F) but we had a good time anyway. One of the cool things about my portrait sessions is that within reason, you can use your time however you please. This family wanted to get some senior portraits of the twins and some family portraits during whatever time was left over. Your wish is my command…

This location looked pretty cool, but the smell was less than pleasant. Everyone was extremely gracious and did what it took to get the photo. True models…

Wowza. Great looking kid, huh?

Good looks must run in the family. The twins were a crack up to work with. Whenever I was photographing one of them, the other one was behind me cracking jokes and making funny faces.

Ahh…now we know where the twins get their good looks.

We were just about to wrap up when we noticed the enchanting moon. Squeeze off a quick photo FTW.

Hot night, but very cool family. Thanks for enduring the heat with me!

Blessings to all.

Celebrity Senior Portraits – West Richland, WA

Old Blog — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 15:56:19 +0000

The other day, I had the honor of photographing a very special and famous little girl. Her name is Liz Evett and she’s famous for being brave and for accomplishing more in her young life than many (check here, here, and here). She recently created a bucket list, which contains things she wants to do before she kicks the bucket, and although a senior portrait session wasn’t a specific item on her list, I heard it was something that she wanted. So, through the local Soroptomist group, we made it happen. She’s the sweetest thing ever. Oh, and she happens to love all things Asian. Liz, did I happen to mention that I’m Chinese?

Liz is part of the Hanford High School Class of 2009!

Liz’s proud mom…

Liz with me, her mom, and her dad. She’s holding a scroll from China on which is written the Bible passage, 2Peter 1:5-7. The passage encourages us to have faith and to supplement that faith with virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, and LOVE. Liz is a great example for us.

God bless you, Liz. I had a great time and you look mah-velous. You’re a real natural!

Emily – puttin’ da’ bomb in Bombers

Old Blog — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 06:06:34 +0000

Emily comes from a long line of Bombers. She is preceded by her mom and a bunch of her relatives. So, being a Bomber is really significant to her and her family. It was clear from my time with her that she makes them proud, and for good reason…she’s da’ bomb!

Given her family history, we had to do some of her portraits at her school, the alma mater of her mom and so many of her relatives.

I love his one because it tells the story so well and because it’s clear that Emily’s mom is so very proud.

More from around the Richland High campus

The rest of our time was spent just hangin’ around some cool, historic parts of Richland.

Thanks Emily! It was a blast hangin’ with you.
