Elizabeth Marie ::Senior Pictures::

Last Saturday I had the privilege to take the senior pictures of a friend of mine. I think they turned out rather well...but see for yourself.

(This isn't all the pictures I'm giving her--just some personal favorites. It was rather overcast, so I got to play with exposure and different filters to achieve a warmer or brighter effect. That was fun.)

This was taken outside of an old run-down middle school here in town...the place is a mess, but there's little pockets of interesting-ness if one knows where to look.

A set of interesting doors at the same middle school.

Changing locations to off the square at the 'old jail'. Fun fact: my grandma used to live here because her dad was the sheriff. It's an art studio now, of all things.

If the streets in town weren't paved, they'd all have this brick cobbling. It's interesting to look at, but rough as all get-out.

Trying some different angles...

...and trying out one's modeling poses. XD

Taking advantage of a yard filled with leaves! Thank goodness for church friends and their beautiful trees.

I think this one has almost a washed look to it...not quite like a painting, but somewhat. I like it, anyway.

And this was at the lake. Said lake might not have many redeeming qualities, but it does provide a nice backdrop.

I hadn't taken pictures for anyone for a long time--a poor experience doing wedding pictures has scarred me for life--and it was really nice to get out and take some pictures without a huge amount of pressure or fuss.

(Thought I will never do wedding pictures professionally again. Just sayin'.)
