I was lucky enough that Anna found me in a Google search and had her mom contact me about photographing her senior portraits. She is from the central Michigan area, north of Flint, but wanted to have photographs of herself shot in and around Ann Arbor, especially the graphitti ally. If you have hung out in A2 at all you know the one, off Liberty near State. So tonight we met up on a wonderful fall evening, temps in the 50′s, to make some real cool photographs together. A big thank you to her mom for holding a light for me at times as I usually don’t work with an assistant. We hung out in the ally for quite some time and then hit up Starbucks for a coffee and change of clothes before walking to another ally/parking area that had a cool look to it. We ended in one of the parking structures like I usually do and made what I think is the best photo of the night (3rd image down). Anna was real easy to work with and was a good sport even when a little chilly when I wanted to get the light just right for the shot through the broken window. Especially since I couldn’t go inside, you know the whole trespassing thing, and was leaning into the window with the camera and just my hands then guessing on the angle of the shot. Love how the image of that below came out. I hope to shoot many more sr. photos in 2011 so if interested give me a shout!
