Heather is a Quincy High School student, but for her portraits we went on location to Davenport WA (near Spokane) to a neat old farm owned by the family. No one lives there anymore, but the the location was perfect. The weather had been a bit stormy, but it calmed down in the evening and the remaining clouds gave us some stunning images.
Big props to heather and her hoarse Snickers for doing such a great job. The top image is one of my favorites, but there were so many to choose from. Heather will be getting a senior album so she can show all her poses as well as a one of our canvas Wall Portraits of the image above. It’s going to look great in their home. Here’s a few more favs from the session. Enjoy, Gav

Taken in Central WA wheat, this is an HDR portrait I made using Photomatix and my Photoshop know how. I like going wide with a cinematic scene that has a plenty of mood but is also simple. I love the motion blur on certain areas of this wheat and the swirling sunset. All that and Sondra in that red dress make this really hit the spot. If you want to learn more about HDR, see my HDR articles on Pro Photo Show.
If you’re planning a session always consider the possibilities. Everyone does not want the same style, but everyone should have something that makes them look great and looks great on the wall as a big beatiful print. I like the style of sessions I do because it’s not about grabbing a portraits quick and going home. I like to get to know my subjects and make something really amazing.
