Senior Fashion Portrait
High school senior photos have always seemed a little boring to me and I never really wanted to pursue marketing myself as a senior portrait photographer. However, when Trevor asked if I would be interested in doing a "fashion" type photo shoot for his senior portrait I didn't hesitate to get him in front of the camera. I thought it was a great idea! We had a blast taking his senior fashion photos all around Santa Barbara. Trevor did an amazing job modeling considering it was his first time. His sister Cristina actually modeled for me a while back and I am sure she taught him a few things about modeling, check out her photos HERE.
My own philosophy on life has always been reflected in my photography. Photography is not a simple mirror image of people and their lives. Photography has the power to turn fantasy into reality and forces new thoughts and ideas. Oscar Wilde once said that “Life imitates art, far more than art imitates life”, and I think he was right. It is my passion to enrich the lives of others through my own art of photography, and to allow people to capture their lives in a way that fuels their imagination and their dreams.
