Over the Summer, We held a Senior Portraits Photography Workshop through our club, the North Texas Photography Club. Here are a few example images of what I shot and what the attendees learned…

We will typically invite local High School Seniors to participate as Models in these workshops. This is a “Win-Win” situation for both the High School Senior and the Student Photographers. The High School Senior get a FREE portrait session and the student photographers get a Portrait Photography lesson using a live model. These type of arrangements are considered TFP photo shoots or Trade For Print. The Models spend their time working in exchange for digital images that will be given to them on a CD by each student photographer. I am always looking for new Models & High School Seniors to participate.

First is Alyssa. Here are a few of her images photographed by me. These images were photographed in McKinney, Texas in a new development known as Adriatica.

This area is designed after the themes from Croatia. In the second image, we place Alyssa ona balcony that was high up above the ground level. The up-wind from this area is what gave us a great “Wind Blown” look.

Finally, this one is my favorite. Here I posed her at the front edge of a pedestrian tunnel. The stone wall was a great prop to use. This pose I set up to display her class ring and to have her gazing off at a distance. Sometimes portraits look better when the subject is not looking directly at the camera. We lit up the scene by using 2 white reflectors as fill light. One from underneath and the other from behind. Notice the catch light in her eyes and we were able to highlight her dark brown hair against a dark background.
