Or “senior portraits” as they call this in America.
Cassidy was my first grad student of the year and she was a really cool kick-off into this year for me. I have to say that I really love doing grad photo sessions! It’s like taking all the creative opportunities from weddings and family portraits and condensing them into one session. And I can pretty much be as weird as I like with my ideas! That’s my goal in life: an excuse to be weird. 
Cassidy’s mum had set this up for her and I also called Cassidy before the shoot to get some idea of where she was at and what sort of things she’s into to help me to get photos that reflect her. I had a whole bunch of ideas for outside and then it rained! Actually, it rained and snowed all in the same day. But I am a practiced improviser and we used some indoor locations instead. In fact, I’m glad it rained, because the “plan B” locations ended up really fueling some creative vibes for me. And check out the cool colours in the first few images. Those are her bedroom walls! Crazy bright, eh?
