You Never Know

Coming out of the movie theater the other night the light was unreal, as it is at times in Minnesota. It had stormed while I was watching the movie. But when I came out the rain had stopped, the sun was starting to set in the west with a wall of dark charcoal grey clouds lay to the east.

The light had this luminous quality that is hard to explain and is better viewed in the flesh. In those moments time seems to standstill and I'm witness to a completely surreal scene. Time to take out the iphone. I love my Nikon for most of my work but I must admit I love my iphone. It's simple, I have no other choices to make other than where to stand and when to snap the shutter.

Here are two shots I managed to take trying not to get myself or anyone else killed in the process.

Congratulations Class of 2009!

It's the end of the school year and another group of high school and college students are on to the next step on the path of their lives.

I really love doing Senior Portrait shoots. This is truly one of the most poiniant turning point in everyone's life. I remember my eighteenth year well!

Here are just two of the seniors I photographed this year. Enjoy your summer and good luck on the next leg of your journey.
