Bennett is not one for being in front of the camera, but I loved working with his shyness. Sometimes, a shy person can have my favorite outcomes. Not all guys are excited to get senior pictures taken! I know, I know, surprise! Right! haha My advice to you, get them anyway. Years down the road you will love to have them and any insecurities we had at the time will be viewed totally different after years have passed. High School graduation only happens once and it’s good to capture it while it’s here. There is so much growing that’s done during college. I think that’s especially true for guys.

Bennett goes to one of my favorite schools around, Charles Wright. They really are extraordinary and I try to attend the graduation every year, but unfortunately this year it overlaps with other plans. I know that gradations can be boring, but for smaller private schools they are usually very well done and hold my attention. Charles Wright pairs students with faculty and each member of the faculty gives a gift to a student. Sometimes they have even created a little secret handshake they share before exchanging. The speakers are inspiring and the ceremonies are touching, performed on the outside grassy lawn in front of the school. I’ll miss not going this year :(.

My favorite image of the session.  Model looks.
