Karli & Alisha

Last night I met up with two grads who I had previously photographed a few years ago together. It’s so amazing to have that one friend in high school that you stick with and know you can count on. These girls had come in grade 10 to get pictures together, just for fun. I see them some day being in eachother’s wedding parties, celebrating achievments and sharing new experiences.  Thanks for coming girls. It was great to see you again :)

Sophia

Sophia was so much fun. She has a great personality, a fabulous smile, and she’s confident. She’s also very brave. She asked her aunt in Korea to pick out material and a pattern, and just whip her up a grad dress that she would like. I think that’s awesome!

Regina sessions

On Saturday, I went into the city to shoot a few sessions. It was absolutely gorgeous out, and I shot at all new places, so it was exciting for me. First up was a couple who wanted a session just because (actually I photographed them second, but when posting the images, they ended up first, so we’ll leave it that way!) I’ve known Anne for years, as she’s a fellow Grenfeller. Thanks to her bf Joel for being patient with me as a fumbled my way around the city, taking wrong turns and trying to back out of parking spaces with my big beastly truck!

We photographed at a mural that I have loved ever since it went up. It’s on the Cathedral Free House, and I love it’s vibrance and style.  I had never been up close to see that the artist’s name and website was on the curb.  The artist is Roberto Lopez, and after visiting his site, I was in awe. This is my kind of art! If I could afford it, I’d have huge prints hanging all over my house of his work.  Here’s his site…

The next session (the first one!) was a girl who I’ve photographed before, when her sister graduated. Ashley is a such a sweetheart, and she looked so pretty in her shimmery purple gown. Such a great smile too :) She reminds me so much of a girl I grew up with. In my head I was calling her Carly the whole time I was shooting.

Sunshine!! After having to reschedule this sessions a number of times due to rain, we got a beautiful night! The right amount of wind, some golden sunlight and a pretty brunette :)

On another note, this new blog is driving me crazy. I’m having all sorts of problems uploading images, and posting in general is just a pain in the butt for some reason. If you are facebook, I have a business page on there that you can like. I always post a few images from each session on there, so it’s always being updated.  Feel free to find me there if you don’t see any action here!  Just search Paper Moon Photography in Grenfell. There’s another Paper Moon studio in California, but they do mostly pinup stuff (which is great, but it’s not me!)

Grad -Tj

Tj and I went out last week around town to capture a few grad images for him. We hit a few areas, and managed to find a new one. It’s getting trickier to find new areas around Grenfell that I haven’t shot at before, so I’m trying to push myself to at least view them from a different angle or perspective. This new corner was pretty cool. It also helps that Tj is great in front of the camera.

Early Grad formals

I love when grad students book earlier in the season. I feel fresh, we have lots of time to play with, and it’s just nice to get back into the swing of things with formals. I loved this funky dress, and the railway was kind enough to have a beautifully placed train car with red graffiti that didn’t have any bad words on it. How convenient!

Cowesses Grads

I love photographing the Cowesses grads. I get to do their casuals every year, and they’re always great. We have lots of fun, use lots of sets, and get lots of variety.  Thanks again for coming everyone :)

Grad – Kendra

Grads are so much fun.  And I love that Kendra and her mom have such a close relationship.
