Jason's Senior Portraits

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

We went over to the disc golf course at Glacier Ridge Metro Park for some images with the targets. Since he's in the class of 2010, we had get one with the tenth goal.



It was a bit of a walk to the the 10th goal, and we stopped for a few images along the way.


I love the greens in the background of this one.

We started out at the studio.

Be sure to see Jason's slideshow to see more of his senior pictures.

Cassie's Senior Portraits

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Cassie's Senior session was so much fun. She has a great smile and a fantastic attitude -- and it really comes across in her portraits. Like this one on the bridge. It was one of the last ones of the day, but she looks amazing.



This next one is one of my favorites.


And here are a couple from the indoor part of the session.

I love the contrast of this one on the black.


Be sure to see Cassie's slideshow, too -- there are a lot more images there.

Tyler's Senior Portraits

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

This session was great. First we met Tyler over at the skate park in Powell early in the morning and then went back to the studio. For a while we were the only ones at the park, which was great, but I understand now why they wanted to get there fairly early. It's a popular hangout.

I'll get right to the portraits. These are at the skate park. Mostly with or on the scooter.

On this next one, he's actually going away from view, but with a spin -- I caught him as he was facing backwards.

Getting some air:

Be sure to check out Tyler's slideshow for more images, including some from the studio.

Mollie's Senior Portraits

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Mollie was here last week for her senior portraits. We've (sort of) known her for several years, as she was in the same drama group as our own kids -- she was just in the older classes. We were really excited when she contacted us for her portraits.



Luckily the creek still had some water. It's been pretty dry lately.


This next one is one of my favorites from this session.
[

The bright, tie-dye backdrop has been in demand lately.


Be sure to check out her slideshow, too.

Megan's Senior Portraits

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

We had a lot of fun with Megan when she was here for her senior pictures. We started out in the studio and then went down to the creek. She had the perfect dress for this tie-dye.



I thought this one looked great in black and white.



Here she is at the creek. She was wading and got a bit wet, too, but you'll have to go to the slideshow to see those images.



And we ended up at one of the new "old" cabins for nice backdrop.



Be sure to check out Megan's slideshow for more of her senior pictures.

Austin

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

The other day it was kind of rainy when Austin came in for his senior portraits. Luckily, it was clear at first so we went out for the outdoor session first. He also brought along his guitar.


Austin also does fencing so we did some with his fencing gear.

Be sure to check out his slideshow for more images and leave a comment below.

Jay

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Jay has always wanted to be a super-hero ... just kidding. But he did comment that it looked like a super-hero picture when he first saw this first image. This was another fun session we had last week. The clouds on that day were just amazing. I couldn't believe how dramatic they were -- I'm so glad we were able to take advantage of the sky.

We don't normally go to several locations, but we managed to get to the park and the stadium without the rain coming down. It was looking kind of dicey for a while.

This last image is at the rock in front of Coffman stadium. You'd never know it was all set up for the 4th of July with tables and trucks all around there. Getting the right angles so they wouldn't show was a little tricky, but it all worked out.

As always, Jay has a slideshow with more portraits, so be sure to check it out.

Grace

This post is from our Senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Grace is one of the latest seniors to stop by for portraits and I'm so glad she did. This first image has some wonderful textures in the wood wall.



I love the way the sun was lighting up her hair in this next one.



Be sure to see her slideshow for a few more images. But first, a couple more images:

Kelly

This post is from our senior site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

On Friday we went down to the creek again -- this time with Kelly. I think this first image really captures her spirit.



We're not quite to the creek, here, but I love this one.


And here we are in the water. It's nice when the water is so warm.
Be sure to check out her slideshow for more images.

What's a Canvas Gallery Wrap?

This post was originally found on our Senior blog site: Columbus Senior Portraits.

We often get asked about what Canvas Gallery Wraps are. It's one of the most asked questions we get, so I thought I'd do a blog post just to answer it. Eventually, it'll go into our page of FAQs. This is what a Canvas Gallery Wrap looks like:



What's nice about these is that they don't need to be framed, though you certainly can frame them, if you want. By not having a frame, you can move them to different rooms (or houses) and they won't need to be re-framed to match the new room. They're a little more modern-looking than traditional portraits. That one above is twenty by forty inches. Sounds huge, right?

This is how it looks over a couch in a modest-sized living room (12x15 feet).



It doesn't look as big as it sounds, does it?

Of course, if the Gallery Wrap isn't the only portrait on the wall, it can work well. This next image shows a 30 x 40 canvas in the middle with a 28x28 canvas on the left. On the right are a couple framed 11x14 prints for some perspective.



So, there you go. When we say that bigger is better for canvases, it's because we often get people coming back telling us they wish they'd gone with a bigger one.

Beth

This post is from our senior blog: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Beth is another Senior Spokesmodel from Dublin Coffman High School. We had such a great time in the studio and especially outside at this new (for us) location. As always, she has a slideshow, too.

This tie dye background is a trip. Bright, bold, and beautiful with Beth. Nice alliteration, eh?


This next image has such amazing colors -- especially in the water. Look at her "hippie shirt" -- isn't that great?


She just can't take a bad portrait. This rustic building was the perfect backdrop to show off her eyes.


Don't forget to see a lot more portraits in Beth's slideshow.

Courtney

This post is from our senior blog: Columbus Senior Portraits.

Courtney is one of our Senior Spokesmodels from Dublin Scioto High School. She was great to work with, if a little shy at first. Pretty soon she was dancing and posing and generally just having a great time.

We started out in the studio (as usual) but quickly moved outside. You can see the studio images in her slideshow. This was the first time we had taken a senior to this park but you can see there's a lot going on there. Well, this first one could be anywhere, I suppose. It's just a big tree.

This next one is on the back of a caboose that was moved to the park.

Don't forget to see more pictures in the slideshow.

Trevor's Senior Portraits

Trevor is one of our senior reps over at Dublin Coffman. That means if you want some free stuff with your senior pictures, hit him up for a card to bring in to your session.
We started out inside for some studio images.
The black-on-black looks great.
Then we switched it up with white and a change of clothes.

We headed over to Coffman to take some photos at the stadium.The Rock made a pretty cool backdrop! We also had great clouds for the photos.

Caleb's Sr. Portraits

Caleb is one of our last seniors of 2009. They weren't going to do them, but then decided to give us a call.
He's a guitarist and felt most comfortable with one of his guitars in his hands.
I was really happy about how the outdoor images look. The light was perfect.
And the park really suited his personality.
The whole session was relaxed and fun.
This next image is one of my favorites.
