Senior Sneak Peek {Michigan Senior Photographer}

I have been really excited to show you some pics from this senior session. It just seems my sneak peeks get farther and farther behind these days. So...for this session, I travelled to Grand Ledge MI. It was my first time to Grand Ledge and I have to say, I loved it. There were so many awesome places to do pics, I found it very hard to not show a ton from this session!! So a little background here...Mom booked this session way back in the spring with me. When we were talking on the phone she told me about all the things that her son was involved in and I was really excited to do this session. I am not even showing everything in this sneak peek, because there was just so much fun stuff to show it all. But the thing that got me really excited was the Fire Station possibility. Mom told me how "I" was a Fire Explorer and worked at the Grand Ledge Area Fire Dept and wanted some pics done there and I said if they would allow it, that would be awesome!! So they checked into it and they were fine with it. As I was thinking about all the thing I wanted to do at the Fire Station the very first thing I absolutely knew I wanted was an image that would evoke emotion and tell a story about what Fire Fighters mean to our country. When we got to the Fire Station I talked to "I" and told him what I was envisioning and gave him a little bit of info about the image I was trying to create. I knew the minute he stepped up to that doorway, art was being made. I could see the finished version in my head already and honestly it gave me goosebumps. I don't mean to get all emotional, but if you really stop and think about what fire fighters do and what they mean to your neighborhoods, towns, cities, our country. The risks they make everyday for others, to me it does evoke emotion and I hope the very first image says something about that.

I can't go on with this post though without saying a couple more things. First off, to "I" the senior you see in all these pictures. It was the absolute hottest day this summer by far that I've done a session in and look at all the fire gear he is in...he was an absolute trooper!! Thank you "I" for being so awesome during our shoot!!

Also a HUGE shout out to the Grand Ledge Area Fire Dept for being so gracious and allowing us to have access to the Fire Station for these pictures. They were awesome to work with and I can not thank you enough for allowing us to do this!! I hope these photos do the work you do everyday justice. And make sure "I" shows you all the pics, as these are just the sneak peeks and there are many many more awesome ones from the fire station :)

Okay, I am done rambling now...onto the pics :)

My favorite one...and it is titled "Courage"

This one looks awesome in color too, but I have to save some surprises for when you guys see your gallery :)

The fire trucks were SO shiny, they made for some great reflective play. I have more reflection ones too that I love, it was SO hard to pick!!

Love how focused his look is in this and with the b&w...I just love it.

Okay, I really would love to show more from the fire station, but I am saving the rest till your gallery is up, I know I am terrible :)

So onto some others. Downtown Grand Ledge had so many cool places to take pics.

I loved this old stairway :)

And having a little fun with the sun-glasses :)

Hope you enjoyed your sneak peek. If you are stopping by, feel free to leave a comment. Let me know what ya think, I love to hear from you :)

Thank you to the "B" family for hanging out with me for the afternoon and to "I" for letting me be apart of your senior year!!
