Katie - Senior Shoot

Today I got to shoot with an amazing senior. We shot over in Walkers Point, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to shoot, and on Bradford Beach. We had fun trying to chase Seagulls, falling through trailers, and kicking rocks. (I got some bruises on my shins from the trailer incident... but according to Katie, it looked like something out of a movie.)


When I got home, I removed my camera bag from my car. I grabbed it by one of the straps, but didn't realize that it wasn't zipped up. Tumbling out came my camera and a lens onto the concrete. My UV Filter shattered, but the lens works, but I cant get the broken piece off the lens. If you have any suggestions about that let a brotha know. Yeesh... not too fun.

David and Sarah

I am always running into people who know of me or know someone I know. Mutual friends. I have only been in WI for about 2 years (not including the time I was here in the summers for school stuff) and seemingly have met a ton of people who know each other or know of each other.

Last year, I shot senior photos for Joncarlos and out of the blue got a call from someone who was a friend of their family. She was getting married and was a photographer and wanted to talk about me shooting her wedding. Sarah, David, and I sat down to dinner and started to talk and from the get go I felt connected to them. They are fantastic peeps and it has been fun seeing Sarah spend money that David probably doesn't know about... buying photography gear... uh... oops.

We met up downtown and started to shoot outside. We were walking around looking for cool walls or empty lots that we could shoot in. I took a ton of photos while we went out walking and we had a great time. A little later in the evening, we went to the roof of the Metro hotel and took some photos up there. It was a beautiful evening and we got some amazing photos! Take a look!
