Gabriel

If you’re friends with me on Facebook, you might recognize my nephew, Gabriel, from my “Family and Friends Friday” project that I work on sporadically. Back in September last year, I had a portrait session with him. I guess I must have done an alright job because he contacted me about doing a shoot over his winter break. Originally we thought about trying for an indoor location for this shoot. However, the weather on this particular day was so nice that I felt like we’d be foolish to pass it up. Plus, I had some locations in downtown Waukegan that I thought would make for a good backdrop in his photos.

Jarrett | Headshot

When Jarrett contact me in need of a new headshot, I was in the midst of getting my studio ready for the September ArtWauk. As a result, at that time I couldn't used my studio space and instead opted for shooting in downtown Waukegan. I think these photos were helped by the fact that there was a little bit of an incline at a couple locations. This help me to make up for the height difference without having to stand on my tippy toes.
