Lights...Camera...JACOB!!

It seems I have been the go-to for the up-and-coming stars of Milledgeville lately. First it was Taylor-the screamband screamer, then Leighton with his mad guitar skills, then Elizabeth the amazing Ballerina, and now...Jacob, the actor. Jacob has spent the past few years floating on stage! He has been on a few cruise lines as part of the performance crew. While he loves doing that, he is looking to branch out while on land for some different roles. In order to do this, he needs some more updated headshots. I love a new challenge, so in preparation for this session, I did some research (delightlfully aided by Jacob too). Today's actors are moving away from the standard black-and-white headshots, and going for a more vibrant, personal look. As one of the top headshot photographers in New York, Peter Hurley, said-'If you have red hair and your headshot is black and white, how the heck is any casting agent going to know?!'

Jacob & I hit the town in search of some of the more urban locations. As many of you may already know, Milledgeville is not what you would call urban! I must say, however, we found some pretty cool locations-and I really hope the new headshots help get Jacob the leading role in the next big project! Keep your eyes open for his website too. I had a great time Jacob-thanks for letting me be a tiny part of your acting career! Enjoy!!

Senior Rock Star!

Taylor is the singer in a scream band, and wanted something a little 'off kilter' for his session. Since Milledgeville is not known for it's rocker styles and musical tastes, it was a fun challenge to find somewhere for this shoot. We had fun exploring the nooks and crannies of this place, and I think Taylor's rock-star attitude...and amazing greenish-blue eyes...really shine through in these images.
If you know Taylor, ask him for a referral card-you can receive 10% off your own senior portrait session with it! Enjoy the pictures!

Brave Girl!!

Audie braved the heat, the potential for snakes, and more in order to play in the hayfield for her senior portraits! When discussing locations for her session, her mother told me that as long as it involved a tractor or a barn, Audie would be set. We didn't quite have the barn, but between the creek, tall hay, big round bales, a few tractors, and more, I think we captured the essence...and dimples...of this Jones County High Senior. If you know Audie, ask her for a referral card-you can receive 10% off your own senior portrait session with it! Enjoy!!!

A Girl Named Becky

So my friend Becky came over the other day, and she did some modeling for me while I worked on lighting and such. It is always nice to have a friend willing to be my guinea pig and Becky was up for being put in and on weird places with a smile on her face. If you are thinking of scheduling a Senior Session, you should be ready to have fun, express yourself, and put yourself in places you wouldn't go everyday! Depending on your personality and true colors, we will travel all over town or wherever you and I think would be fun! Feel free to send me an email, leave a blog comment, or give me a call if you have any questions about sessions or want to talk more about scheduling! And of course, thanks to Becky for being my guinea pig! Enjoy!
