2020 Seniors

I only have three seniors that I've photographed this year: my nephew Mikey, my little cousin Harmony, and my best friend's niece, Jessie.  I wish I could say that I'm done editing all of their photos, but I wasn't able to focus on their pictures until after Christmas.  I spent most of the fall editing hundreds and hundreds of wedding photos.

Have I mentioned that I hate photographing weddings?  Well, I do.   They require so much time!  Not only do they require you to spend anywhere from 8-12 hours photographing everything and everyone on the day of the wedding, but then you have to weed out and edit hundreds of pictures.  Even if your brides are patient and kind, which mine were, there's a lot pressure to get pictures of the big day to them as soon as possible. 

Of course, high school seniors do have a couple of deadlines that I need to keep track of, too.  The first of which is the yearbook deadline.  The more photos they have to choose from at that time, the better.  In an ideal world, I would have had ALL of their pictures edited by the end of December, leaving them plenty of time to decide on their choice.  Unfortunately, thanks to those pesky weddings, that didn't happen and I feel bad about that.  

Not that I haven't been editing their photos.  They each have several they can choose from that I think would make beautiful yearbook selections. 

Even so, I still have a few hundred photos to finish up for both girls.  My nephew is nearly done, thank goodness!  Being a boy, he only wanted one very quick session.  Frankly, had I just taken pictures of him with his car and him with his girl, he would have been happy.  His mom rightly wanted a few of just him.

As for the girls, they have more outfit and location changes, many of which I've yet to edit.  My goal is to get everything to their moms by the end of February...wish me luck!
