Belleville Senior Portrait Photographer - {RaShaun}

I recently got to spend some time with RaShaun who is a Senior at Belleville East.  This was a HUGE deal for me because I am a graduate of Belleville East (go Lancers) and had not been back on campus in *drum roll*....10 years!  GAH!  RaShaun and I strutted (yes we strut) around downtown Belleville and then around campus.  We chatted about teachers and how Coach Skaer gives out homework in PE (lame Coach Skaer...lame), running track, and how they have flat screen televisions in the cafeteria (say whaaa???).  Good times.  Oh and RaShaun has the best smile, so that made my job easy.  Here are a few from RaShaun's Senior Session.  Enjoy!

See....best smile ever....love it....

Of course I had to find me a red wall.....very excited about that one....

Then we roamed around campus....which is very fancy now....

RaShaun is a big track star....and I love the school colors (way better than icky maroon) 

RaShaun had a huge bag full of medals....oh RaShaun just wear them ALL....

(I picked out the pretty ribbon ones)

Congratulations RaShaun!  Good luck in college and keep on kickin butt in track!

Bad Week equals Spring Flowers...

Last week was one of the worst week's I've had in a long time.  I won't go into detail.....but just like everyone else....I have bad days....I have bad weeks.  Not even wanting to touch my camera (ya that bad), I finally ventured out into my backyard for some "photographic" therapy on Friday.  Retail therapy would have been nice too, but whatever.  I LOVE my backyard.....and I LOVE purple fields....so here you go. :)

Here's to a new week....
