Water portraits!

Last week, I had a super cool senior session. As Mom and I discussed clothing and locations, we settled on the pool--a natural setting for this avid water polo player.  As the session neared, it hit me...I've been photographing my friend's kids in our pool for many years now just for fun and love how much the kids enjoy posing for me underwater, their goofiness and the bright colors of the sunlit pool.  I've been wanting to transfer that fun into my portrait sessions and this session was the perfect fit.  I asked if Taylor would be up for being in the pool and added the kicker--in his dressy clothes.

He was in.  Literally!

So, I took all the "dry" images I wanted.

Then he practiced his jump into the pool by jumping off the bleachers, while I set up my shot and the lighting.  I knew I'd really only have one chance at the perfect image.

BOOM goes the dynamite!!

And, icing on the cake, we shot THIS underwater.  

I've been talking about it for the last several years and am now excited to offer a limited number of pool portraits!  Pool Portraits can be done in swim suits or with clothing and props.  Our heated pool or the pool of your choice.  Let's dive in!  Drop me a line and let's book your session!
