Senior Photos- Reid

Guys are usually so easy. (to photograph, that is!) Senior guys especially. I'd say 90% of the time mom has picked out a shirt, and that's about the extent of planning that they've done for their senior pictures. :)
We showed up to Reid's house for our appointment and when he answered the door, his response was, "Oh yeah, senior pictures... I forgot." Now if this had been a girl's appointment, we would have entered crisis mode. Hair would have to be done, makeup, outfits, the works. BUT, this was a guy. He ran up to his room, grabbed a couple shirts and we were off. Crisis averted. :)
I photographed Reid's older brother, Conner, a couple years ago. Both of the boys chose to have their pictures taken at their house on their family property, which was totally fine with me!

They live on a beautiful piece of land and I can't imagine having it as your back yard growing up. As you look around, there are many paintball marks and evidence of the boys that live there-which I love. I can just imagine the guys running around shooting at each other... which I hear is a frequent occurrence.

One of my favorite locations ended up being an old barn on the property. The light was pouring in all the cracks and it just seemed kinda magical. When I showed Reid what these looked like on the back of the camera, he had no idea they would look so cool!

Thanks for being so easy, Reid. And thank you to your family for opening up your home to us again. Good luck with the rest of the year!
