Portraits!






















The picture of me is as my little brother, Jesse. Since he graduated last year when I come over I always think he is gone. No, he's home. He's just doing exactly as I am in that picture. Playing Call of Duty (I wasn't actually playing but I was in the game to get the light.) 
The second is of my little sister, Virginia. I chose her because she looks so different from the rest of us. All of us are pale, but she also has a very different face, I tease her that she has no eyebrows, and she has light hair. Also, she has not hit the makeup yet. Still "innocent." During this particular shoot my light was dropped and I think it caused a short in the cord (yay...not) so we went and found a lantern that doubles as a flashlight and you can change how big the circle of light is. This was THE VERY LAST picture I took. While taking the pictures I thought "eh" but I looked back at them the next day and since I was going backward I saw this one first. I LOVE this picture. Because of how bright and defined the line is you may not, but that's exactly what I love about it. Also, it creates cool shadows which I also love.
I did not get someone I did not know because it fell through. I was supposed to photograph my fiancee's older brother's boyfriend whom I have seen but never spoken to. They are working on their house and canceled last minute.
