Summit Graduation 2010

Graduation was today. It always makes me cry. It just makes me feel so proud to see my students walk across that stage. Here's a little slideshow from the photos I took at the graduation.

If you are watching this and you will be a senior next year. First of all take photo class. It's awesome and second book me to shoot your senior portraits. This is my special for you since I'm feeling all warm and fizzy from graduation. Mention that you found me through my graduation slideshow and have your senior portraits taken before August 12, 2010 and get an extra $25 credit to spend on whatever you want in my online store. All my packages include a portrait credit in the store but you'll get an extra $25 for booking your session this summer. If you just graduated and didn't get portraits made then do it now...there's still time and I'll give you the extra $25 credit too! See more information on my website.

Here's your slideshow!

Graduation and link to Graduation Slideshow

Summit High School held graduation today at the Potter's House and of course I was there to take pictures. I've posted a slideshow with music on my website but before I give you the link I want to share a few of my favorite photos from the day.

First up is this photo of two girls and one of my students, Chase, sitting in the halls waiting for the graduation to start. I love the bare feet and the way Chase is holding his mortarboard in front of him instead of wearing it on his head.

Next is these two graduates peeking through the doors just before the ceremony starts. This is the kind of photo I looked for every graduation I went to when I worked at the newspaper. 

A detail photo of the 09 on the tassel.

Monika and Hayden look for their relatives. 

Jennifer Demick hugs Mariska after she received her diploma and walked through the line-up of teachers. I cannot stand in the line of teachers because I will cry. Seriously cry and when I cry I can't see to take pictures :)

Finally, Superman...this kid was great. He was near the end of the graduates and as his name was called he pulled open his gown to show his superman shirt. I loved it!

If you want to see more photos from graduation you can see the slideshow here. It will also be posted on the school website in a few days but I have to get up to the school to post it and I have classes the next two days...
