I fulfilled the last two assignments while covering my little sister’s graduation. In between classic portraits and shots of her many performances and parties, I found some time for a few fun, off-the wall grad portraits.
juxtaposition no. 1
After the ceremony (which was held at night), we dropped by a supermarket to grab some food. The market had cut a lot of lights to keep energy usage down, but the lights on the produce cooler were still on. I loved the color and the soft white light so i ran out to the car, grabbed my camera and we shot this completely ridiculous portrait.

I thought it would be fun to show high school literally fading out of Megan’s life, but i didn’t want it to be a creepy ghost shot, so we chose kind of a jazzy pose.

YOU’VE GOT A GREAT GHOST SHOT GOING ON HERE. I LIKE HOW YOUR ABLE TO SEE SOME OF THE LETTERS STILL BEHIND HER… AND THAT YOU DIDN’T GET ANY OTHER BLUR FROM HER MOVING IN AND OUT OF THE PICTURE.
These turned out really cool. I love portraits that are out of the ordinary, so great job on these!
I love how you used the light in the produce section to take a picture. The ghost picture turned out really great too. I love the ghost shot and how the background is still in focus. Your pictures are awesome and I’m jealous you got to go home to Broomfield!
