Tyler (Tighler) is a Class of 2012 senior at Bayfield High School and is one of our models. I’ve had the opportunity to photograph Tyler before when I photographed his family portraits this past summer. I also photographed his older brother, Alex, for his senior portraits a few years ago. I absolutely LOVE working with this family so I have been super excited that Tyler wanted to participate in our model program! We had a blast during his model session, with Tyler’s dad, Michael, trying to make Tyler smile and/or laugh for his his portraits. This worked on Tyler sometimes, but on me every time, so I was laughing the entire session. We actually got quite a few portraits with Tyler smiling but apparently I am a fan of his “serious face” since his sneak preview ended up being more serious than smiley. Tyler had great outfits for his model session – a simple black and white outfit (of which I am always a fan) and an all black outfit with a great “teal” tie. Tyler also had a very cool bass guitar that ended up being a great prop! We started in the studio, then headed out to a “teal” building, then a rust orange garage door, for a complimentary color palette. It was a very nice afternoon weather wise and Tyler was a great model – win/win! Hope you love these few of my faves!
