Senior Drum Major | Michigan Photographer in Midland

October 15, 2017

I can honestly say that I think I have the best clients ever. The seniors that I’ve had the privilege to work with this past year have all been incredible humans. Grant is no exception. He is hard-working, kind, talented, and simply charming.

A year or so before his session, I had donated a senior session to a silent auction for a friend. Grant’s mom bought it, and when he finally became a senior we were able to go out and get his pictures taken. He and his mom met me for our session at Dow Gardens. After we shot for a while there we headed on over to Grant’s high school – H.H. Dow High. There we were able to take my favorite pictures of the evening (the ones with the trombone!!!) as well as get some awesome shots with him in his band uniform. Grant was the drum major in band his senior year. It brought me back to the days of being in band myself. I LOVED band. The position for drum major here is highly-coveted, and I’d say Grant was well-deserving of the honor.

We ended the evening with some silhouetted shots of him on the bleachers, and I left the parking lot feeling so super excited about the entire session and excited to edit the pictures we just took. This has turned out to be one of my favorite sessions. I’m thrilled to show you some of the best shots from the evening.
