Gabbie called me up earlier this summer to take her Senior Pictures.   She was referred to me by my September Bride Carli!  I love referrals!  Thanks Carli!

We decided to meet up at a local park for our first location and then head into Downtown Willoughby.  We also talked about what sort of things Gabbie likes to do – sports, tennis….and then the bomb…snowboarding!  It’s August!  How am I supposed to shoot snowboarding?  I came up with some cool, commercial shoot type ideas, but nothing we couldn’t pull off without a crew.  I told her not to worry about it because we had some time before the shoot and I’d get it figured out.

Well, the night of the shoot arrived and I still hadn’t figured it out.  Since it was hot and humid, we decided to shoot snowboarding last since she was going to put on some of her gear and I didn’t want to start the shoot off with her getting too hot.   By the time we got to snowboard, the sky was cooperating and a little rain had left the parking lot nice and shiny.  It was dark enough that anything but her the sky would be lit up with flash or the setting sun – a perfect way to hide the green of summer.  I think we pulled off August snowboarding pretty well!
