Gorgeous Grad | Moncton Portrait Photographer

When I look at the work that my colleagues, and I are doing for the sake of Graduates these days, it makes me wish that I could still be in school, just so I could be a part of one of these super cool grad sessions.  When I was in school, Graduation, meant a cap and gown and walking across the stage, and a cheesy photo, holding a fake diploma, add your biggest farce of a smile you could produce.  

These days, graduation is more like a right of passage, it's an event, from the start to the finish of each year, realizing this, I realized how important it was for these grads to have something that shows who they were, at this time in their lives.  

I signed Jenna up first thing as one of my grad reps, I've known her for a lot of years, and was excited to have her in my Street Team Grad Program.  But, see, I'm used to seeing Jenna at the barn, in her barn clothes or under her hat at the horse shows... although we do have a session planned with her horse, we did these on a beautifully lit September Evening, just before school started!  

Enjoy

Out on a limb

I remembered receiving my 2010 Congress edition of the Equine Chronicle in the mail last year... if you haven't had the pleasure, think Sears wish book, and almost double it again.  It's big, and glossy, and beautiful, and with six hundred and seventy some pages, it's a heavy duty read.  Of course, though, I shamelessly, thumbed through the pages until landing upon the ad I had created.  There, amongst all the biggest names in the business, was my work.  It was a thrill, to say the least.  I smiled, right out loud!

This time... I wanted to be different.  So, instead of looking to the magazine for inspiration, I looked at my favorite home magazine.  Clean, and tidy, and when the idea struck, I went with it, I was worried that my clients would think I had lost my mind, but I trusted that they wouldn't go with it unless they believed in it.

So here, is our ad, for the 2011 Congress Edition of the Equine Chronicle, can't wait to have this one in my hands!  Thanks to Taylor, Shauna, Marven, Troy, and Alicia, Tim & Bev.

Congrats Taylor, and best of luck at Congress!
