Seattle Senior Portrait Photographer, Elliott class of 2010

Thursday, April 29, 2010 Posted in Senior Portraits.

We don’t photograph many guy seniors, mainly because our business caters to high school girls, but when we do it’s fun & refreshing! Here’s a little something different for the blog today, a recent guy senior portrait session! Leave Elliott some rad comments, because he’s a cool dude! It started to pour on us at the very end of the shoot, and we totally lucked out because we just happened to stumble upon a baseball field with a covered dug-out, which was perfect since Elliott is a Baseball Player!

Kodi - He looks like Chase on the show House.

Wesley - Love this shoot, for a change a bit more nature and less buildings :)

Just curious did you guys used mens make-up or is his skin just as smooth as silk ?

Keep up the good work i really enjoy every single photo on this website!

Yolanda - The magic of what you do, Michelle, is that every single person you capture looks like a super model. This guy is gorgeous! I love all of his preppy, blue outfits. Especially the jeans + twil blazer.

Jessica - These are great! I was a bit stumped on how guys could pose, so this is helpful. These look very natural and he seems to be a cooperative subject! Love the first dugout one, as well as the second one on the gravel shore.

Dennis Bullock - Excellent!

Michelle Moore - Thanks everyone! @Wesley, now that Spring is here you’ll finally be seeing a lot more nature locations again! @Kodi, yes he does remind me a bit of Chase from House!!

ryan - This is a great shoot! Glad to see some refreshing guy senior stuff instead of the typical drab shoots that tend to be so common for guys. Nice work!

lesley - He is simply charming!! Awesome job on the images! :)

Whitney - He DOES look like Chase from House. But not one would argue that that’s a bad thing. :). Guy senior photos can be tricky, it seems that a lot more of them are nervous in front of the camera. But you really nailed it! These look spectacular.

Tina Harden - Awesome! Handsome kid!

s h e r r y - He is cuuuute; love his eyes. AND YES! CHASE FROM HOUSE. Omigosh. Haha, the entire post, I was trying to figure out who he looked like. Thanks to all the previous commenters for settling that for me! :)

Mary - Michelle, I’m blown away! I love these senior-boy shoots. I love the beach scene so much–it’s super classy and laid-back but absolutely gorgeous as well. You caught such a great array of moments from him — and he’s super cute ;).

tish - GREAT shots! I love seeing a guy for a change and the different poses you used with him. Do you mind sharing your aperture on the 9th photo (horizontal closeup, subject to left of frame, blue sweater) and the 17th photo (first pic by chainlink fence)…I am always amazed at how you get both eyes, nose and mouth is such clear, sharp focus at wide apertures).

I adore the moods of the second one in his ball jacket where he is looking back atthe camera and the third one by chainlink fence where his arms is up on fence…both capture such great personality and emotion.

tish - oh, i think on Fb you asked about how people comment (whether at original post of by clicking on post to open)??? well, i can never comment off your home page when i click the comment link there. i have to click on the post first and then the comment box will show up.

Kim - Great session Michelle, he’s a cutie pie guy! I always look forward to your magic!

Apple - i love his eyes!;)

Julie - so fun to see a guy do this. Awesome shots- love the poses and outfits too :)

Bruce - GREAT shots! I love seeing a guy for a change and the different poses you used with him. Do you mind sharing your aperture on the 9th photo (horizontal closeup, subject to left of frame, blue sweater) and the 17th photo (first pic by chainlink fence)…I am always amazed at how you get both eyes, nose and mouth is such clear, sharp focus at wide apertures).

Michelle Moore - @Bruce – f1.4 – I shoot at this aperture 90% of the time.
