This senior year was not the year of the boy; I had so many girl clients, but when I did have a guy client, the change of pace was nice. Girl posing is much different than guy posing. But sometimes, you have to joke with the guys and make them think I’m going to make them do a girl pose. I love the reactions; it usually helps them relax a bit. But Spencer? Spencer was a tough nut to crack.
He smiled great; he’d just had his braces removed the day before and was ready to show off those pearly whites. But I couldn’t get even a chuckle. Not a guffaw, a snicker, nothing. You’d think telling him to “strike a fierce pose” would at least get a giggle, but nope. Spencer was as cool as a cucumber.
But hey, I won’t complain because his session was still fantastic. It was actually pretty cool to walk the golf course with him and his mom, making sure to get a great variation of backdrops and poses. From classic smiles to contemplative looks (I swear he was born for those), we captured the essence of Spencer's senior year.
Congratulations, Spencer! Your poker face is legendary, but your photos? Absolute winners.
