Milestones

One day, one chance, no reshoot.

Graduation, convocation, prom, and engagements. Some of these days have a schedule and the light has a deadline, so every session is planned like the occasion it is. The photographs should feel like the day felt.

A graduate in a beaded red gown sits laughing on a park bench by the pond in the Halifax Public Gardens, her train spilling across the grass.
Close frame among the rhododendrons: she sweeps her hair back, red corsage tied at her wrist, looking away.
Standing by the pond in the red gown, mid-laugh, one hand raised to her hair, the train sweeping the grass behind her.

Couples and engagements

The yes, photographed.

At dusk by the lake, she looks back at the camera, her hand with the ring resting on his cheek.
A close frame of her hands crossed at her chest, the engagement ring catching the light.
She leans into his shoulder with her eyes closed, smiling, as they hold hands under the autumn leaves.
From above, the couple lies head to head on a deep red rug, her hand resting on his cheek.
