Since COVID-19 happened, graduation itself has been a bit of a whirlwind for 2020 graduates. These JMU seniors did graduate this past May, however their actual graduation has been postponed till August 7-8. Graduation sessions usually take place in Late March and all of April, however because of the latest pandemic, most people have waited till it was safer to do so.

These four ladies were roommates while they studied at JMU and decided to their grad pics together. We decided to start their grad session at 7:30am for that cooler June weather and less people would be outside. We got some amazing shots of these awesome grads, celebrating the four years they put into college.

I had the awesome opportunity to photograph James Madison University’s Mozaic Dance Team on November 15th, 2019. This talented group of people were great models for our 2 hour session and we got some amazing photos of these dancers. Mozaic went on to compete at Prelude Dance Competition in Richmond the next day, and placed 2nd place! Shout out to this wonderful group of people.

This portrait session took place both on the James Madison University campus as well as in the scenic area of Downtown Harrisonburg. We first started off shooting on top of the Chesapeake Parking Garage on JMU’s campus. Photographing Tran with awesome views of Harrisonburg in the distance resulted in amazing photos. After that, we moved on to Downtown. Walking around we got some amazing photos in simple spots like alley-ways, murals, and churches. I had so much fun working with Tran and photographing her stunning beauty and fun personality. Here are the results:

I had the opportunity to do a photo shoot with a good friend of mine and his sister. These two humans are both funny and photogenic, showing their true colors during their photoshoot. It was all laughs, smiles, and a hint of seriousness during the session, getting a full view of their personalities. We first started the session in Downtown Harrisonburg, VA, but with it being extremely cold and windy, we didn't stay out there for long. We soon moved to Duke Hall on the JMU campus. Duke Hall is like a second home to me, being an art major. I knew their open windows and awesome style would be perfect for these two siblings. Here's the result:
