Will He Ask Me?

I don’t do a lot of large events, but I’ve been working with Jonah Gilmore of Rocket Science Photography on some high school dances this year, and it’s been a whole lot of fun! Homecoming was on October 19th, and Jonah brought this wild red fabric to use as a backdrop.

These young people got royal treatment, and we took some really beautiful photos. I don’t know about you, but my school dance photos began with me being asked which of the four poses on the board I’d like for my photo, and one click later being told I’d receive my package in the mail. Jonah’s style allows me as a photographer to be more free with my posing and take time to work with each couple and make sure we get that perfect expression. Because of this, the students end up with a choice of multiple images and since they got to participate in the process and craft something that represents who they are, they ultimately choose a product they will really be able to treasure.
