Let me introduce Alex, a senior with the class of 2017 at Bellarmine Prep! We met at Chambers Bay in University Place recently and could not have asked for a more perfect evening.
These old concrete structures, left over from the gravel quarry days, gave us plenty of open shade to work with while we dodged the sun for a bit.
Alex is one busy guy, and when he isn’t building in the robotics lab, running cross-country or working on his marine chemistry project, he likes to hit the slopes. He even had an “epic” idea for an action shot, but his dad put a quick stop to whatever he was scheming!
I absolutely love this shot! I don’t know how we managed to get a serious look out of him because he had me laughing most of the evening, but he nailed it!
I’m pretty sure Alex was messing with me at this point, trying his best to be goofy, but again, we ended up with a great look!
This “behind-the-scenes” shot is exactly what I’m talking about! He was always doing something unexpected, but his take on Superman had us all cracking up.
Bellarmine Pride! Go Lions!
We finished off at the beach so we could incorporate Alex’s enthusiasm for snorkeling and scuba diving into his senior session. The only thing missing is a surfboard. I don’t know if he’s ever tried surfing, but he looks like he would fit right in on the waves.
Thank you, Alex! You showed up ready to go with such a great attitude, and you made the evening so much fun. I hope you have a fantastic senior year. Enjoy it all! Good luck as you discern your college choices, and I wish you every success wherever you land.
