I had the absolute pleasure of helping my daughter’s friend, Jessica, with some portraits for her art school portfolio. Working around Jessica’s schedule, we had to shoot midmorning. Thankfully, downtown Tacoma is brimming with great locations that not only provide open shade but interesting colors and textures as well. Needless to say, I had such a great time with these two young ladies, and I was really glad to get a few shots of them together. These recent Bellarmine grads have already said goodbye to most of their college-bound friends, and in a few short weeks will have to say goodbye to each other as well. Thank you, Jessica! You are a beautiful girl from the inside out, and I wish you every success as you pursue your dreams in San Diego!
