As the husband of a graduate of the very fine Chapin High School, I of course tagged along to the 20 year reunion. I was ordered volunteered to take a group photo of the attending members of the class of 1989. It was quite a party. While I was there, I took the time to walk around and shoot a few impromptu portraits of the class members. I even set up a backdrop in a side room to shoot a few more formal portraits complete with the blue of the Chapin Eagles. (Well as close as I could get it with a flash and gels.)

A few from a very fun night!

I do have to say that these folks were EXTREMELY good sports to cram together like this and STAY PUT for almost 5 minutes while I made a couple of adjustments to the lights. It’s a little hard to tell at this size, but they all also kept up happy faces too!

My October couple is the very lovely Sarah and her loving groom,  Brad.  Rather than watch all those boring football games (all of them) Brad accompanied  Sarah out for their engagement session.  He quietly took his revenge by playfully coaxing me toward a 20 ft shear drop off,  while I tried to get the perfect shot of both of them, and later deftly failed to mention the dog poo only inches from my head during another shot.

It was all in fun and he was a great sport.  And with a bride to be as truly charming as Sarah, it’s easy to see why.

Just a couple from the day…
