Sharayah: Las Cruces Senior Photos

November 24, 2010

Sharayah might look familiar to long-time readers of the blog: she was our junior rep last fall. She’s back this year in some more incredible images, featuring her dad’s Ford Bronco 4×4, and a couple of grungy shots from some of our favorite locations around town. Enjoy!

    Nice set! I love that last location!

Lacy Diamond Dash

October 30, 2010

Last weekend, Roz and I photographed the Lacy Diamond Dash, a scavenger hunt in El Paso with a $20,000 diamond ring as the grand prize.

The hunt was powered by SCVNGR, technology that asks questions and accepts answers through a mobile-phone interface. All of the questions were location-specific (translate the Roman numerals on a certain sign and submit the number, for example), which forced two-person teams to run around downtown El Paso in search of answers.

The winning team visited all of the locations, and reported only missing three questions. Screaming Light was chasing people around for nearly two hours, following the bright-orange shirts and looking for photo ops. (We actually pulled up the game on our mobile phones and played along; it was tons of fun to see where everything was, although we were too busy taking photos to actually seek out the answers!) Afterward, the SCVNGR and Lacy teams hosted a party at The Plum, where the winning team was announced!

We had a ton of fun, and the fast-paced game and varied locations forced us to change up the careful, studied pace we use for portrait sessions and even weddings, for an ultra-fast-paced, completely photo-journalistic style of photography, using long lenses in full desert sunlight. It was a refreshing change of pace mid-senior-portrait-season; we’re hoping it becomes an annual El Paso event!

Rachel: Mayfield Senior

Rachel is possibly the most unique senior we’ve photographed this season. She earned her pilot’s license about a week before her senior portrait session, so she flew the plane she trained on up from El Paso to the Las Cruces Airport for some pictures. Rachel’s planning on a career in engineering; she’s interested in mechanical and aerospace, and trying to decide between MIT and Stanford.

After the airport, we went to Rachel’s family farm for some images with her brother and sister, and possibly one of my favorite geek images of all time, in which Rachel is literally illuminated by the large book she’s reading. Our final stop was one of our desert spots with a mountain view, for some high-fashion images.

Shen: Surreal Mayfield

Shen’s a senior at Mayfield High School. She’s very active in theater there, and also very into surrealist art, and funky life. For her senior photos, we decided on less-traditional locations, including a junkyard, under a graffiti’d bridge abutment, and in front of the newest piece of public art in Las Cruces.

Diana: Oñate Senior

Diana plays guard for the Oñate Knights, so her session started in the studio with some high-key basketball images. Her session included locations from Doña Ana to Mesilla, and wound up after sunset on the banks of the Rio Grande. Diana’s older sister Clara also played basketball during her high school years, and we made sure to capture a few images of the two of them together, looking tough in front of the Organ Mountains.

Jessica and Craig: Family Photos

October 4, 2010

Jessica and Craig wanted some photos to celebrate life, their first anniversary, and completing graduate school. We took them, with their dog, cat, and rabbit, out on the town for some awesome shots in front of the Organs. Then, we headed up towards Organ for some retro-style grunge; Jess had recently hit the Buffalo Exchange in Albuquerque, where she picked out perfect outfits for both of them!
