Alex met me at the Scottsdale Center for the Arts for her Senior Portrait.  There is a little park there in the middle of the city and it is very close to old town Scottsdale.  Between the two, we had all sorts of options for backgrounds.  Here are some of my favorite images from the portrait session.

I just realized, I have posted all smiling photos of Alex.  Well, she has a beautiful smile, so…

I love the rough planks on this building, but this wall of the building is only visible to the back parking lot and alleyway and there really isn’t much room to take the photo.  I would have loved a wider shot of the entire wall, but with all the cars in front of the wall, that wasn’t an option, so we went with a tighter portrait.

This next set of images remind me of an Anthropology catalog.  When Alex walked out in this dress, I immediately thought of Anthropology, so we went right to this ivy covered wall and my first order of business in post-production was to add the faded warm color treatment you see used on the photo.
