Glide “Wildcat” Softball | roseburg senior photographer
As many of you know Glide’s Softball team is going to be playing for the State 3A Championship tomorrow! This is the first time that Glide has gone to state since 1997 so it is a BIG deal! While I know several girls on the team and am proud of them all… I have to brag a bit on one in particular. Marissa Duarte is the team pitcher, she is also one of my 2011 Senior Models! Marissa had a great write up in Thursday’s NewsReview for being the Female Prep Athlete of the SEASON!! She has an 18-1 record in the pitchers circle with an 0.53 ERA, with 181 strikeouts and 33 walks in 105 1/3 innings… now if you are like me and not a softball genius that may sound like gobbledy-gook… suffice to say it means the girl is GOOD!
So, if you don’t have plans for tomorrow make the drive up to Portland and support some local girls who have worked super hard and just may be the State Champs on Sunday!
Miss Douglas County Pageant | southern oregon photographer
By now you are probably wondering what the heck I have been up to! Well, I have been busy photographing the contestants for this year’s Miss Douglas County Pageant! I have no idea how the judges can possibly choose a winner … these girls are all so nice AND beautiful! Their portraits will be on display soon at Roseburg Book & Stationary on Jackson St. in Downtown Roseburg so be sure to stop by and cast your vote for Miss Photogenic!
Roseburg High School Swim Team | roseburg oregon senior photographer
Two of my High School Senior Models are on the Roseburg High Swim Team… so of course I had to take a few photos of them in the pool! I must say that shooting in the YMCA pool area is not ideal! The lighting is pretty horrible because it is all florescent, and it is SO hot and humid in there that my poor camera fogged right up… which is SO not good for it … but anything for some fun shots!
jordan 2010 | roseburg senior photographer
While Jordan’s session was very fun, I can’t think about it without getting just a tiny bit of a stomach ache. Why? you ask… well… Jordan chose to have me take her senior photos in and around her high school, Glide High School. Sounds great, right? Well it was! She is involved in athletics so we got some great photos in the girls locker room, then we had some fun on the school grounds, then off to the ball fields… great! Got some wonderful images as evidenced below…. I drive back to the studio and go to get my camera bag out of my trunk. My camera bag that held ALL of my memory cards, ALL of my lenses except the one on my camera, ALL of my batteries, ALL of my memory cards and my flash…. I tend to bring everything I could possibly need even though I shoot 90% of my senior sessions with just my 70-200mm lens. Annnyyyyyway….. like I said, I open the trunk to get the camera bag AND……..it is NOT there! gasp, heart attack, dollar signs dancing in my head……… I had taken it into the gym when we did the locker room shots in case I wanted to switch to a wider angle lens… OMG! That had been over two hours ago. I frantically called a friend of mine who lives in Glide, she had her daughter run to the school, love you Kirsten, Kirsten then had to track down the football coach to get a key to the gym since it had since been locked up……….. and low and behold my bag was right were I left it! God Bless Glide High School! So …. you can see why I break into a bit of a cold sweat when I think about Jordan’s session right?
My carelessness aside we got some great images and I know her mom will find one to hang next to the one I took of her brother last year!
