The "Not-So-Senior" Senior Pictures

Why "not-so-senior"? When I go back and look at my senior pictures now they strike me as kinda odd. I'm sitting in a photographer's studio and the backdrop is a barn scene. I'm even leaning on a bail of hay. Hmmmm... Did I grow up on a farm? Nope. Am I a cowboy? Definitely not. So what am I doing in this scene? Dunno. You won't see any studio backdrops here. Just real scenes and natural poses. And even some of those artsy-fartsy layered pics I'm so fond of. So enjoy poking through my idea of what a senior picture should look like.


Below is a progression of three shots with varying levels of photoshop "magic" applied. Which is your favorite?






And below are some layered shots. I think it adds a cool atmosphere to some photos - they look more like photo art to me.
