Ashley’s Senior Session (2011 Alta High School)

TravisJ — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 05:29:33 +0000

I love Ashley’s style. After going through the outfits she brought, I was not surprised when she said she wanted to pursue fashion. We talked a little bit about the need to follow your passion and that once you find something you love you should go for it. I think she was a little surprised when she learned that although I took many classes in photography, I got a degree in English. I’ve always loved photography but wasn’t sure what I could do with that. Now that I think about it, I don’t know what I would do with a degree in English.

Good luck, Ashley, with whatever you decide to do. I know you’ll do great.

Here is another post before I go to bed. Meet Hayden, she is a senior at Hillcrest High and pursuing fashion. I really love taking senior portraits. Seniors have so much attitude that makes these pictures interesting and stand out. Hayden is no exception.

Kent 2011 Lone Peak Senior

TravisJ — Fri, 20 May 2011 05:29:25 +0000

I’m so far behind on my blogging, so get ready for a whole bunch of High School Seniors and Engagement sessions.
Here are just a few of my favorites from Kent’s Senior Session.

Hillcrest Varsity Cheer

TravisJ — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 06:10:40 +0000

A few months ago I was approached by a mother from the Hillcrest Varsity Cheer Team. She was excited about the senior pictures I had just taken of her daughter and was wondering if I would be willing to do a session with the whole squad.
Senior portraits are some of the funnest pictures to take. Kids that age have so much attitude and are usually very excited to get pictures of their fun personalities. So it was a no brainer to do a session with twelve hyper cheerleaders. I am very happy with how well the pictures turned out. Feel free to check out my FB page to see even more.

Cole’s Senior Portraits

TravisJ — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 04:54:50 +0000

As you can imagine things have been crazy lately, with a new baby and a very busy spring and summer so far.
Here is one of the senior sessions that I did a little while back but forgot to blog. Cole, like most guys, didn’t love the idea of having his picture taken but we were able to have fun with it and get some really nice shots.

Senior Season

TravisJ — Thu, 27 May 2010 05:40:57 +0000

Wow. Senior Season is on and in full force. I have been so busy shooting and editing that I can’t remember the last time I got a full nights sleep. Here is just one of the recent seniors and for sure one of my favorites. These girls had so much fun during this shoot, and we got so many great shots, that I had a really hard time narrowing down which pictures to show.

Alishea Senior Portraits (Alta High)

TravisJ — Mon, 03 May 2010 17:35:26 +0000

I am very excited to post these senior pictures. Alishea is a beautiful senior from Alta High and it was a lot of fun to spend and evening capturing her personality. Alishea’s session started off really well and we got some great shots right away. We then moved to a new location where she asked to change outfits. I’m a big supporter of variety in wardrobe but I didn’t expect the dancing shoes. The sun was going down so I was very glad that I brought some of my lighting just in case. Believe it or not I’m not a dancer so I had to rely heavily on her for poses. She asked if she should do some of her tricks. I just laughed because it sounded like she was on a skateboard and was going to do a kickflip or something. I said of course and was amazed by her talent. Another great part was listening to her little sister say, “SICK! She is sooo flexible.” These fun shots prove again that when booking a portrait session you should not be afraid to use your talent as a prop. Thanks again Alishea.

Angies Girls – SLC Senior Photographer

TravisJ — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:43:49 +0000

These girls are awesome. Not only are they sisters, but after spending some time taking their pictures, I could tell they are also best friends. I really enjoy shooting this age group. If you want a Best Friends shoot I have some fun ideas for you, so give me a call.

Caitlin Senior & Family {Senior and Family Photographer Travis J Photography}

TravisJ — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 19:20:59 +0000

It’s rare to find a family of older kids, that are still willing to get close and hug for photos. You could tell that these guys were not just family but also good friends. Caitlin, the high school senior, was a natural in front of the camera. She claims it’s because she is in a photography class and because she is a huge fan of the TV show America’s Next Top Model. Either way she was a lot of fun.
