Travis and a Guitar


I did some senior pictures with Travis.  He wanted something low-key.  Not really big into glossy, staged shots.  He plays guitar, so he brought it along.  We found a good location.  And then he just played.

Sometimes all the elements come together and something magical happens.  Here, it was the red shirt and how perfect it seemed against the blue doorway.  And how desolate the street was, and how the sky darkened as the sun set, with blues and grays and pale reds.

And the music.  That was really majgical.  Travis played this great guitar, with a technique that reminded me some of the guitar players I heard in Spain.

A great shoot.  Here are some pictures.
