High School graduations are always fun and interesting events to document. The emotion is so raw and full of excitement I sometimes find it hard to not get caught up in the moment myself as I reflect back on days long past.
Last week I had the privilege of making images at 5 graduations!! Jeffco Public Schools hired me for 4 graduations around the Denver area and the Longmont Times-Call had me head over to Erie High School. I don’t remember much about my high school graduation and sadly I doubt these graduates will appreciate the time and effort put into the day but now as an observer, with over 10 years between my green cap and gown, I see the day through much clearer eyes.
Even though the graduates are being released into the “Real World” as so-called adults they are still in many ways young, rambunctious, kids willing to act like fools and put on a good show for the crowd. This recipe equals fun photos every time.
