Meet Cole, a Senior here in Southern Illinois! I met his mom while working in the operating room in Mt. Vernon, Illinois… what a great person she is!
She asked me to take her sons senior photos and of course I said yes!
Cole was also getting ready for his Senior Prom that was to be held the same evening. So we had to get a few shots of him in his tux as well!
Did I mention how much it rained the day of his session? Oh not yet? Well… it did. Like, A LOT! It was a challenge to find the right places to take his senior photos without us (and his mom) getting SOAKED… but I accepted the challenge with the thought that I would NOT let him down, and I was excited for the locations I chose and the outcome of his session!
He was killing it with that smile!
He was super excited to add his car into a few shots. The rain actually worked in my favor and made his car super shiny!

I feel that black and white looks great on almost every guy… for real! This photo was taken at our meeting spot @Rail Coffee Room here in Centralia, IL.

So for this shot, which do you prefer? The COLOR OR BLACK AND WHITE?!?!
