Grad Photos

A few posts ago I mentioned that I only have one term of school left. It really hadn't hit home how close I was to finishing until we went for grad photos a few weeks ago. Wow. That was reality check, only 4 months left.
Aaron and I went for Grad photos together. I am done in April and he is done sometime during the summer, so our Grad photos will appear right next to each other on the composite board (aww..).

And now a warning to future graduates, know what you are getting in to when you go for your grad photos. I was busy, I was naive, I did not take time to think about the meaning of grad photos. I assumed they were cap and gown ( so what I wore and how I did my hair didn't matter it would be covered). I also assumed the only purpose was for the composite board, so they would be very small. Ha. I was right about the gown, it did cover my outfit, one point for me. Reminder don't wear anything with a collar. So I get into the studio and see these pictures of graduates all over the place, big pictures, pictures were you can see flaws (luckily I had retouched my makeup before I went), with girls whose hair was curled perfectly and I thought Oh No.

The photographer tells me about all the different poses that we would be doing, and I am realizing how very wrong I was. These pictures are mostly to buy for yourself, to put up large prints on the wall.  Opps.

In the end they turned out not too bad, considering.


Academy
Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!

  1. They turned out really well! That's nice that you got one together. I still can't believe you are graduating either! It makes you look even younger, haha.
