Default Attn: High school or college grads that got professional pictures taken...holla

Hi.


So I am getting ready to graduate and my mom want pictures of the first person on her side of the family to graduate college :run: Anyway, I took some pictures with a photographer that came by the campus. I saw the proofs and didnt like them for whatever reasons. The prints from them cost an assload also.

So I have kinda decided not to buy from them. I am guessing that I can just go to any studio with my cap and gown on and they can take pics for me, correct? The only downside is that I wont have the school's seal on the background. :dunno:

Has anyone done this?

Dude... Next month, the weekend of the 17th I'll be in Palo Alto and the weekend of the 23rd in San Francisco, taking pictures at a Debutante Balls. If you want, bring your cap and gown, and I'll take pics with the umbrella setup and all. I can later change the background to whatever you want in photoshop. Free pics, and you can hang out and help me take pictures of 18 year-old rich girls.

I'll remind you closer to the date. I'm kidding about you having to help. I could just use you as the test shot person and you'd have some really good shots. You could even bring your family. You got it like that. h:
If you want, pm me your email address, and I'll send you some samples.

For my master's photos, my mom took me down to JC Penny's or someplace like that to get photographed.
