Liv


Liv just graduated from high school.  She is headed to Florida in the fall to study marine biology 
in college, but she is realistic and knows that plans might change when she gets there.

Liv played four years of lacrosse in high school.
She expected to hate it, but found that she loves lacrosse.
(There is a lesson in that about willingness to try new things, isn't there?)

Note to self:  Next time you ask someone to step off the main street to avoid
all of the pedestrians walking into the shot, be sure there are no dumpsters in the background.

    She has a pretty smile! Yep, it's very good advice to try new things... but sometimes very hard.

    Another beautiful subject, Jack! And I wouldn't have noticed the dumpsters if you hadn't pointed them out. :)

    My niece is getting her Ph.D. in marine biology. It is a very important field, especially in view of what we are doing to upset the balance of the ecosystems in the ocean.

    She is a very photogenic girl. Nice portrait, although a parking lot probably isn't the best place to shoot at.

    She is so lovely! IMHO immobile and out-of-focus dumpsters are better than any closer walk-in!

    Agree about the dumpsters, but otherwise this is a top-notch portrait! And I agree with Sharon, Liv really does brighten up any background. Wouldn't have noticed the dumpsters if you hadn't pointed them out :D

    Yes, another beauty graces your blog. And I'm guessing there was enough gorgeousness in your line of sight that everything else faded out of view.

    Sorry, I wasn't looking at the background!

    Well, not all snapshots are "perfect" but Liv certainly has a perfect smile…a very good portrait of a lovely young woman.
