Deep Ellum has some really interesting and cool backdrops, they are constantly changing and you don’t always know what you’ll see when you get there. When I saw the b&w striped wall, I knew we had to use it. Donald Duck was just a bonus!

Meet this stunning Senior!!! I had taken her homecoming photos the year before, it was a 20 min session close to where she lived. But for her senior photos, I had told her that we would not stay local and I was going to take her somewhere with an edgy vibe, kinda like her 🙂
We headed Downtown thanksgiving week. We got lucky, Deep Ellum was surprisingly empty and we were able to use whatever backdrop we wanted. The game plan was to walk around, have her choose whatever graffiti/wall she liked and smile. And wow her smile…!
Before the shoot day, I ask the clients a range of questions, from what the session objective is, are the kids shy or outgoing, what is the style of house etc. We then come up with a couple of location options. Deep Ellum was perfect for this family. We needed something bright and bold that was able to compliment their personality. Flowers in fields just didn’t seem right 🙂
