Brooklyn — Apollo-Ridge High School Senior Portraits, IUP and Indiana, PA

Posted on by Emily Smith in Blog, Senior Portraits

Brooklyn’s vibe was urban, but not city….garden, but not woods…She didn’t have a specific place in mind…say less, Queen.

I picked out 3 locations at IUP and 2 locations in downtown Indiana that would give Brooklyn the vibe she was going for, as well as provide a lot of variety without driving all over the place.

We also timed out the session to happen when the string lights turned on for the night in the alley in downtown Indiana. Sure, we could over-power the sun with a monolight and get a very similar look during the day, but the lights aren’t on during the day. Timing was key! I’d say we nailed it!
