Jason Class of 2020 | Anjeanette Photography Senior Anthem, Peoria, North Phoenix Arizona
/
It’s gallery delivery day! As Jason’s mom said I was absolutely teasing them with sneak peeks on Instagram of Jason’s senior picture session- I am so excited about how great Jason did and some of the images captured for him! We had a warm but gorgeous Arizona day last week when we finally got o to have Jason's rescheduled senior portrait session. Starting at the ASU Grant street studios and ending at Papago, I got to know this dynamic senior and his family amidst the reopening of our city and state. Jason impressed me with natural smiles and ease in 100+ temps- never let em see you sweat! While Jason did a fantastic job for his portrait session we were all the most excited to get to the track for some sport action shots of Jason biking! Jason's ride looks like a mountain bike with killer suspension, giant tires, and the ability to dirt jump and basically drop off of ...MOUNTAINS! Crazy being right next to a bike falling that far and fast when it whooshes past. The course he uses has trails with tight curves, rough and smooth transitions in terrain, and multiple hard-packed dirt ramps that he propels over to fly through the sky- all overlooking the skyline of Phoenix. Luckily for me, we got a fantastic sunset at the end of his session so I was able to get a variety of sky colours as he shot off of hills and ledges! Congratulations Jason, on your accomplishments graduating from high school and on finding something you love like biking- doing what you love is one of the greatest gifts. It's obvious how much time, hard work training, and effort you put into making soaring through the air look effortless. Keep that passion for life wherever you go on this adventure of life!
With the stay at home order lifted in Arizona, hopefully, we reduced the curve to allow for better care for all and are all better equipped to fight this pandemic and win....the news can be scary and overwhelming, but I am constantly uplifted by stories of people helping each other, lifting each other up, and the essential workers from health care and first responders to grocery employees who are saving lives! In all the shuffle to prepare and social distance, the Class of 2020 experienced a tremendous loss. Health and safety are paramount- but the memories of a senior year lost have also been traumatic. Senior year memories are something many folks carry with them their whole lifetime. These seniors won’t have all of them. They shouldn’t have to lose all of their senior year experiences - I am so thankful that with a long lens outside I am able to provide one important of the big year- senior pictures 🧡 Stay safe 2020- you matter no matter what has happened. Your achievements have NOT changed just because the circumstances around them have!
