taking pictures of my sister’s prom was a bit nostalgic. seeing the high school seniors dressed up, feeling like they’re on top of the world, was a jarring contradiction with the college life mentality. nevertheless, I was determined to make sure my sister had nice prom photos. (as an extra bonus throwback, their dress colors coincided well with our high school’s mascot, the patriots.)
prom in SoCal includes an abundance of photos taken at the beach. though the weather was hot and perhaps a bit too sunny and I was rushing from location to location, seeing old friends in the place I was last year was worth more than the money.
there’s something exciting about getting dressed up and having nice photos and going to a dance with a guy. it’s a very high-school thought sure, but in a way, I miss that part of my life. taking pictures of prom for the first time was challenging, but definitely a good experience and a walk down memory lane.
