Summer & Thomas Graduation Portrait Session

Using a Canon EOS R6 paired with a 70–200mm lens for select images, I photographed this graduation portrait session in anticipation of May 2026 commencement at the University of South Carolina. My goal was to capture both the significance of the milestone and the personal connection between the subjects through natural, candid portraiture. One of the aspects I value most about photography is its ability to preserve meaningful relationships and moments, making this project especially rewarding as it allowed me to document one of my closest friends, Summer, during an important chapter of her life.
