Senior guys can rock beach portraits in North Carolina for sure!
Senior pictures aren't just for girls at the beach. Guys can certainly rock the shots too!
I was honored to be able to create these portraits of my "nephew" while we were at Ocean Isle Beach, NC this past week. I've known Matthew since he was an infant and his Mama since high school. Friendships like that don't come around very often, and when they do you take hold and never let go! His mama is my sister from another mister for sure!
Matthew wasn't sure what he wanted for his senior portraits other than he knew he really was doing them to make his mom happy. (Smart boy!) given the choice of doing them in his hometown of North Canton, Ohio, or while on vacation in North Carolina, he chose the later.
Inland waterway pictures at Ocean Isle Beach, NC
I love to create a variety of images with every senior session. Beach pictures are no different. We began Matthew's portraits at the west end of the island with the waterway as a backdrop. This gave us a some greenery, and a street vibe!
Beach portraits in the dunes at Ocean Isle Beach, NC
With the sun sneaking behind the clouds, lighting was perfect for a quick stop for some quintessential beachy dune portraits. Matthew wasn't too keen on sitting in the sand, but I promised him I'd make sure there were no creepy crabs or bugs around. And we created these portraits pretty quick to avoid people heading to the beach for their evening visit!
Nature Boardwalk Portraits in North Carolina
Did you know that Ocean Isle Beach has a nature trail? We located this cute boardwalk on the east side of the island. It apparently goes back quite a ways, but we only used it for it's old wooden planks and green backdrop for yet another look.
Beachy Senior Pictures for the Win!
Our last stop during Matthew's session was the newly created jetty at the end of the island. I love how these rocks gave variety to his portrait collection. The textures were just perfect to compliment his look. What do you think? Did Matthew make the right call on selecting North Carolina for some destination senior portraits?
