Sophie: Senior Portraits
Back in 2018, I was in a production of Beauty and the Beast at the Redlands Bowl. There are always a lot of people in Redlands Bowl shows. There’s no other theater experience like it so many local thespians audition for the chance to perform on that historic stage. A lot of high schoolers usually end up in the cast, definitely keeping us oldies young at heart. Watching Sophie in rehearsals, I knew she had “it”. Anyone who attends theater knows when someone has “it”. Star power, stage presence, that certain something. So let me tell you, I was THRILLED when Sophie asked me to do her senior portraits. And boy did she deliver! She wanted a mix of old Hollywood glam and colorful vintage. With the additions of a friend’s classic car and a Palm Springs backdrop, I’d say we did a bang-up job of it! Sophie, congratulations on your high school graduation. I know you’re destined for amazing things!
