Meet Caleb | Louisville High School | Class of 2022
Caleb is a Senior in the Class of 2022 at Louisville High School. His May Senior Portrait Session was extra special for so many reasons. His session was my first session for the Class of 2022, so I was beyond thrilled to work with Caleb. Adding to my excitement was knowing what a class act of a young man I was featuring. We started our session on the campus of the University of Mount Union which proved to be the perfect location to capture the variety we wanted. Caleb's casual and relaxed look was so fitting and made for fabulous portraits.
Including Caleb's letterman's jacket was important because he is an accomplished contributor on both the football and baseball teams. Along with his dedication to high school football and baseball, he plays travel basketball, YMCA Basketball, is on Student Council, in Spanish Club, National Honors Society and church groups.
When Caleb is not busy with the organized groups. he enjoys fishing and hunting. He is also a big Ohio State football fan and a fan of the Cleveland Browns. Caleb's friends describe him as smart, loyal and relaxed. What a great combination of attributes.
We had to be careful with our time, because we had two other stops to make. We left Mount Union and headed to the Louisville High School's Field of Dreams to capture his baseball portraits. I knew that baseball was really important to Caleb, so we dedicated enough time to this location to create some real treasures. As a pitcher, the mound is a meaningful spot. How fortunate to get the beautiful sky as a backdrop.
Along with baseball as a favorite thing, Caleb loves eating steak and going to Olive Garden. His favorite vacation spot is Hilton Head Island and likes watching the show Outer Banks.
After high school, Caleb plans to go to college to study engineering and would also like to play baseball. He knows that he is going to miss seeing his friends and teachers everyday, but will be happy to get away from high school exams.
I loved the series of portraits we created in the dugout like you see below. The directional light and story we can tell is priceless.
We finished at the baseball field and headed to our last location, the Louisville High School Football Stadium. This is another place of importance for Caleb, so these were some cherished portraits, as well.
Bringing the letterman's jacket back out for the stadium portraits seemed appropriate and I love this casual shot with the press box in the background.
What did Caleb have to say about his senior portrait session?
"I liked that we got to go to a variety of locations and that she had great ideas for my portrait session along with ideas we came up with, as well. I really liked the pictures that were sports related. I took quite a few good pictures on the baseball and football fields. The lighting and scenery that were in the pictures were perfect. She really did a good job of capturing the things that were most important to me during high school. I would tell other seniors to plan ahead of time outfits and ideas for pictures and to plan on a few hours for the portrait session."
Caleb, you certainly started my 2022 senior season off with a win! You were so fabulous and made it fun for me. Your talents and character are really something special. I can't wait to see how you share your gifts.
