When I was in high school I had several friends who loved acting in this theatre, and they put in many hours of practice on this stage. I never liked being in the spotlight, so I was usually just found in the audience cheering them on. :) But I know from my friends’ experiences that this space holds a special place in the hearts of those who have put in the work here, and it was no different for Kara. She has been a part of several productions at the Capitol Theatre, so when we discussed what locations she would like to use for her senior session, this was top of her list.
We had a lovely day for her senior portraits, with blue skies and lots of sunshine. Because it was top of Kara’s list, we started at the theatre first and were able to take some pictures on and off the stage, as well as outside the theatre. Once we got what we needed there, we walked around downtown Union City for a few photos with the brick and concrete backgrounds, before heading to a more natural location. I love that we were able to achieve a variety of looks for Kara, and that we were able to incorporate both sentimental places and things as well as more simple locations that made her the focus. :) Such a fun session to be a part of, and such a sweet, beautiful young lady to work with!
Congratulations on your upcoming graduation Kara!
