A coworker recently asked me to take some senior photos for her daughter. I've shot lots of photos but had never done senior portraits before. Overall I was pretty pleased the the results. Here are a few personal favorites. All shot with 1Ds Mark II and 85mm f/1.8.

Nice work, the DOF in #1 really sets that one apart.

Canon 60D, Gripped, a bunch of consumer glass, and a really cheap tripod.....
