Ok, so this was part of this boys senior portrait shoot. He was a starting wr for his High School football team. We have PLENTY of him playing. Just something that we tried after seeing it in a magazine.. Something we have been wanting to do for over a year now! What do you think? The final version does have his name and Class of 2010 on the bottom, but didn't want to put that on on here.

Love the photo. But the frame is just clicking for me, how about just a vignette, wither soft or maybe an all black or white out?

Great portrait overall

I do want to add that this was taken outside, not in studio. Just with ex 580 flash on top of camera. We were able to fund one small patch of shade from a sponsor sign on the football field at the time. I used the flash mainly to get that shadow on his face from the face mask.

Thanks Dave.. He did like it.. It is the only picture he has seen so far from his senior shoot. I got so excited I couldn't wait for him to see it.
