 We had a photo-shoot based on Amelia Earhart. I was so thankful to be able to shoot at a small, local airport with an amazing high school senior. Her dad owns the plane in the background.....the only thing missing is the goggles.

The goggles would have taken it over the top. Beautiful image!

A powerful looking portrait. Her eyes grabbed me the moment the pic came up.

This is an absolutely stunning shot. I can't put my finger on what it is that I like so much. Nice processing and the DOF is great. 10

I don't know who Amelia might have been but I sure would have wanted her on my side. I love the attitude and emotion you've captured here. Great work! ... Amelia Earhart? Watch the smoothing ... almost too much.

A stiking pose with direct eye contact makes this a memorable capture.
Love the sepia tones and hint of the background. Well done!
