There was a time when I’d make occasional visits to the Big Island<\/a>, and I’d sometimes fill my time shooting some portraits. I happened to get acquainted with Leina prior to my visit in October of 2007, and she was interested in doing a senior portrait session. I came up with an idea to shoot in her garage, but shortly before my arrival at her home in Hilo<\/a>, I was informed that the conditions weren’t ideal. So, we had to come up with another plan.<\/p>\n

We did a quick brainstorm at her house while it was raining outside (it’s Hilo<\/a>, after all, and that was part of the reason the garage appealed to me), and I eventually came up with the idea to do some shooting at a local junkyard. Leina was also an avid hobbyist in photography, and I told her to bring some of her toy cameras. She’s quite an artist, actually; after graduation, Leina attended art school in San Francisco<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Leina was a good sport. While the skies cleared, it was really humid. And I got mauled by mosquitoes big time. In the end, it was all worth it, though.<\/p>\n

\"Senior<\/p>\n

What’s next?<\/p>\n
