Meet Jimmy, one of my Class of 2024 high school seniors.

Jimmy graduated from Webster Schroeder High School and plans to attend St. John Fisher College in Rochester for Criminal Justice. He hopes to become a lawyer in the future.

We had a terrific time photographing his senior portraits in the city of Rochester around the Memorial Art Gallery as well as some out-of-the-way graffiti art spots. 

Jimmy has a great sense of humor, is kind and lively. Both of his parents came along for the session and they kept me in stitches for much of it.

I want to thank Jimmy and his family for hiring me to photograph, not only his senior pictures, but more recently, his family portraits. It was a pleasure working with them to create some beautiful art to treasure for many years to come.

All my best for your future!

Make sure to leave Jimmy a note of congratulations below.

A graduate of Webster Thomas High School's Class of 2023, meet Bryce!

This young man has so many great things going for him, personality, looks, intelligence and some mad skills on the soccer field! I was looking forward to photographing him during one of his game, but unfortunately, an injury kept him out for a few games so senior night (which I had the fun opportunity of photographing) was a no go. I did get a fun shot of his family with a stand-in for mom as she was away on business. Great legs mom!!

Bryce is an AP student and received the President's Scholarship for Excellence this year. He plans to attend Kent State University in Ohio and study Business Management and Entrepreneurship while playing soccer for the Golden Eagles.

For his senior portrait session, Bryce and his parents chose the Webster Arboretum for its beauty as well as the memories having spent so much time there on the soccer fields. He was a natural with that killer smile and ease. We had a nice time with great weather and were all pleased with the results.

I want to thank both his parents and Bryce for choosing Hayes Photography and wish him all the best at Kent State and beyond in whatever he chooses to do. Also, shout out to younger brother Quinn. I heard you passed the Regents Geometry exam...way to go!!!

Take a sec and leave this terrific guy a word of congrats and thanks for visiting the blog.
