Then with another upcoming event I was asked to make a calendar for fundraising purposes. Now I could further practice and polish skills, define with editing a theme to the calendar, capture the grandness.
I jumped out of bed each day with the thought of doing what I love - the snapping, the editing, the organizing.
When I thought the job couldn't get any better,
I was asked to photograph the Class of 2012 who were soon to graduate
and head out in the world solo.
All three of these requests were heaven sent,
But this request best defined why I love photography -

A Yearbook for a Class of 5!
They dressed up in their finest.
They hammed it up.
They laughed and joked.
One said, "it was dumb",
(but I don't think he really meant it)
They enjoyed being made a fuss over.
Without suggestion, as they sat at the piano for the class shot,
hands were rested on shoulders and they spontaneously huddled in a group,
a family of sorts.
And in the end, a yearbook was made -
elegant and bound in leather -
A yearbook that this amazing group of strong, brave, young graduates well deserve -
A keepsake for the hardships, the travails, the joys of adolescence.
Ladies and Gentlemen -
The Class of 2012
