Senior Portraits

Here is a black and white image from a session a few days ago (the day before the recent Louisville flooding). I will be posting more images on my website. I like overlaying activities plus a variety of poses. This young man is a lacrosse player and we got some really good shots in uniform.
I am doing more and more photography in the Louisville area, which makes sense -- I live here.
To go directly to my website go to the bottom of my homepage and type in bob helvey in the Photo Shelter search area.

It was remarkable being with service minded people observing the ministries of Henderson Settlement (UMC affiliated) in an under served community.
