High School Dances

Last month I had a group of my students ask if I would take their Prom pictures. I guess the photos cost a ton at the dance and we all know that those dance photos can be kind of lame.
So, this group of kids offered to pay me to take their photos instead. It ended up being a much better deal for them cost wise and they had a heck of a lot more fun. We shot photos for about an hour and a half and this was a pretty unique group so they helped make it interesting and fun for me too.
Well ever since then I've been getting asked to take photos for groups of kids for all the upcoming dances, and even a few request for next year. It's actually turning out to be a pretty good deal for me and the kids I'm taking photos for. They get more photos, and better ones if I say so myself, than they would at the dance. And I make a few bucks on the side.
So here are a few of the photos we've been taking for the dances.
