The brief

Graduation photos that feel like the day did: proud, joyful, and impossible to stand still through.

The approach

Digital for the movement, 35mm film for the quieter moments. Warm walls at golden hour, a long staircase, and a few frames after dark.

The wall

Golden hour and a stole that would not sit still

On film

The stairs, the grass, and the dark

Reflections

The result

A gallery on film and digital that moves the way the day felt.
