Prom Season!

I have decided that high school proms are starting to be more like weddings. They certainly cost almost as much! Dresses that only little girls could dream of complete with the best transportation possible... I had a grad arrive to the grand march in a helicopter!! Certainly a once in a lifetime photography opportunity. And at first feelings of amazement at the amount of hoopla surrounding this event put me a little off my game.

Why couldn't it have been so fun when I graduated? Well, for one, there were over 450in my graduating class. It would have taken forever to parade through one at a time, each grad getting the attention they deserve.There is certainly an advantage in attending a small school. I already have big plans for photographing the event next year... hmmm... what can outdo a helicopter? See how easy it is to fall prey to thought of one-up-manship??

A special thank you the Upper Mirimichi Regional High School, the O'Hara and Hayes families in Stanley and the Stanley High School Principal for their support.
