Joel’s heart belongs on the football field, so we made sure his senior portraits reflected exactly where he feels most at home. We spent time on the field and in the bleachers, capturing him in his jersey to commemorate his high school career.

His mom also wanted to make sure we captured the beauty of the season with some fall foliage in the background. To get those "nicer," non-football related portraits, we headed over to a park in his hometown of Collinsville, IL. The vibrant autumn leaves provided a perfect, classic backdrop that contrasted beautifully with his athletic shots. It was a session that truly offered the best of both worlds. Check out all the images we captured of Joel below!
