Intimate Portraiture

Every time I get an assignment for Portraiture class I get really excited because I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHING PEOPLE! This assignment was a lot of fun because I had to photograph people who were close to me and demonstrate our relationship through the photo somehow. I did a series that was a bit playful because my relationship with these people is fun, loving, and filled with all sorts of adventures.
Mike Favata. We always joke and say we're married. We ALWAYS bake together, wether it be cupcakes, cakes, and now our latest improvement PIES! It's always a bunch of fun baking together and it is a huge part of our friendship so of course when photographing him I chose to use his kitchen and we actually ended up baking a cake. It was delicious.

Kenny is one of my absolute best friends, ever. Him and I are always up for adventures when we are together and are always partaking in some form of crazy shenanigans. On this adventure we found a snow tunnel and of course we had to climb into it.

This is my dad Henry. He used to be a very shy man until recently, but he has always been a bit of a goofball, hum wonder where I get it from. He didn't really want me to photograph him while he was looking at the camera, but he was a good sport none the less. Poker is one of his favorite things ever and he is always trying to teach me how to play, but I'd rather stick to board games :P

This cutie pie is Gavin. He is my cousin Stephanie's 6 month old son. My family is extremely close, so we just say he is my nephew and I'm his Auntie CC (Cousin Casey).  I think he is absolutely adorable, and until he came around I was the baby of the family, so it is nice to be able to pass the torch down to him.

This is my cousin Doug with baby Gavin.  Doug is my older brother Andrew's age and he lived right down the street while we were growing up, so he was always more of another older brother than a cousin to me. To Gavin he is known as Uncle Dunkle, too funny.

 And of course I just can't resist from posting a few more pictures of that sweetheart Gavin!
