Celebrity Senior Portraits - West Richland, WA

The other day, I had the honor of photographing a very special and famous little girl.  Her name is Liz Evett and she’s famous for being brave and for accomplishing more in her young life than many (check here, here, and here).  She recently created a bucket list, which contains things she wants to do before she kicks the bucket, and although a senior portrait session wasn’t a specific item on her list, I heard it was something that she wanted.  So, through the local Soroptomist group, we made it happen.  She’s the sweetest thing ever.  Oh, and she happens to love all things Asian.  Liz, did I happen to mention that I’m Chinese?

Liz with me, her mom, and her dad.  She’s holding a scroll from China on which is written the Bible passage, 2Peter 1:5-7.  The passage encourages us to have faith and to supplement that faith with virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, and LOVE.  Liz is a great example for us.

God bless you, Liz.  I had a great time and you look mah-velous.  You’re a real natural!

    Seriously nice job on these, Allan. That first image is simply stunning!

    I love the shot with her mom….sweet light, and a sweet relationship. I’m sure they’ll treasure these.

    Liz was an extraordinary young woman. She will be missed by so many people. Liz left this world this morning, December 29, 2006. Please remember her family in your prayers.
