Derek – PHS 2014 Senior | {Puyallup Senior Photography}

A break in the spring rains and even some sunshine brought a fun session with a great young man, who will be graduating in a couple of months from Puyallup High School! Derek, is not only a handsome young man, but has plans and dreams for his future! I had not met Derek, nor his mom, Mary, before the session, but what a treat it was to spend some time with them on a lovely spring day! As you will see, Derek has a nice smile and he was easy to talk with and had a wonderful sense of humor and was willing to do just about anything for the photos. I would look at a tree and he’d ask if I wanted him to climb it…he was just that kind of guy! It’s refreshing to see such a confident and polite teenager, with ideas of what his future holds for him and I have no doubts that Derek will go places, do great things and make a good life for himself! His immediate future holds the finishing of high school and soccer for his team this spring and next fall, he’s looking at Western or WSU…either would be a great choice and I’m sure he’ll pick the school that will fit his needs and goals for the future!

That smile was great…so natural and relaxed…I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Derek during his session!Mom, aka, Mary, is obviously a wonderful person with such a neat son…I was happy to have a chance to talk with her and enjoyed hearing about her family!!Derek’s girlfriend, Nichole, joined us for some photos as well…wow, a beautiful and bright young lady…and the two of them are a such a great looking couple!
How could I resist not grabbing a couple of photos of Nichole…such a natural beauty with amazing skin and a smile that sparkles!Derek…I wish the very best for you and your future…good luck with your choice of colleges and have fun during your last couple of months of high school…these are times that you will look back on with great memories down the road!!
