Xicali Studios
Leslie's theme for her 15 was "rave" and she asked for something that reflected that. I showed her some ideas from photography sites and she liked this. I had fun dripping the paint on her in the parking lot and she walked out of the store looking just like this. These shots, taken about two weeks before her day, were the first time I saw her smile.

Taken in studio with a black backdrop, a "hot" light behind her to light up her hair, another flash to light her up from up front. I instructed her to make "every Facebook face you know how to do".

I asked her to pose, she just had fun with it after a while.
