Today I had three shoots at the homes of 5 Young Marines. I think it is important to show the personal and family life of these teens/kids as well as the training in the actual program. The first one is of two brothers whose father had two tours in Iraq. The second and third ones are of a brother and sister whose eldest sibling is in the navy. The fourth one is of an eight year old, Connor, and his parents. The posed portrait has never been my strength, but I feel I am getting better at it and start to enjoy it more, especially as I am more influenced by artists such as Larry Sultan and Reneke Dijkstra.
