Celebration Day 2010.

I had the pleasure of photographing the year 12’s (seniors..for all you Americans out there) last day at school on Friday.

It was such an emotional but amazing day, and i was so lucky to be able to capture most of it. There is no way i could share all of it, (as all of it is actually 300 photos) but I’ll share a bit.

I will miss these girls.

PS – I am sincerely sorry for my lack of blogging as of late. I’ve been so busy that it is actually running me down, and I’ve been back and forth between the doctors having tests. Turns out I’m actually severely anaemic. For anyone out there who has it, you know what I’m talking about. You just feel terrible, all the time. So i am so sorry to all who still read and comment…I adore you. And i promise, I’m trying to get back to a routine of this :)

  1. I am quite sure that you are the most amazing sixteen year old girl on this planet. K, you have brought me to tears with these photographs..they are so raw! And honey, I am sorry about your anemia, it's terrible, I had it way long long ago and you feel rotten, don't you?
    Loves and hugs to you sweet girl,

  2. Oh, dearest, you are so amazing.
    The Year 12s at my school just had their last day this Thursday.. it was so emotional. Is it a national thing for Year 12s to finish in the same week?
    And I can completely sympathize with your having anemia; some-days I just want to curl up in bed, I am so, so tired and my limbs are not strong enough to carry me.
    Stay strong, beautiful girl. xxx

  3. It's SO amazing what you do with the photos that you take that it's almost incredible that you're only 16!! You really rock, you know that? You really do. =)

    Oh, K, I hope you're prescribed something that will help you with your anemia. I was slightly anemic when I was younger and I was given iron supplements and prescribed a diet of foods rich in iron and other "healthy" stuff. Keep well.

  4. Those were such amazing photos, Katherine! The expressions on the girls' faces almost brought me to tears--they look as though they expect to never see each other again. You captured the emotion brilliantly.

    I'm so sorry that you have anemia. I'll be praying for your healing.

    Love,

  12. It really is amazing what a talented photographer you are...I am not into photographing people like you do, mostly I like scenery and abstract.
    Probably my main reason is that I would never be able to do it as well as you, so I don't even try.

  20. Amazing pictures looks like a fun day.
    Im Anemic too and totally know how you feel (just wish hubby would). I read your comments and most people talk as if it's something that goes away (if it does clue me in) I have had this since before I can remember iron tablets and supplaments didn't work to well for me but hopefully for you. I am a severe anemic to the point labour ment having blood on stand by for a transfussion so please don't let me worry you. just want you to know your not alone

  21. Katherine...you got it SO right with these shots. I have been thru several of these events now with my children. They are so emotional...highs and lows and you caught the best of it in these images. Well done.

    Take care of yourself. I have been there with the same thing and it can wipe you out. Iron..iron and more iron...listen to your Dr. and Mom...:))

  28. Those were really heart tugging; it is hard to have all your friends go in all different directions. But they were beautiful as well. :')
