With that mix of indoor and outdoor activities, his senior portraits also reflected a balance of both indoor studio and outdoor photography. Having spent lots of his life in the Midwest, his family leaned into the outdoor setting of Garden of the Gods for all the mountain views and rock formations iconic to our area. The balance of simplicity and timelessness of studio portraits and awesome natural settings in the outdoor portraits gave his family great variety to enjoy for their albums and prints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Damien wraps up his final semester of high school, he&#8217;s planning to begin college studies with an emphasis on engineering.
