Damian – Pocatello, Idaho Senior Session

This senior session was such a blast to shoot for me. Over Labor Day Weekend my girls and I got to take an all-girls road trip. We visited my mom and hung out for a couple of days at Bear Lake. Of course we had to stop at Dee’s in Laketown so that we could get raspberry shakes from The Car Wash Ice Cream Shop. If any of you are ever in the area during the summertime, it is not to be missed. P.S. Two of my nephews work there…feel free to tell them hello from their auntie. And if you aren’t in the mood for ice cream, head inside of Dee’s and get a soda or a snack and say hi to my sister.

We headed on over to Pocatello, ID to meet up with our senior (also a nephew of mine), Damian, and his family. His parents are the proud owners of Grandma’s Pantry and he and his little brother, Jacob, help them out when they are not in school. The jam that these guys make is AMAZING!! You should definitely check them out at a local farmer’s market or craft fair. For those of us not so lucky to live in the area, we will have to stick to good ol’ internet shopping at www.grandmaspantrypocatello.com.

Damian is a senior at Pocatello High School, or as the locals call it, Poky High, home of the Indians. The class of 2021 will likely be the last class to graduate as Indians, as they are currently in the process of retiring the mascot and selecting a new one.

Damian has not decided on a college yet but is interested in mechanical engineering. This guy loves all things outdoors and is hoping to work his way through college at Sportsman’s Warehouse. He has been fishing and hunting since he was old enough to hold a pole in his hand. Because he loves to be outside so much, it was no surprise that he wanted to have his session on Scout Mountain…so away we headed in search or some great light…which, of course, we found.

I hope that he enjoyed this shoot as much as I did. At least he can say that he got to have his senior session done by his favorite aunt (don’t tell the other sister).
