Every year, I cover at least one local graduation for the Portland Tribune. This year’s was Tualatin High’s ceremony held at the Portland’s Veteran’s Memorial Coliseum in the Rose Garden area.
Also every year, I seem to forget how fun these are to shoot! As boring as they might be to attend sometimes (mine sure was), being backstage with the kids and seeing the emotions as they come out to a big crowd, in a beautiful arena, to get their hard-earned diplomas. It’s really a cool experience to photograph.
Here’s a link to the gallery as it appeared on the Tualatin Times’ site, and you can view the photos here after the jump.
