McIntosh Art Co. | Backyard Prom | Seattle, Washington | August 2020

For the Class of 2020, everything was cancelled. Prom, graduation, life. All of it. I can’t imagine having to have my Senior year in quarantine. So, this brilliant mama came up with the idea to throw a Backyard Prom with her son, his girlfriend, her identical twin sister an her boyfriend. The entire evening was so much fun and I love the way this family put in a lot of effort to make their kids have a memorable night, despite such a terrible last few months. The couples started with outdoor dining at a fancy Italian resturant and then traveled back to the house to celebrate with homemade desserts from their professional chef daughter to s’mores and sparkling cider by Snoop Dogg ( 😉 ), this night packed all the ingredients for awesomeness. The backyard was decorated with flowers and string lights. And their cat was a frequent visitor. I loved how these portraits turned out and the challenge the dark night presented for me. Enjoy!
