Lucky 13!

Today, I photographed lucky number thirteen! The 13th graduation that is and thank goodness for Keenan Humble to mix things up a bit. Keenan, a member of the graduating class at Nathan Hale Ray High School pulled a stunt that most school administrators would discourage and consider mischevious.

Let me tell you just what happened. After receiving his diploma, Keenan fell flat on his face and as he stood back on his feet he ripped off his gown. He was wearing a girls' bikini top and what looked like a skirt, the type a cheerleader might wear.

When I saw him go down, it was pretty obvious there was more to come. The fall was just a little too poetic!

I managed to grab a few shots and of course everything was for the most part a blur. I was so focused on getting the shot, I don't even remember hearing the crowds' reaction.

As I studied the pictures more closely, I noticed a few of the administrators on stage were even sporting smiles.

I think Keenan put a lot of thought into what he was going to do and it will certainly be one of my more memorable graduations I had to photograph in a long time!

This is Keenan within minutes after receiving his diploma. Who would be the wiser.

Good luck Keenan, you made my day!
