These are some of the boys I teach in Sunday School at church. The first two are in the mission field now and the last one pictured is about to turn in his paperwork to become a missionary.
For the class I teach (there are about 6 in there from 16-18, only one girl), I’ve offered to take their senior or missionary pictures. For payment, I ask that they serve an honorable mission (or if they’re not going on a mission, then I just want them to be good kids).
The first 2 boys turned in their own snapshots with their paperwork (I was out of town) and I took these afterwards for their plaque that’s on display at the church while they’re gone for 2 years.
But for this one I took the picture to turn in. The first was our favorite but you gotta turn in a smiling picture so we used the 2nd one.
I wasn’t looking forward to how the picture would turn out because I thought it’d end up stale. But I think we did alright (my favorite is the 2nd but he’ll turn in the first).

I don’t know if I can put my comments here… So you just call me later. Actually, I think I owe you a phone call. That’s probably more like it. Hope you’re having fun!
