To be honest, I am new to texture. I love the look, but rarely am I able to achieve a look that really "goes" with the pose or the subject. But one of my more recent shoots (it really was just a phone family shoot since my brother-in-law was in town and hadn't had senior pictures made yet) really SCREAMED to have texture. I added texture to ALOT of the portraits from that session, but this one really stood out to me. I love the natural texture of the building, and then the added grunge just fits with the rocker look that Nathan was going for.... I feel like it just adds that perfect touch that makes you step back from your artwork as a photographer and smile. Hope it makes you smile too!

PS- I used one of the free textures from the Ruffed Up Texture Pack from Shadow House Creations... be sure to check out his awesome stuff!
