Missouri Youth Orchestra - Part 3

One of the musicians I met at the MYO was a lot of fun. He was a bass player named Keenyn. Upbeat and personable, he has more personality than most. He was a bit of a character, which is intentional, but it's unusual to see someone so young have such a terrific and confident outlook. I liked his hat:



As I got to know Keenyn a little bit over the weekend, I was impressed by how comfortable he was in his own skin. When I make images, many teens are often pretty uneasy in front of my lens. Not so Keenyn: he took it in stride, and even enjoyed it quite a bit. He was a real pleasure to work with, and he's put quite a few nice comments in the photo gallery for the Festival.
