Deegan Noah: A Senior Profile Portrait by Madisen McBride (2011)

My character's name is Deegan Noah. In many ways, he is my dream boyfriend, but at the same time seems to share some of my deepest emotions. His attitude and emotions reflect some of my own in the sense that I have always wanted a sibling and I sometimes I feel like something is missing from my life because I don't have one, but for Deegan he lost his best friend/Brother, so he is trying to live with the fact that he no longer has him there. He is my dream boyfriend in the sense that he is smart, sporty, tall and good looking. On a deeper level, I am usually attracted to people who have had something bad happen in their lives, but have come out of the experience stronger. I really wanted to incorporate that characteristic into Deegan, especially through the picture. My portrait of Deegan really hits all the key points of his character. Deegan is a 19 year old boy who studies Biopsychology at UCSC, surfs daily, goes bird watching every Saturday morning and recently lost his twin brother in a surfing accident. I used all of the simple representations of all of his characteristics but wanted to add a little something to represent his brother. So the wet suit has a double meaning. It is there to be a symbol of Deegan's surfing, but I wanted the back light to hit it in a way that made it stand out subtlely, making a bit ghostly to represent his brother.
