Portrait of student(s) at UCLA campus

I'm looking for photos that convey a sense of optimism and confidence. Light and sunshine play a major role, using plentiful sunshine, natural washouts and sun flares. Blue sky should feel present as well. Sunrise or sunset shots would capture the warm colors and lens flares. The portraits should be taken from below, looking slightly up, to convey confidence and optimism. It should have a photojournalistic, candid feel: natural smiles, real interactions and movements. Avoid overly staged photos. Be bold, visionary, possibly even a little heroic, but also refined so as not to appear overly in-your-face.
