Senior Portrait Special

In celebration of this fantastic fall-like weather this week I have decided to offer a very limited-time Senior Portrait Special. Set up your Senior session appointment by August 31, 2010 and receive 15% off your session fee! This means the session can take place anytime in the next 9 months, not that you have to have the session in a week. So all you have to do is give me a call or submit my website contact form, pick a day and pay 1/2 of the discounted session fee and you're set! The remainder of the session fee won't be due until the day of the session. And, don't worry about bad weather either. If the weather doesn't cooperate for us on your session day we can reschedule for a time that is good for everyone, possibly even the day or week after, without any added fees (nobody can control the weather!) But more days like these would definitely be welcome!

Happy Back-to-School to the Class of 2011!!

Madison's Senior Safari

Madison, her mom & I met up on a hot & swampy day in July for her senior photo shoot. We dodged thunderstorms for weeks but finally got a really great day so we went for it! We went all over Lee's Summit and had lots of time for multiple outfit changes. It was a memorable shoot for sure. We ended with her mom's fantastic idea to do a mermaid look with Madison wearing her prom dress in a waterfall. She supplied the idea & dress & I knew just the location to do it. It turned out beautifully! Madison later got to wash the pond scum out of her hair and we ended up with some of my favorite images ever!

Jamie's Senior Session

Yesterday I had a great time venturing out to Tonganoxie High School to meet up with Jamie and his mom Regina for Jamie's senior portrait session. Jamie is in both basketball and football so the school was a great location and even better, we had the place to ourselves. I had fun getting shots of him in the empty hallways and on the bleachers out by the field.

After graduation next spring Jamie is going to college to become a chef and with my husband being a chef we had a great topic to talk about & Jamie loosened up in front of the camera after no time at all. So, despite Jamie's first words to me of "I hate having my picture taken" I think we got some great shots of him! :o)

I think this shot is my personal fave. We found a much needed shady spot for this one. At 9am it was already really hot outside!
