Lindsey C | A country and city senior portrait session

admin — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 21:10:05 +0000

I was really looking forward to Lindsey’s senior session – I’ve known her and her family for quite some time, and have photographed her before (as a part of a family session) – she knows how to work it for the camera! We had a gorgeous day and some incredible light for her session last week, and Lindsey taught me a bit about various species of trees here in the Kansas/Missouri area (seriously, the girl can identify nearly any leaf out there!) Seriously, dendrology knowledge aside, this is one beautiful young lady!

Tucker P | another fantastic fall senior portrait session

Tucker’s session is the 3rd of 4 high school senior sessions to hit the blog this week – you can tell the mad rush has been on to take advantage of warmer fall weather and the super dry conditions we’ve had – another few weeks and portrait sessions will start slowing down (which means it’s a great time to get on the schedule quickly and easily – late fall and even winter portraits are absolutely gorgeous!) We had a lot of fun with his dogs and checking out some gorgeous places to shoot right around his home. Sometimes you don’t have to go very far at all to get unique and great shot locations!

Cole C | Liberty High School senior session

We shot Cole’s senior session last Friday morning at his grandparent’s place – which was absolutely gorgeous albeit a bit frosty. Cole made sure to bring some Cardinals swag – given that they’d won the World Series the night before, I’d say that was appropriate

Andrew C: an urban Kansas City senior portrait session

admin — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 23:56:24 +0000

Andrew met me on a gorgeous (stark contrast to the rainy, windy, freezing weather outside) late afternoon last week in Kansas City’s Crossroads Arts District for his senior session. What a personable young guy he is! Have fun checking his session out – and if you like senior sessions, you are in luck, because Andrew is the first of four headed to the blog this week!

Happy rainy evening! (we NEED it!)

Kelly M | Parkville senior portraits

admin — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 02:34:49 +0000

Kelly was originally scheduled for her senior portraits the week before we shot them – and we postponed, as it had been raining, and was cloudy and dreary. She really liked the sun in a lot of my work, so we pushed the session back a week to this Monday which dawned…cloudy, stormy and dreary. Luckily, it cleared out and we had a great evening for her session! Isn’t she a gorgeous girl? We shot this session around Parkville, Missouri – and although there is flooding all around the city, as you can see there are plenty of GREAT areas to shoot that are just fine!

Jocie J: senior portraits | Briarcliff Village, Kansas City

Jocie and her boyfriend, Matt, came up to my studio to do her senior session last Friday afternoon. It was a gorgeous day to shoot and I love shooting in the little park across from my studio. Jocie is a senior at Shawnee Mission South, and will be attending Pitt State next year along with Matt, who is a freshman there. Congratulations on your upcoming graduation, Jocie, you were a lot of fun to work with!

Matt joined in on a few photos at the start of the session – aren’t these two adorable?

gorgeous!

Tiffany F: senior portraits | Parkville, Missouri

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:54:52 +0000

I called Tiffany the morning of her senior session: “are you SURE you want to do your session? We can reschedule, I know it’s cold out there.” See, 48 hours earlier it was EIGHTY DEGREES. The morning of Tiffany’s senior portraits, it was 29. Poor girl! But no, she was determined to press on and what a tough cookie! Despite the cold and overcast skies, we got some great, great stuff….kinda hard not to, Tiffany is SUCH a cutie! And she marks my first official senior session of 2011.

Caitlyn F: senior portrait session | Nelson-Atkins and Country Club Plaza

admin — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 21:25:08 +0000

I met Caitlyn and her mom Lavinia on a fa-reeeezing late afternoon for Caitlyn’s senior shoot; we started at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art right at sunset then continued into the Plaza to shoot some at night. We unfortunately missed the Plaza lights by a few days but we still got some super cool shots! Caitlyn is hoping to attend the Kansas City Art Institute and wants to pursue an art degree – so we worked some of her love for art into the first half of the shoot and got some super cute stuff.

Kaylee K: senior portrait session | Briarcliff Village and Loose Park

admin — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 20:08:59 +0000

Kaylee and her mom met me at the studio last week to embark on her senior photos – the days had shortened to the point that we had to rush to get to Loose Park and have enough daylight left. I’m glad we did – Kaylee’s ballerina shots are among my favorite senior shots ever, I believe. Isn’t she such a pretty girl?

looove this shot.

Ian N: senior portrait session | Kansas City Crossroads Arts District

admin — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 17:30:59 +0000

Ian was a trouper for joining me for his senior session early last Friday morning, after a freeze the previous night (read: it was a wee bit chilly!) Ian’s shoot is the first of THREE from last Friday – all of which had such AWESOME light (not to mention awesome clients). Ian’s mom Jana works with MY mom – has been a “SDP fan club” member for a while now, so I was naturally flattered to do Ian’s senior session!
