The Zamora family was a fun session, especially the humor of the four older siblings. They crack me up. The photographs will be a gift for their mother. We also photographed Geraldo and Michelle and their four good looking kids! Thank you for the opportunity to have photographed your families! We wish you all a very happy new year!

I first photographed Jonathan in soccer and cross country at Smithville HS. Jonathan is full of enthusiasm and comes across with an adventurous personality, as you can see by one of the snow photographs we did of him. He took me and his mom on a winter hike with the temperature at 15 degrees ( I must really like you Jonathan) to get to the location. I have to admit I had fun, even if it was freezing! Here’s a little background on Jonathan I asked him to provide for this blog posting.
Hey Rudy, here is what you asked for!
I have been interested in the cultures of different countries for a long time. I first traveled over seas to Brazil in June of 2006 when I was in 8th grade. Then I went on a trip to Egypt for 35 days the summer of 2008, but was also able to experience Germany on the way. Then this past summer I went to a country in South Asia, and stayed in the Dubai airport for a little while. As a senior in high school I have been to 5 of the 7 continents. I don't say this to brag because it is a huge privilege and none of this would have been possible without the hand of God.
My plans after high school are to eventually get a degree in physical education or intercultural studies and minor in psychology.
Rudy, Thanks again for the amazing photo shoot and making me look SEXY hah!

Karen Kopp is another one of our repeat clients that we appreciate very much! I photographed her son, Brian, when he was a senior in high school and now he’s going to college to become an engineer. It’s the first time we’ve photographed all the family. Brian requested some action images where he was harassing his younger brother, Kevin. Here you’ll see a sequence of photographs depicting his request. Again, here’s a variety of what we do in our family sessions! We wish the Kopp Family a great New Year!

I photographed Dylan’s sister a few years back. We missed the 2nd sibling, a brother, but we’re photographing the 3rd child. Dylan is a very calm individual, but he’s a good conversationalist. I told him he looked like a rock star with his hair. As you can see, he takes on quite a different look when he puts his hair in a pony tail. I had fun photographing Dylan as well as chatting with him. Dylan, I wish you the best with your future goals!

Angela was one of our Model Representatives a couple years ago and I also had the opportunity to photograph her sister, Candace, a few weeks back. Now, we photographed the whole family! Let me tell you, they’re a fun bunch to work with! Again, here you see the variety that can be done with a family to add a bit of spice to the session. It was a pleasure capturing the beautiful faces of all the ladies, and yes the handsome face of Steven. I love being your personal photographer!

I first met Megan when she came with Amanda Smith, one of our Model Representatives from Platte County. She’s Amanda’s good buddy! As you can see by one of the images here, Megan was photographed with a Siberian Husky in her prom dress. She looks pretty cool! I mentioned to Megan that she really has beautiful BIG EYES, as you can also see here in one of the images. Megan tells me her goal is to go into the medical field. She’s a very calm young lady and she will do well in the medical field. We wish you the best, Megan!

There’s some of our Model Representatives every year that have a second mini photo session done that shows some of their other interests, maybe wanted something in the fall or just want something CRAZY or out of the ORDINARY! Here’s some images for you to enjoy that were done recently and it might inspire you with your senior session.
Here you have, from Platte County, Max Van Fosson. The concept I’m trying to convey with these images of Max is that soccer has been a major part of his growing up years and his parents have always been behind him for support. His dad coached Max’s soccer team in his younger years.


Also from Platte County is Amanda Smith. Amanda wanted some images showing the fall season as well as showing her flexability. She has been a gymnast for several years and still keeps up with her work out to stay in shape. Ask her to show you some of her other contortionist poses. I told her she should seek employment with Barnum and Bailey Circus.


Tessa Graybill is from Smithville. Tessa has been actively involved in cheerleading and cross country all her high school years. I wanted to convey how much time and effort she has put into these two things over the years. The image of her in the grandstands with her jacket I feel tells a story of all the time she spent in the stadium cheerleading to the spectators, a little different twist from wearing the cheer uniform. We already had done some with her uniform in the studio with her first session. The cross country image I feel doesn’t need an explanation.


From Mid-Buchanan, we have Becca Miller. Becca has been involved with horses since she was six or seven years old. I believe that’s what she told me, give or take a year. She’s been in riding competitions and she has taught younger riders. Again, I wanted images that tell something about her passion for horses. We used the stable where she keeps one of her horses and, being a country cow girl, I had to have an image with her cow girl hat.
