Session Notes: 12/14/09

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS are in order to Daniel and Mandi on their engagement.  Daniel is about to graduate from Missouri Western and Mandi is working on her MBA at Webster University.  They are the ones in the image holding the basketball and football.  Then there's Erikka.  She was one of our model representatives for the class of 2009 from Mid-Buchanan High School.  She's no stranger to our studio.  Tyler, her high school sweetheart is also no stranger to our studio.  I did his senior photographs as well.  Both Erikka and Tyler are attending Missouri Western.  Here's a good example of the variety we capture with families in our studio.  Erikka's parents, Marcus and Elizabeth also got into the session.  Just in case your wondering about Daniel and Mandi's image with the balls, well, they asked for something different of the two of them.  Since they both played their favorite sport in college, we incorporated those.  Again, thank you all for the fun time and have a great holiday season!

Candace is a quiet young lady in comparison to her sister, Angela, I photographed a couple years ago.  Candace tells me she wants to be a journalist. As a matter a fact, she's been accepted to the journalism program at MU.  Candace loves her cat, Oliver.  I told Candace that her eyes look like cat's eyes.  Judge for yourself.  Candace, we wish you the best at MU next year!

It's Beginning To Look Like Christmas...

The Smithville Middle School Winter Dance is always a fun event for us to photograph!  We enjoy coming up with a different background every year for these young middle schoolers.  Their attitudes come across like they have waited all year for just this special event, to be photographed with their friends and buddies.  We would like to thank Becky Mast, the sponsor of the winter dance, for all her assistance!  We would also like to thank Mrs. Bargman and her son and Mrs. Kruger and her daughter for helping us break down the set-up and haul it all out!  We also want to thank all the students and parents for your business!  Have a wonderful holiday season!

It was fun photographing Bruce for the cover of his children's book soon to be published.  Bruce comes across as a very happy person.  He and his wife moved out here from New York a few years back.  I told Bruce to remember me when he becomes rich and famous with his book writing.  Bruce, we wish you the best with your future writings!

Spencer and I hit if off right away.  He's going into the U.S. Air Force after he graduates, into the computer field.  Me being retired from the Air Force/Air Guard, we had a lot to chat about.  He's also into martial arts, another one of my favorite subjects.  I also had the privilege of photographing Spencer's older brother a couple of years ago.  Spencer, we wish you the best in the Air Force.  You're a very focused young man.  You will do well!

Have you ever wondered if professional photographers are ever photographed?  The answer is yes.  It's been awhile for me.  Our schedules are just as crazy as our clients'.  We hear it when they call to book sessions with us all the time.  So that's why we are understanding and flexible!  I also had the challenge of getting together with my two kids to have Chris (our graphics designer/photographer) capture the images you see here.  The image of my two grandkids and me with the Santa hat's was Zaneta's idea.  We wish all our clients, friends and family a wonderful holiday season in the company of your families!

Here's another couple little guys that I'm very fond of!  I guess it's because they're my grand kids.  I have also been photographing them since they were only weeks old.  It's also an annual event!  William is now six and Jonathan is four.  It's hard to believe!  Jonathan is a moving target which means I need to stay ahead of him constantly!  After only two images, Jonathan tells me that he's done.  I would like to thank Zaneta for helping me with these two little guys.  I couldn't do it by myself. They're a handful!  I love you guys!
