Senior Photos Kansas City

Thank you to an alert Blue Valley Senior who tried in vain to email me regarding her senior pictures.  We had a programming error (my fault) in the Contact Us tab that has been corrected.  I apologize if you think I’ve been ignoring you.   I just didn’t program the function correctly.  It’s up and running now.

What is it you are trying to accomplish with your senior pictures?

I’m here to help.  Because everyone wants something a little bit different.  And that’s why I love doing what I do. Everyday is different.  And I love the challenges that each of you brings.  Part of the portrait session might find a young lady in a beautiful dress in a field of flowers or on a downtown park bench.  While the very next series of photos might be a really cool shot of that same young lady playing volleyball.  (Volleyball lends itself to some pretty cool pictures, by the way.)

Safety

First and foremost is the safety of each and every high school senior we photograph.  We will not ask you to do anything that is dangerous or makes you uncomfortable.  If we are driving somewhere you are welcome to take your own car if you feel that would be safer, as well.  And ladies, I will always have an assistant with me (or your parents if you like) so that you will feel comfortable and secure.

Imagination

Let’s get creative.  We’ll take  a few “standards” shots of you.  But I don’t mind pushing the limits of “normal” senior pictures.  Heck, if you don’t like the results you just don’t pick those pictures.  Sometimes new and different works and sometimes it doesn’t.  That’s life in a nutshell.  But either way we’ll have fun.

Fun

Come to take your senior pictures with a good attitude.  A professional photographer can make you look great.  But only you can make you look fantastic!  Did you know energy can be photographed?  I’m telling you it can.  It shows up in your posture, your smiles and your overall look.  We can turn on some fun music.  We can make bad jokes.  Whatever will help you to have a good time.

Put some ideas down on paper and give me a call today at 913.782.PICS.  We’d be glad to make some special portraits for you.

It’s time to start booking those appointments for your high school senior pictures.   We’ve produced wonderful senior portraits for seniors from the the following school districts; Olathe, Blue Valley, Shawnee Mission, DeSoto, Spring Hill and Gardner-Edgerton…just to name a few.  And we’ve even done more than a few for other school district kids from around the country.

We simply cannot believe summer has slipped by so quickly.  If anything, enrollment this last Tuesday reminded us that summer is almost over!  Time to start thinking of school.  And for you high school seniors, it’s time to start thinking about your senior portraits.  I know I’ve already had a couple of Olathe high school seniors (to be) book their photos for August.

When Should I Get My Senior Photos Done?
Over the years I see two peak periods for performing senior portrait sessions.  September and October are very popular months.  And then there is the last minute rush period in April and May.  Either way works fine.  And there really is no right answer.  Just think about what kind of backdrop you want for outdoor settings.  If you like fall colors you better not wait till April!  If you like more “urban” type senior pictures downtown then time of year won’t really matter.  And in fact, the cold of winter can add to the drama of the portrait.

When Should We Book Our Appointments?
Senior pictures are more time intensive than our usual portrait sessions.  So we can’t just do an unlimited number of them.  I recommend booking a couple weeks out.  Even a month or so is great.  Like I said, we already have a couple of our designated time slots filled for August. So don’t wait.

What Are The Costs Involved?
I would suggest jumping over to our senior portrait session pricing page.  We really feel that for the money and quality you will not find a better value.  Many, many Olathe and Gardner Seniors and their families have been very happy.

Can We Personalize Our Senior Pictures?
Can you?  I hope you do!  Listen, the point of senior portraits is to capture who you are today.  Your hopes.  Your dreams.  Your activities.  We like to talk to you first and get an idea of who you are so that we can formulate a plan just for you.  Your ideas, and those of your parents, are not only welcomed but they are encouraged. We’ll get the safe photos.  The tried and true, if you will.  But let’s also take a leap and see if there are any that can capture your essence, as well.
