    My name is Chris and I am the President and Chief Photographer of Portraits Today Studios located in Olathe, Kansas.  We are a full service portrait studio specializing in families and children. When it comes to working with high school seniors, well, that's my specialty.

    1992 was the year I sold my first photograph.  I lived in the Washington, DC area at the time and quickly built a reputation as a sports photographer.  My work has been published in national magazines and newspapers, including The Washington Post.  Though mostly my work hangs in the living rooms and dens of people just like yourself. 

    Naturally, taking so many photos of athletes led to working with young men and women on their high school senior portraits. Over the years I have to say this is the most fun I have as a professional photographer.  I've photographed famous people like Mia Hamm and babies of all persuasions. But high school seniors like yourself bring great joy because of your willingness to try something new...to reach out and tell a story through the photos we take. 

    Welcome to our blog at Senior Photos KC. Getting great high school senior pictures is hard work.  But it should also be great fun. So just relax.  We'll help you look your best. 

    Give me a call to discuss what we can do for you.  Or stop by the our studios in Olathe.  I'd love to talk to you.   BECOME A FACEBOOK FAN!

Olathe North Senior Pictures

Look for more senior pictures of this young man to be featured here in the upcoming weeks.  He attends an Olathe high school.  He and his mom were looking for some casual senior pictures to express who he is.  They specifically did not want to do the traditional suit & tie photo.  We hope he will enjoy these for years to come.

New Place For Senior Pictures

bike-photgrapherI like to mountain bike.  And yesterday I went out riding trying to re-establish the health of this 43 year old body.  While out riding I found a couple of great new locations for Senior Pictures.

Ladies, imagine standing in a slow moving stream with your dress hiked up just enough to keep it dry.

Gentlemen, imagine the splash of your tires as you ride your bike through.  Or stand there with your pants legs rolled up.

Or whatever scenario we might come up with while we are out there.  We have fantastic studios.  But now that it’s getting warmer I’m itching to get outside a little.  To experiment.  To create some truly memorable senior portraits.

We’ve got a couple more Class of 2009 high school seniors we are taking here in the next ten days. So stay tuned for more images to come.

Touching Up Your Senior Portrait

Below we have pictured a beautiful young lady from Olathe North High School who came in for her senior portrait.  When you look though our pricing/investment page you will see the term “- touch ups and b/w included.” Here you have an example of the kinds of touch up we can do and will do.

No one wants to have a senior picture hanging on their parents’ walls with skin blemishes and such.  So we promise to get rid of nearly all of them on your final portrait.  Of course, some want a more natural look on some if not all their pictures.  That’s okay, too.  Whatever you like.  (Most get a mix.)
