Noelle


Noelle was awesome. We did some shooting with the ring light and a grand piano which I had never done so gave me a chance to experiment. We went downtown Lees Summit, then on out of Longview. I really had alot of fun and Noelle was a good sport, even when I asked her to sit in a nappy chair that was sitting in an abandoned house. Thanks Noelle.

I have to say that I have done alot of field shots, but hers are some of my favs.
One of my favorite shots because of the look away and then some the color I experimented with. Just looks really innocent.

This would be the chair. Hey I lifted up the cushion to make sure there was nothing dead under it.


Parking garages are great. Great place to dance as well.


I love Noelle's look on the left. She just sat and I pressed the button. I ended up putting the ring light up and just using the light from the window. Great look Noelle.


Looks like an old vintage pic. Love it.

Thanks Noelle for letting me shoot ya, it was awesome.

Mogan Frake


Got a chance to know this incredible girl. I have met her before but really loved the chance I had to get to know her more. You should read some of her writings sometime...uber talented.
Anyway after a little ring light session we decided to head downtown, little did we know what an adventure that would be getting down there. Ended up some how on the Kansas side in a train yard. We had to go through a one lane tunnel that had railroad tracks as well. But all in all I had a blast.
Love the hat.


One of my fav pics. You can't see them, but there are skateboarders in the back, Morgans mom had no problem striking up a conversation with them. She was pretty funny.


Have to be honest. Most of the time I don't like the whole black and white and leave one thing in color. But I think this one worked well.


Thanks Morgan I had a blast. Next time I will follow you, maybe we won't get as lost.

Kenzi Jordan


This is Kenzi. I have know Z since Jr. High and wow is she uber talented. She loves to be behind a camera as well, and I always tell her not to forget me when she is rich and famous.

The picture above may be one of my most favorite pictures I have ever taken. We had so much fun during this photoshoot.

We only got to take about 6 photos in the room below, because we got kicked out.
Love the leg.

I think I got lucky and caught Kenzi when she had settled down and God placed a beautiful smirk on her face.


Got to love the Chucks.

Thanks Z, it was so much fun. Don't forget me when your famous!

Chelse Allen

This was so much fun. I have known Chelsea since her freshman year. Always so quite but so beautiful. The series from above that I used the ring light were amazing. Thanks Chelsea for letting me get behind the camera.


One of my favorite pictures because she is not looking at the light. Just seems like a perfect moment.

This is the first time I have used this out at Longview. I really don't know what it is but it made for a great backdrop. Great lines.

Again a fav.


The following series are unbelievable, the light blue in her dress with the old house in the back.

I love boots.

This is Andrea. I met Andrea when she was like in 7th grade or something. Wow, she's not in Jr. High anymore. I love this girl. Her pics turned out so good. People don't believe me that some people make it easy to be a photographer, I just push a button. She is one. We did this session over a couple of days. Thanks Dre, you are beautiful.

One of my favs. I love her look here.

So while we were out here we did some shots that required me to get in the grass and lay down. No lie probably picked off 60 to 70 tics. I was infested. But it was worth it.


Can't help but love this look. Her hair, with the long dress and then the long hallway in the background. WOW.
Brent Thomas

One of my first seniors of "oh nine", and it was a blast. We played at The Plaza, went to a warehouse and ended in the alleys. Brent was alot of fun, but did have a bit of the yawns. He's got great style even if his jeans are a bit tight. I really did have a blast, thanks man.



I think this was his fav, I am sure his mom loves it.



I love this look.

Florida and Elizabeth

Maybe the photoshoot ever! A couple of reasons why, one Elizabeth was an easy target, no posing, she did herself. The other is obvious it was Florida. I think the pic above is my fav. and was her idea.























I love the two photos above again because they were just natural. This girl always had her ipod on the whole trip and so it was just natural to take a pic with her ipod on.

What a setting. The pic above is at some eating joint. The greatest though are th pics below because it got a whole lot deeper than we had anticipated, but it sure was fun.
























What a great trip we were actually there for the senior trip Amy and I had a blast. Elizabeth you rock!
