Here we are in compliance with Covid-19 guidelines, wearing our masks!
Let me tell you, it’s a strange feeling to be wearing a mask and doing a photo shoot! Fortunately, our clients do not need to wear a mask! Ha!
Oh well, like I have always said, You Gotta Do What You Gotta Do!!
Thank you, once again, to Melissa Sampley, Wells Bank Vice President, for continuing to put your trust in us to update your banking staff photos. Today we had the pleasure of photographing Jeff Farlow (Maryville Location) and Craig Hedrick (Platte City Location). We wish both gentleman the best in their new positions!
For us, this marks the first studio session we’ve been able to do since all the Covid-19 Craziness started.
This is the second session we have had the pleasure to have done with Ryan! He cut his hair and shaved off the full beard, so it was time to update his modeling portfolio. Here are the results of his updated photographs!
Ryan is a pleasant and fun individual to photograph! He’s a busy young man. He works at Target part-time, goes to college, and is venturing out into the modeling industry. He plans on moving to LA with two other friends once all the Covid-19 craziness is past! I feel the need to say this about this young man, in case you’re wondering what the tattoos on his right arm mean. He explained it to us that the 1999 is the year he was born and the film strip represents his passion for film!
I told him he resembled a young Eric Bana. Tell me what you think.
Ryan, Thank You Again for putting your trust in us to update your modeling portfolio. We Wish You The Best in LA! Just don’t forget about us when you get rich and famous.
Enjoy the Slideshow of Ryan’s Images!
It’s amazing when you have time on your hands (Coronavirus Pandemic) how your mind rewinds back to the past!

Below is also a slideshow with images of behind the scenes, showing our great crew setting up, being goofy, and having fun for a variety of jobs! As I Always Say, “90% Is In The Preparation!!! Our Clients Only See The 10%.”
First the first time in over 30 years, my crew and I have not done youth spring sports photographs for families! The Coronavirus outbreak has resulted in the largest disruption to all our schools, churches, sporting events, businesses, and families in ways we never thought possible since World War II.
It saddened us when our 2 1/2 year old granddaughter Sophia was signed up to play soccer with the Smithville Clinic teams and all events were canceled! We had purchased her soccer shorts, shoes, etc., But Don’t Despair! I went ahead and took her soccer photographs anyway. Enjoy some of her images in the slideshow. Sophia is also 17 months post liver transplant recipient! She’s Our Miracle Baby! Thank You to the Medical Professionals of Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo. 2020 is a Year To Remember! I would also like to thank all that we have served in the youth sports programs in the past 30 years! We wish the best to all families and God’s Blessings!
