Bowman Family – 2/29/20

It’s always a great pleasure when a long time client like the Bowman family comes back to update their family portrait!! When Brad called and scheduled their family session, he wanted it to be a secret for his wife Kathy.  The portrait session was a surprise for her 60th Birthday and their 35th Anniversary! Their two sons, one in the Air Force and one in the Navy, both are pilots and they flew in for the occasion.  The session also included Brad and Kathy’s daughter as well as two spouses and the four grand boys!  I had the opportunity to photograph this family 10 years ago – Check Out The Composite that was made from that session!  WOW!  What an honor it is to have them return for updated portraits!  Thank you all so very much for remembering us! Again, you can see the variety that can be done with your family session!  One more item to add to this wonderful story…  You can see in one of the images, Brad presented Kathy with a beautiful necklace.  You can see her pulling it out of the box!!!!

Esther Shipman With Grandchildren – 1/1/20

Esther and the Shipman family have been long time clients of our studio! Having photographed their families and all three grand boys and other family functions. We did this session in Esther’s home.

This session with her grandchildren had LOTS of meaning for Esther (grandma)! She’s been trying to get this done for about five years! With all the boys being in college and now working, well you get the picture!

Esther had called and said that New Years Day 2020 is the only day she could get the three boys together and asked if we did sessions on holidays. I just couldn’t say no to Esther, especially when she’s been trying for so long. We love it when established clients call us. It’s What A Professional Studio Strives For In Our Careers – Repeat Elite Clients! It’s About 83% Of Our Studio Work!!! Thank you Esther and Grand Boys for the opportunity once again! It’s always a pleasure!

Shipman Grandchildren – Continued

While photographing her and the boys with her dogs, Esther suggested the idea for the image shown here. She has wall decor collages of all three grandchildren for their senior portraits. Harrison graduated in 2011, Tyler in 2014, and Mitchell in 2016. She wondered if we could do something with the display to tell a story. Of course we can! That’s What We Are All About Here At Rudy’s For The Past 30 Years, Creating Wall Decor Memories For Our Clients To Enjoy For A LifeTime! You Can’t Do That With A Flash Drive! Again, thank you for the opportunity, Esther!

Ponak Family – 10/19/19

Thank you to Lori Ponak (MOM) for once again putting her trust in us to photograph Reece, Erin, and Baby Mia! We did Reece’s senior photographs several years back! This session was exciting from the stand point that Reece clued me in ahead of time that he was going to propose to Erin During The Photography Session and he wanted to have it captured! Erin had no clue! That was part of the excitement of the session, as you can see in some of the images. We also captured their beautiful baby, Mia! Again, you can see the variety that can be done with your family session! Reece and Erin, you have a beautiful baby girl that gets her beauty from both of YOU! Lori, again, thank you so much for the opportunity!

Edwards Family – 7/27/19

It’s hard to believe that we did the Edwards Family 10 years ago for their 40th Anniversary. Leslie and Barbara are celebrating their 50th Anniversary in December but wanted to get ahead of the game. So, it was time to get all the family together again! This session was done here in our 3-Acre Outdoor Portrait Area. Again, you can see the variety that can be done with your family portraits here at Rudy’s. Barbara had a wonderful suggestion… She requested to have an individual of each one of the family members! GREAT IDEA BARBARA! Thank you, again, so much for the opportunity and for thinking of us once again to do your beautiful family!
