Michael




Michael's only been in Harrisonville since last year, but he seems to have made himself at home here very quickly.  It could be because he's just at home in the country.  Michael's a trap shooter and hunter, and he'll be going to college in Kansas to study agriculture.  He's an easy-going guy and he made the session a lot of fun. 

The Powers Family




I have to say, I've met a lot of great families, but this was probably the most fun I've had with a family session!  I was laughing so hard the entire time that my sides hurt.  And I'm relatively sure those guns weren't loaded, so it was all good.  Happy 25th anniversary to Pat and Tammy!

Mitchell


Mitchell...MU.  That's all I have to say.  Well, there is a lot more to him than that.  He's passionate about basketball, MU, the "Mercernaries", and...MU.  What a great guy.  He didn't even make fun of me when I bumbled something once.  And he'll never tell...right, Mitchell?  We were also able to get some great family shots, including those lovable long-haired wienie dogs! 

Zach


Zach's big, lovable Harley came along for part of this session.  The big guy finally decided he didn't mind having his pictures taken after all, as long as he could lounge in the back of the old International.  Zach is a Wildcat football player, basketball player, and he's on the track team.  (The guy is lightning-fast, too!)  I took him to some places that were just a little creepy, but he seemed to trust me...kinda.  Anyway, we got a lot of great shots, especially in the scary places!

Chance





Chance is a 3-sport letterman, an intense competitor in football, basketball, and track.  But he's also one of the nicest, most sincere guys you'll ever meet.  An outdoorsman at heart, he brought along one of his conquests for his senior session.  (This must have been a BIG buck!)

Cooper family



We almost waited too long for those "fall colors", but spotted just a bit of color in the park to take advantage of.  We did all kinds of combinations with two families together, but didn't get little Miles to look happy until the very end...then we redid all the shots with a happy Miles!  Great families, great kids.

J.T.



J.T. has been in several different sports, but he really enjoys weight training, baseball, and music.  He's a fun guy and so easy to work with! (Psssst...don't mention those "guns" around him--he gets embarrassed easily!) 

Katie




Katie's a successful sprinter on the Wildcat track team.  This was one of those sessions where we almost had "too many good ones" to choose from!  (Love that beautiful hair!) 

Michelle



I've known Michelle since she was 7 years old, and it was so much fun to see her "all grown up" now!  She's a sweetheart, but she wouldn't crack that Mona Lisa smile no matter how I tried to trick her!  I know it's a cliche, but what a beautiful girl, inside and out. 

Kyle

Kyle is a senior at Raytown South and an avid football fan.  We squeezed his session in between games on a Sunday.  He'd rather be listening to Metallica or watching the Florida Gators on TV, but we had a good time anyway!

Josh


Josh is one of those guys who takes a stand for what he thinks is right and isn't afraid to tell anybody about it.  I have to admire that in him.  He's another one of those Wildcat football players we're so proud of, and he's involved in music and politics.  I have a feeling this guy could be on your ballot one of these days. 

Zech





Does this guy look great in pictures or what?!  I had so much fun with Zech because he was ready to make this session something different and fun.  First of all, he thought it would be fun to shave twice during the session for a total of three different "looks"--great idea, huh?  He climbed a wall for some pictures and did whatever it took to make a great image.  And just look at the results...I loved this session!

Tyler



I've known Tyler and his family for several years, and I have a lot of respect and admiration for him.  He just has so much going for him that you know he's going to be successful no matter what he chooses to do.  He's a great athlete, a bright student, and just one of those guys everybody loves. 

Meghan


Whew!  I have a lot of catching up to do on here.  Let's start with Meghan's second session, her fall outdoor session.  The fall colors were perfectly suited for Meghan and we found some beautiful locations.  Here are just a couple of my favorites.

Kori





What can I say about Kori?  She just has it all...drop-dead gorgeous, record-breaking athlete, and just a sweetheart.  Kori is a senior from Archie, and she's in track, volleyball, and cheerleading.  I loved this session!!!

Meghan


Meghan was a lot of fun!  I have a soft spot in my heart for softball players, and she reminded me of how much I miss hanging out at the field.
