Interview with Hannah Olsen - Washburn Rural Class of 2026 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Image
Hannah’s senior session was such a joy to photograph! We started out at a farm where she could be in her element with her horse. You could instantly tell how much riding means to her—it’s a huge part of her life, and it showed in the way she lit up around her horse. She has such a natural presence in front of the camera, and her beautiful smile made every photo shine. From there, we headed out into the country just in time for golden hour. The light was perfect, warm and glowing, and it created such a beautiful backdrop for her photos. We ended the session at Kaw River Park, where Hannah not only posed by the water in the setting sun but also got right in. Not many seniors are willing to do that, but she was all for it, and the images turned out phenomenal. With her parents there cheering her on, it made the evening even more special. I couldn’t be happier with how her pictures turned out—they truly captured her personality and passion. T.H. Peterson: What are your favorite classes t...

Carter was such a pleasure to photograph! From the moment we met, I could tell he’s a young man who’s going to do great things—smart, easygoing, and full of personality. He goes to Topeka High, plays on the drumline, and also enjoys soccer. During his session, we highlighted his drumming skills—he mentioned that snare is his favorite—and I know he’s having a blast right now with football season in full swing. We started in front of Topeka High, which made for some really fun shots, then headed to Shawnee Lake with a classic car that added some extra style to his photos. We wrapped up downtown with an incredible sunset that gave us some truly amazing images. All in all, it was a fantastic session, and I know his family is proud of him and excited to see all the great things Carter will do in the years ahead! T.H.

This Topeka wedding was absolutely beautiful, but what stood out most was how supportive and loving the families were. You could really feel the connection between everyone—it was the kind of day where two families truly came together in perfect harmony. The ceremony was heartfelt, and it was such an honor for our team to be part of capturing those moments. After the ceremony, we headed to the Townsite Tower for sunset photos, and it felt almost cinematic. The glowing golden hour light, the city skyline stretching out below, and even the birds flying across the sky—so perfectly timed that the groomsmen joked they must have been paid actors. It was magical. The reception that followed was full of fun, laughter, and so many photogenic moments. From start to finish, it was the kind of wedding that reminds us why we love doing what we do. Now for the fun part, here's some of our favorites from the big day. A beautiful collection of amazing moments that really give you a feel for how s...
