Interview with Diego - Washburn Rural Class of 2022 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Image
Diego's shoot was a blast. He was such a unique and cool dude. I loved his expressions and laid back personality. He even had his mom and sister with him and we got shots of them together which was really nice. We started downtown and ended up heading out to Kaw River Park near the Governor's Mansion and we got some amazing shots out on the river bed. It was awesome because the water levels were low enough for us to go way on the Kansas river and pose on the sand and gravel. His session was beautiful and I'm so excited to share these!! Enjoy! T.H. Peterson: What are your plans after high school? Diego: Probably tech school.   T.H. P.: If you could give yourself advice when you first started high school, what would you say? Diego: Nothing. T.H. P.: Describe yourself in one word. Diego: Relaxed. T.H. P.: What did you like most about your session with us? Diego: The feeling of comfortability and fun. T.H. P.: You seem close to your family. What is something you love and apprec...

Interview with Hailey Mayer-Gropp - Shawnee Heights Class of 2022 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Image
Hailey was a lot of fun to hang out with and photograph. She had the best smile! We photographed during our senior special where we were giving our assistants an opportunity to practice and shoot sessions. Amanda and Charles did an outstanding job! I kind of got the impression that she was a little reserved when we met her but it didn’t take long for her to start laughing and smiling and before we knew it, we were getting real genuine expressions from her. We did her session in August and it was a little warm but it was truly a beautiful summer afternoon and I think it put us all in a great mood! Here’s a few of our favorites and I’m super happy with the results! Enjoy and here’s to an amazing senior year Hailey! All the best! T.H. Peterson: What do you look forward to most this last year? Hailey: I'm looking forward to my last marching season and actually being able to go to the competitions. T.H. P.: What is your favorite and least favorite class? Hailey: My favorite class is eit...

Interview with Ashton Lowe - Mission Valley Class of 2022 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Ashton immediately caught our attention with his awesome naturally curly mullet!  We haven’t ever seen such a cool hairstyle on a senior before in our lives. He had a really great smile, and he was so laidback!  The best part was watching his mom's reaction as we took his picture!  She told us afterwards how unique of a guy her son is and that we captured him perfectly during the session. His session was just perfect. He was so much fun to photograph and it was the most beautiful afternoon. We love this guy and we hope his mullet stays as cool as he is!  Enjoy! T.H. Peterson: When you look back on this school in later years, what will you remember most? Ashton: Being a Viking Spirit leader my senior year was so much fun!  The football, volleyball and basketball student sections are always the best! T.H. P.: What is one outrageous thing you desperately want to try before you die? Ashton: Ride a bull. T.H. P.: If you could move anywhere in the world, where would y...
