Interview with Kayden Baker - Perry Lecompton High Class of 2027 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Image
Some senior sessions are good, and some are just flat-out memorable. Kaden’s session at Clarion Woods definitely falls into the second category. Kayden is a senior at Perry-Lecompton High School and plays both football and baseball, so we knew we wanted something that felt strong and athletic. His mom had a vision for a dramatic photo of him coming out of the pond with water splashing everywhere, and it turned out even better than we imagined. Kayden was a great sport through it all, willing to jump in and trust the process, and the results were incredible. Once we added some smoke, dramatic lighting, and a few strong poses, everything came together. The photos really highlighted how much hard work Kaden has put into athletics over the years. More than anything, though, it was easy to see what a solid young man he has become. I even mentioned to his mom during the session how grown up he looked. He has a great personality, was easy to work with, and made this one of those sessions tha...

Piper's newborn session - Interview with Mom - Topeka's Best Newborn Photographers

Image
There was so much to love about Piper's newborn session! The first thing everyone noticed was her incredible head of hair. She had thick blonde hair that honestly looked like a tiny little wig. She was absolutely beautiful and one of the most mellow babies we've photographed. I don't think we heard a single peep out of her the entire session. She was content, sleepy, and sweet from start to finish, making it easy to capture lots of different poses and expressions. It was also obvious how much this family loves their newest little addition. Big sister, who is just three years old, was completely smitten with Piper. She loved holding her, giving her kisses, and being close to her throughout the session. Those moments were some of my favorites because they were so genuine and sweet. Between Piper's calm personality, her adorable hair, and all the love from her family, this session couldn't have gone any better. It was truly the perfect newborn shoot. T.H. P.: What did...

Interview with Payden Born - Eudora High School Class of 2027 - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits

Image
Payden's senior session was such a great one from start to finish. We started out at Eudora High School, where we were able to incorporate some of the activities that have been an important part of his high school years, including band and Science Olympiad. Payden was friendly, easy to work with, and had a great smile throughout the session. One thing I noticed was how much he lit up when talking about Science Olympiad and some of the things he's involved in at school. As soon as the conversation turned to something he was passionate about, he relaxed and his personality really started to shine through, which always makes for the best natural expressions. After finishing at the high school, we headed to a nearby pond and were treated to one of the most incredible sunsets I've seen in a while. The water was perfectly still, creating a beautiful backdrop as the sun dropped lower in the sky. Everything seemed to glow with warm golden light, and it made for some truly stunning ...

Lillian and Brendon's beautiful wedding day - Gorgeous Rustic Kansas Wedding

Image
Brendon and Lillian's wedding day was one we won't soon forget. Tucked away on a beautiful family property deep in the woods, their ceremony felt like something out of a storybook. Earlier in the week, everyone was keeping a close eye on the weather and preparing for the possibility of rain, but the skies cooperated perfectly. We were even treated to some sunshine throughout the day, making the already gorgeous setting feel even more magical. From the moment the day began, there was a mix of excitement, nerves, laughter, happy tears, and all the emotions that make wedding days so special. Their sweet little boy was also a huge part of the day and completely stole the show more than once. He was all smiles from start to finish, happy, playful, and about as photogenic as a kid can be. Every time we pointed a camera in his direction, he was ready with another adorable expression. One of the most touching moments came during the father-daughter dance. Lillian's dad had injured ...
