Interview with Tanner Buckley - 2017 Shawnee Heights Grad - Topeka's Best Senior Portraits



 I am immensely excited to share our session with Tanner Buckley with you all. I met Tanner a couple years ago and what struck me most was how nice and respectable he seemed. He was excited to have his portraits done and the feeling was mutual. I am always excited when a senior is into their session just like we are. That's because you can even be more creative than normal. Tanner is photogenic, he had great ideas and the end results were pretty bad apple. The afternoon was perfect. Awesome weather, beautiful light, overall an amazing day! Thank you for checking out Tanner's shoot. Hope you love them just as much as we do! Also, check out his slideshow at the bottom of this post! OHHHHH and make sure to read his interview. I loved his answers! Humble, smart, overall great guy!
T.H. Peterson:  What do you like best about going to Shawnee Heights?
Tanner: The best thing about going to Shawnee heights is the impact I can make there. I feel like I make a difference to people wether I make them laugh, smile or touch them with my advice, etc.
T.H. P.:  I'm impressed with your physique for a high school senior. Tell me about your work out regimen. 
Tanner: My work out regimen isn't very specific. I go in the gym 6 days a week if not 7 and I work my butt off for 2-3 hours. It's in the kitchen where I strive and succeed the most.
T.H. P.: What's your favorite outdoor activity? (non sports related)
Tanner: My favorite outdoor activity would be just going on a nice walk on a beautiful day or even just laying out staring at the sky.
T.H. P.: What are your plans after high school?
Tanner: After high school I plan to play college baseball and during the process receive a degree.
T.H. P.: WHat is your proudest moment in your high school athletic career?
Tanner: My proudest moment would be making the 5A all-state baseball team. It's always been a goal if not dream of mine to be apart of it so it was definitely a very proud moment for me.
T.H. P.: Favorite thing about your shoot with us?
Tanner: My favorite thing about my shoot is the freedom you guys gave me and with whatever I wanted you knew how to make it look the best.
T.H. P.: How would you describe your relationship with your sister. We enjoyed having her on your session and we think it's cool you and her are close.
Tanner: My sister and I are very close being twins and although I am the "little brother" I believe I look out for her and I am definitely her protector.
T.H. P.: What is your favorite movie of all time?
Tanner: My favorite movie of all time would have to be Remember the Titans.
T.H. P.: What kind of music gets you pumped before a game?
Tanner: I love all music. Rap, country, rock, etc. but what really gets me pumped is rap. Mainly 21 Savage or Kodak Black.
T.H. P.: What sort of athletic goals do you have for yourself?
Tanner: I want to be a 2 time all state baseball player and I want to be a multi-sport all state athlete. (Baseball and football)
T.H. P.: What do you think of the McGregor / Mayweather fight?
Tanner: Each fighter definitely has their own advantages and I think it will be a better fight than everyone has predicted. I hope Conor wins but if Floyd can go 50-0 I'm happy for him too.
T.H. P.: What would people be surprised to learn about you?

Tanner: I think people would be surprised to learn that in my childhood I was very obese. I don't think many people assume or guess that by looking at me today but with a little hard work and dedication any goal is attainable.

How to Prepare for a Photo Session - Topeka's Best Family Portrait Photographers

Image
Select outfits that will make for a timeless portrait. Choose practical clothing items, and keep the location and time of year in mind.  Select clothing items and accessories that are not too distracting or that you will have to adjust often during the session (think long necklaces or ruffled tops on a windy day).  Keep in mind the weather, wind speed, and humidity/chance of rain.  If you have littles, bring them some snacks to help give them incentives during the session.  This can help us to get kids to cooperate and make or break a session.  If it is windy, wear your hair up.  Trimming your bangs/hair slightly to keep them out of your eyes is a great idea, too! Use product like mousse, gel, pomade, and hairspray to tame your mane!    Pick shoes that will be easy to walk in at the location of the session.  For example, high heels are not recommended for sunflower shoots, but would look great in an urban/downtown setting.  Bring an extra jacket or cardigan to th
