Once again, I am behind in posting. I will keep the talk to a minimum, and simply post some images here to show you what's been keeping me so busy. It is my busiest time of year, with senior portraits, families, and Christmas portraits coming soon. If you are in Mid Missouri as I am, I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather and the changing leaves. Winter will be here too soon, so store up some beauty in your mind for the barren cold to follow! Have a wonderful October.

Hey, I've finally finished my new high school Senior Photography Scholarship Program. This is basically a scholarship for senior pictures. I know many deserving young people in our area cannot afford the photographer of their choice, and often have to settle for the cheapest they can find--Hey times are tough, and we all know it. There will be three (3) scholarships given to area seniors, and five honorary mentions, who will get an $80 session for free and a discount on anything else. The entry requirements are posted on the web, and awards will be given on need, special circumstances, achievement and character. Well, I guess I'm trying to make a difference in a small way. If you've ever seen the front page of my website, you know I believe in real, genuine quality professional portraiture. (Yeah, I couldn't help but put more "qualifiers"-- too many people with cameras who don't know anything but to look at the "TV screen" on the back.) I just shake my head and keep my mouth shut-- I love 'ya all, you know that :)

I've sent information to all the area high schools and the area papers and I've even got the pages and links in my website completed---I'm WORN out! No pictures on the blog post today, but if you want to check out my Senior Portrait Scholarship (SPS) program, go to the Seniors page on my website.

Also, if you are an area HS Senior, watch your mailbox for your special offers . . . 1/2 off the session, free 8x10 and even $20 toward your total bill in a GAS credit. I really want to be YOUR photographer. Have a great day . . . Summer is just around the corner now!

Hey, it sure has been awhile since I posted here. Wow, does time get away from you when you have too much to do. Here are some recent images I photographed of a 2008 senior from Webb City, MO. He is a great kid, and a true sports fan! I think the 2008 seniors are about done, and I am gearing up for a GREAT year with next year's seniors. I have been working on landscaping, and even planted 38 new trees. I am now officially "green," but those trees will be a while growing, and I am doing other things to enhance my outdoor photography sets. I've learned a lot more about image enhancement, and I truly enjoy the WOW factor I get when my clients see that first image projected on the screen.

If you are live in Camdenton, Lebanon, Stoutland, Waynesville, Osage Beach, Rolla, and many points between, watch your mail for a GREAT offer on Senior portraits starting as soon as I can get them printed and sent out.

Senior Portrait and Family Portrait seasons are here--YAAY! It has been a long, cold winter, and I'm so glad spring is here. We will be extremely busy from now until after Christmas, so call for any current specials I might have, and I hope you have a great summer.

I'm going to keep this short, and TRY to post more often. Until later--
