I have been blogging about the awesome seniors that we have photographed from our church. We’ll Adam is one of those extra special seniors. It’s hard to know where to begin when speaking of Adam. You see, we have known Adam since he was a boy of maybe eight or nine years old and my first memory of him was when he was with his mother at our studio and she noticed a picture on our wall of Second Presbyterian’s sanctuary that Scott had taken. We said something like “that’s our church” and Adam corrected us and said something like “that God’s house”. Wow I thought, he is correct and this came from such a young boy.
Now this young boy has become a man that we all can be proud of. I can’t help but brag about him. He is a good student of West Jessamine High School, accomplished musician of his high school marching band, a devoted Christian, polite, good looking, etc. I could go on and on because he is just that special of a guy.
This fall he will begin a new journey in his life as he becomes a freshman at the University of Kentucky. Scott and I along with his family and friends will continue to watch this young man grow into the man we all know he will be. We are all so proud of you Adam. Thank you for being a part of our lives. Our best, Valorie and Scott






Here is Adam with his girlfriend Annie. They make such a cute couple.


This is one our extra special seniors that we feel proud of and very pleased to be photographing her high school senior portraits. Fiona is a part of our church family which makes her even more special than already she is. This young lady is smart, talented and beautiful all wrapped up to make a unbelievably outgoing/ambitious person. She has impressed us both in a way that we stay in awe of her.

She is one of the talented students of SCAPA that stays involved in many plays in and outside of her school.


I see her as whimsical and carefree in these pictures. What do you think?

I know we will continue to admire her as she makes her way through life.

Scott and I wish her the best of luck with all of her future endeavors. God bless, Valorie

Having your senior portrait taken is a rite of passage for high school seniors. Thank you Rylee for letting us share this with you. Best wishes, Valorie

Have you ever known a great all-round guy? Well that’s Nick. He is talented, smart and has a great personality. We have been photographing Nick for several years with the PL Dunbar High School Band so he was no stranger to us. Here are a few of my favorite pictures. Kind regards, Valorie

I first met Andrew when I was photographing the Henry Clay High School Band. I was pleased when his mother called and ask me to photograph his senior pictures. Andrew is quite a talented young man and he brought his drum and his collection of drum sticks with him. He sure rocked-out the studio when he demonstrated his drumming technique. Scott




Even though we photographed Jessica’s senior portraits a couple of years ago her mother wanted us to create a keepsake album. Because we archive our clients images this was not a problem but exciting to revisit those stunning images Scott took of her daughter. The album and unique cover she chose is most fitting to her daughter’s personality. Her album cover is a combination of textures of leather and faux cheetah fur. Jessica and her mother loved the album and is already planning Jessica’s next photography sitting.
Some of our favorite students we photograph each year are the PL Dunbar High School Band and generally there are a few of those students we have the honor to photograph their senior pictures. Well this year Breanna is one of those seniors and we couldn’t be more happy to photograph her. We started the sitting in the studio with a few outfit changes including Breanna in her winter color guard uniform. It was great speaking to her about her college/career plans and even more importantly was the excitement about the prom the following evening.



I was excited when Robert’s mother called to make his senior photography appointment. You see, we have been photographing Robert since he was 8 years old and truly love him and his family. Robert is so dear to Scott and myself and how proud we are of him. But before we get to his senior pictures I must show you some of his “younger days” with us.
We photographed his sitting completely on location. We love it when our seniors have something they are passionate about and with Robert it’s his golf game. A great way to start the sitting was taking a few shots with his clubs.





Ryan is a recent graduate of Lexington Catholic High School, Lexington Ky. We began the sitting at the studio with some great classic shots then to Waveland Mueseum State Historic Site for some fantastic location pictures. I couldn’t have asked for a better day to be out photographing. Ryan was a great subject and an all-round great guy. He’s off to the University of Kentucky this fall. Good luck! Scott



Jordan comes to us from East Jessamine High School, Nicholasville Ky. I met Jordan and his family at Waveland Museum State Historic Site and the weather wasn’t on our side that day. We had a slow drizzle for the whole time but that didn’t stop us from having a great session and Jordan was a real trooper. Even in the light rain we trekked all the way to the railroad tracks for some awesome pics. We just photographed Jordan’s little cousin a few weeks ago. Check out our blog for Peyton’s pictures.
