Meet Lauren...

Lauren will be our 3rd CK Rep at JM next year. I've had the privilege of getting to know her over the past couple of years and am grateful for it. She's a fantastic volleyball player (scholarship worthy); very reserved, not common in today's teenage, athletic world; she's extremely intelligent, and fun to be around. For the image below, I had an idea incorporating her in one of her favorite environments, the volleyball court (thanks Joel Grimes). We know Lauren will represent us well this year... You'll be seeing more of her this coming 2013 school year, but for now here's a few more images of her to check out. Enjoy...

It's Dollie Time....

Spring is in the air, school is almost out, so that means it's JM Dance Team portrait time. This year we went back to our traditional style that's we've done over the past 7-8 years. The girls were giddy and excited, as they waited in line for their H&S portraits. Afterwards (during the partner poses) their creative juices began to flow; some did jumps, some bent like pretzels, and some did their best Vogue poses. We all had a fun time and the composite turned out really cool. As always, we'd love to read your comments... Click here to see a short video from the session.... Enjoy...

Miss Natalie...

... will be a senior at Randolph HS next school year. She came to us through a recommendation from our 2012 RHS rep Rebekah (and Mom)... Thanks Gould family. Justing meeting Natalie, the first impression was a delight. She's athletic, has hair to die for, and seems very personable (in an honest, real way). Having big shoes to fill, we think Natalie will be a great rep for us. I'm sure you'll be seeing more of her in the coming year... More images on the site.

Miss Emily...

is one of our 2013 senior reps from JM. She's extremely intelligent, dedicated, driven, and very respectful. I know she'll do a great job for us this coming school year. If you are a friend of Emily's, and want 2013 senior portraits, make sure you ask her for one of her cards... There's a time-sensitive offer on it that you'll benefit from (i.e. save you some $)... Click here to see a few more images of her on our site. Thanks Emily, we look forward to working with you this next year.

Elegant Dancer....

Jacqueleen, pronounced Zjock-Clean, is a senior at JM. I've had the privlege of knowing her for two years now, and one of those years in my class. Jacque is one of those gems that you love to be around. She's very down to earth, caring, creative, and most importantly, very respectful to others. I wish there were more Jacques in the world, it certainly would be a better place. She plans to attend UTSA in the Fall. She doesn't know what she wants to study, but she'll be on the dance team while she's there (that's pretty cool). I guess from the title you get the dance theme. She's a creatively, talented dancer. For such a little person, she can jump, turn, and twist like you wouldn't believe. Of course I love it when we get artistic/athletic seniors. Anyway, we started out in the flowers by the horse stable. Jacque wore this cool halter top, colorful dress. She picked one of our hats that just made it even better (I guess you know by now I'm a hat person). She wanted a Texas theme for all the family back in Cali. We got some great shots there and then moved back to the studio, where we did some ubercool car images. The light was amazing, so we took advantage of it and got some beautiful images of her there. Here dress was so colorful. Knowing she was a dancer, we had to get her in an airborn dance move (see below). We finished up inside with more artistic dance moves and her JM Dance Team attire. Jacqueleen was our last senior for the 2012 senior season, and I must say, there's not anyone better that could've wrapped it up like her. We truly enjoyed the session (even though it went a little longer than expected, Thanks Grandma for your patience). We hope Jacque and family love the images as much as we do... More images on the site, and click here to watch a short video from the session.... Feel free to leave a comment of two..... Enjoy.... ...

Miss Macy...

is a senior at JM. I had the fortune of having her in one of my classes her freshman year. Macy is a funny, determined, and down to earth, young lady. She plays in the band while also being a drum major. She also is a softball player who had the honor of playing in the playoffs the last two years (going the furthest in JM history last year). She plans to attend Texas Tech University in the fall. Macy picked out some outfits that seemed to bring out her best. Of all the outfits, her white dress and softball uniform really brought out her personality. We had a great time and got some really cool images. Macy thanks for choosing CK for your senior portraits, it's always a blessing to have someone that appreciates what we do.
