Shalei | McPherson High School Senior 2014 Model

I have been wanting to have a portrait session at the Kansas State Fair for a while now, and was excited when Shalei answered my model call. We arrived at the midway early Saturday morning before the rides were open and before the summer heat hit. I am ecstatic about how these turned out. Just like I have envisioned. Thank you again for modeling for me!

Liz | McPherson Kansas Photographer

Liz is a dear friend of mine and I was blessed to be allowed to take a few photos for her new running career. Liz had her leg amputated as a result of a pregnancy complication, but she’s never let it hold her down. Now, she is the current US record holder for 5000 meters by a T44 female amputee. Congratulations Liz and I can’t wait to see how you do in Rio at the Paralympics. You are an inspiration!
