We are holding a contest to see who among our brides, groom and portrait clients can describe in words the most cherished photo we have produced for you and why you love it so much.

Describe the photo (the image number would probably be helpful, too) or email a copy of the picture to us with your description of why the photo is so important to you.

The testimonial we find the most moving and inspiring will be the winner!

The session could be almost anything you like. It could be a family, pet, maternity, high school senior or baby portrait. The portrait session can be 1 to 3 hours in length and must take place in the Greater Kansas City area. We know a lot of you don’t live here, but you may be visiting the area at some point, so we may an opportunity to do it then.

Mother’s Day is coming so the session can be transferred as a gift for mom (or someone else) and she can arrange a portrait session with us of her choosing!

Hurry! Contest entries will be accepted until May 3! The sessions must be scheduled within one year of the announcement of the winner.

Thanks, your photographer
Chris Cummins

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

“I find that the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor -”
