I am a professional photographer & creative director based out of Kansas City.

 

My specialty? The ability to transform any scene into something magical using what I call 'the layering effect '. I engage with my subjects to capturing personality all while considering the necessary elements required to create powerful portraits and tell inspiring stories.

 

I'd love to discuss how I can effectively help you create intentional branding and emotional advertising campaigns.

I have a vision.

 

And I won't stop until I've properly seen it through.

F.A.Q

frequently asked questions

How do I Prepare?

 

We'll send over a style guide full of tips, advice and inspirational ideas to help you plan. Additionally, we'll help narrow ideas if you're overwhelmed with making a decision.

 

Most importantly, you'll want to choose colors, props and clothing that represents you, your business and your lifestyle.

 

 

Who are your clients?

Our clients are busy people who appreciate art, style and quality time with loved ones. They see professional photography as an opportunity to promote themselves in a powerful way and trust we'll make that happen.

 

Most of all they want more than a boring head shot... they want to illustrate their business with great imagery that sells itself.

How quickly will I receive my images?

Good news! Proofs ready for selection within 5 business days

Do you provide direction?

Being told to 'smile & say cheese' doesn't yield natural results. When working with professionals and other small businesses, I've developed a way of working that combines posed and candid photos.

 

I'll provide gentle guidance where needed, but I'll also step back and let you be yourself.

Useage Fees & Rights?

Useage fees apply when images are used to make a profit.

 

These fees are based on the size of the campaign & company. Full buy-outs are available.

 

Preparing Employee's for Headshots

We routinely provide headshots to companies updating employee headshots.

 

Ask for our style guide to send out to your employees.

FAQ Photography Kansas City

Interviewed by John McManus, images by Melissa Slater with Bee Posh

 

Q :: You graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design more than a decade ago, what do you know about yourself as an artist now verses back then… when you were fresh out of college?

 

Adrienne :: I can’t believe it’s already been 15 years! Ha. That puts it into perspective. I’ve loved and lost.. that’s for sure.

 

Honestly, I am still learning about myself ‘the artist’ every single day. When I was ‘fresh’, I knew nothing and I fell in love fast. Perspective is something earned; only gained after many mistakes and a lot of trial and error.

Ultimately, the trials of life make us who we are.

It’s hard to know who you’ll become at 22. Learning to become a mother has changed me in ways I can’t begin to fully describe. But I can seen it throughout the evolution of my work. I can see all of the fundamental changes that I’ve undergone. It’s all there, just beneath the surface.

The stories of everyday life influences me. Every day is different. First thing upon waking, you don’t know what will unfold by day’s end.

Although there is one thing has not changed and that, my friend, is my love of creating beautiful images!
