Hailey: Graduate Session

Monday, May 24, 2010

"I never thought I'd have this much fun getting senior pictures!" There’s no greater compliment than to hear these words from our senior clients and their parents when a photo session is complete. Word of mouth has been good to us, and as we head into a new summer season we thought it would be ...

People always ask us, “What does it take to have a successful photo studio? Is it the camera? The lenses? Fancy software?” Nope, nope and nope. The key ingredient to being successful is to simply have an abundance of awesome clients. Case in point: Mike, Renée, Zach and Gavin.

portfolio business cards

We’re crazy about business cards. Sure they have our phone number and other important contact info; but as photographers, each business card is a tiny, portable portfolio.

Russell Russ Keberly

It’s safe to say that we’re our own worst clients. After two hectic years of scheduling shoots, taking photos and fulfilling orders we finally managed to get some decent portraits of ourselves. That being said, you may already know some members of Keberly Photography (certainly Russ “The Mayor” Keberly) but we’d like to take a moment ...

The best part of composing a senior picture shoot is finding that right location we feel captures the personalities of our clients. We pride ourselves on scouring the metro area for new ideas, and often find ourselves throughout the course of our daily routines spotting eccentric locations for potential photo sessions. Sometimes the most usable backdrops ...
