Mom & Me Portrait Special



Just to clarify, Our Mom and Me sessions don't have to include a small child. It can also be a generational shot like we did for our friend Lori Haxton and her mother and daughter.

This Mother's Day, we want to bring awareness to moms who have been abused emotionally, physically, and sexually. Help us help Victim Support Services.

On May 8th from 10am-5pm we are offering a Mom & Me Portrait Session for $125! The package includes an 8x10,2-4x6s, and 8 wallets. Gift certificates are also available.

You can book your appointment by clicking on the "Book Now" button, Schedule Now
or you can call the studio 660-665-2363. Payment for the session is required up front, so have a credit/debit card ready. We accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.

Dylan & Grant Kinney | Children Session

Our friends Dylan and Grant are busy little guys. By busy, I mean they can't be still for very long. But the day of their photo shoot, they both morphed into such professionals.

Here are some of my favorite shots.

Denise P. | KHS Senior 2009

Denise graduated from KHS in December but didn't get around to having her senior pictures done until now. She proves it's never too late to get them done!

Here are some of my favorites from her session.

8th Commandment | Thou shalt not steal



Intellectual property (IP) refers to creations of the mind: inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce.

It's been brought to my attention that there are several aspiring photographers who are using my photographs to generate their own business. Competition is great, but stealing is not so great. My ideas, poses, and photo locations are called "intellectual property" and are protected under copyright laws.

If you are a photographer with a business in the Kirksville area, please, please, please refrain from using my photographs as your inspiration. Studio 1004 clients are everywhere and are watching for intellectual property infringements. Legal action can and will be taken to protect my art and my business.

If you are a potential client who likes our pictures but not our prices, asking another photographer to do something "similar" is also a violation of intellectual property, let alone immoral. So, please do not copy my work or ask someone to copy.

For more information about intellectual property, visit the World Intellectual Property Organization website.

If you would like to understand more about copyright infringement, visit Professional Photographers of America.

Pet Love | Adair Co Humane Society

Thanks to our Pet Love portrait special, we were able to raise $175 for the Adair County Humane Society.

We dropped off the check today to Missy Decker at the Adair County Humane Society. She was so happy! "That will pay for a lot of spaying and neutering," she said.

If you would like to adopt a pet, make a donation or volunteer, call them at 660.665.8038

Lexie Schuermann | Watch Me Grow Graduate!

It's hard to believe that we've been photographing our little friend Lexie for a year now. Lexie's first year of life was documented through our Watch Me Grow program. Looking back on her pictures it's amazing to see how she changed from session to session.

Here are some of my favorite shots from her 1-year session and her slideshow.
