Brady's Mom reached out to me looking for senior pictures in Springfield, MO for her son. I had shot her daughter Jane's senior pictures a few years back and was delighted to capture another member of their family. 

For Brady's session we talked through what kind of things he likes and some options for locations. We settled on one look at Lake Springfield, and did two urban/downtown looks. Which look is your favorite?

This past weekend I shot senior photos in Springfield, MO for Sydney at Nathanial Greene. What I love about that park is that every season it's like a completely different park as the landscape shifts through the seasons. There are also tons of places to take pictures there. Sydney choose a 3 look photoshoot and wanted them all shot at the park. The park was in full bloom and an excellent background for her.

Medical Illustrator | Cover Art for The Journal of Infectious Diseases

2/1/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
This project starts my journey into being a Medical Illustrator, and I'm excited for where the type of projects this is going to be adding to my creative pipeline. Creating this cover art for The Journal of Infectious Diseases was a really neat process. 

The agency I'm working with sent me several reference images, as well as previous covers of the journal as a jumping off point. The reference images included the various kinds of bacteria and viruses they wanted included, as well as an example of what the people in the image would be doing. They wanted a female doctor and patient and for the doctor to be doing the test swab in the illustration. 

I created my initial sketch with a few different variations and they narrowed the sketch down to this final version (see below) to go onto the next round.
Picture
They had also sent me an image I illustrated for the Springfield Daily Citizen's series on Domestic Violence - they like the style I did that illustration in and wanted this illustration in that similar style. Since I like to experiment and create in multiple styles of illustration, it's always helpful to know which the client wants. 

For the fully fleshed out, in color version I also created several with slight variations for them to choose from. After just one small round of revisions, this is the final version that was approved for publication.

I love creating High School Senior Portrait Sessions in Springfield MO and Gabe's session was no exception. Gabe chose to do 3 looks. For the first look, we shot at Ellis Hall on the MSU campus. Gabe is a talented musician - I love when we can find creative and artistic ways to represent who you are and what this time in your life looks like. Ellis Hall provided some really cool opportunities with lighting and architecture.

For the second and third looks, Gabe was interested in leaning into 90's fashion, bright colors, and two outdoor style (nature vs industrial). He has great style and I loved each of the looks he came up with.

This session was shot over 4 hours and 3 locations, I then edited the photos and delivered them in a Web-Size and Print-Size digital album the next day (over 300 photos). My turnaround time does vary depending on what all is on my plate but it's never more than 1 week. 

High School Senior Portrait Sessions in Springfield, MO are currently priced at $150 per look/location. We shoot until we all feel confident we have lots of great options. If you are looking for a more creative, artistic, editorial-style photographer for you or your Senior, don't hesitate to reach out!

Medical Illustration | RSV Webinar Promo for Medical Laboratory Observer

1/19/2024

June 2024 Update: Proud to announce that this illustration was a Gold Award Aster Award Winner!  The Aster Awards is the nation's most elite competition dedicated to recognizing the most talented healthcare marketing professionals for outstanding excellence in advertising, marketing and communications.

Recently, I have been staying booked and busy with all kinds of graphic design and illustration work. This has been nice because it's been freezing outside, so staying in and working by the fireplace while sipping coffee, pups at my feet, warm blankets all around me....well, it's a Taurus Dream!

There has been postcards, banners and newsletter designs for the Springfield Art Museum, logos and branding for a new company, newsletter design with playlist creation and writing for a friend's incredible lamp company, and a slew of medical illustrations for Medavera. 

When I was younger and pursuing a career in acting, my dream job was to play a doctor on a successful, long running tv show like Grey's Anatomy. While I never got there - I did get to play a "holistic healer" on an episode of I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant (lol). Then, I got a job writing plastic surgery blogs which I did for 9 years until my boss was arrested for hiring a hit man to kill a former employee. Anyway, all this to say, from growing up as the daughter of a Pharmacist, to being a candy stripe hospital volunteer, to my own searches to figure out answers for my chronic health issues...the medical field has never been far from view. So, I love that I can now use my illustration skills to contribute to the medical field. 

For this project, the client needed an illustration to promote their Webinar on RSV. They had a quick turnaround, so we didn't start with a sketches or have multiple rounds of revisions. It was a 2 day turnaround. The image was to include RSV bacteria, testing materials, and the two most vulnerable subjects for RSV. This is what I came up with. What do you think?
