We are gearing up for our senior season. We have 12 models so far and we will be doing their model shoots starting in 2 weeks. We are still accepting models into our program. Here are a few comments from some models from the Class of 2009.

Stacey Fowler from John Burroughs said:
“Being a model for Nordmann Photography is great! I really enjoyed the photo shoot and Lisa does a great job of making it fun. I love the photos and so do my friends and family. I really look flawless and all of the photos have been amazing. Lisa is great at taking photos and making it not only about the picture but also about you having fun and just enjoying being you. I would encourage anyone to have Nordmann Photography do their senior pictures. It will be even more memorable because you will remember how much fun the shoot was and you will have amazing pictures to show it.”
Megan Nicklaus from Webster Groves High School said:
"A photography session with Lisa is absolutely awesome. The images are new and refreshing. The color are bright and she can make anyone look their best. I had a lot of fun and got to try many different poses. In just one session, you will get many different photographs which makes a moment in your life everlasting. Her passion for photography is shown through her beautiful artwork."

Kimaya Black from MICDS said:
“These pictures are really amazing!! I honestly did not believe that they would come out so well. The experience was great… Lisa you were an amazing photographer that allowed me to have fun and made me feel so good about myself. I think that anyone should definitely work with Lisa because you won’t be let down.

This is what Taylor Seabaugh from John Burroughs had to say:
“I had a great experience at Nordmann Photography. I like my photos and had fun while doing them. Lisa was very creative and easy to work with. She worked hard but made it seem easy.”

I was so excited today to meet and have a mini model shoot with Tiffany from Triad High School. Tiffany is one of our 2010 models. She was so gracious to agree to play in the cold snow. We are so excited that Tiffany is part of the Nordmann Photography Class of 2010 model team.

The search is on! We are looking for fun, energetic, nice kids who like to be photographed from the Class of 2010. We are starting the photo shoots within the next 2 weeks. These images will be used for our Class of 2010 high school photo advertising campaign. You may ask “well what is in it for me?” Well to begin with you will be photographed by one of St. Louis’s top high school senior photographer. You get a free model session and a free senior session. You get free facebook images and a free DVD slide show. You also will be earning discounts on purchases and cash rewards. Who can’t use a little extra cash and a limo to your senior prom? Don’t wait!

I am back from the senior photography seminar in Las Vegas. I had the best time and learned sooooo much. I took classes from the best senior photographers in the nation. This is my 4th year going and it gets better every year. As said in a previous post, I entered in a folio competition. I did not win but placed in the excellent catagory.
Abby Wolff’s was the highest.

And Michael Brodsky was the next highest.

I am always learning and trying to better my craft. Tuesday I am leaving for Indiana to meet with SPA’s (Senior Photographer Artists} top award winning photographers.
One other thing. I did gamble somewhat in Vegas. I won $50 on the penny slots. Do you know how long that takes? I won $20 2 times and I thought the dinging would never end. By the way. You can not put quarters or change in any more. It is all bills and vouchers. I sat at a machine for several minutes trying to put a quarter in a slot. I looked all over for the slot and never found it. Oh Well!

Our 2009 Senior Model Program included a gift from us, a limo to your prom. We have 3 limo winners –
Molly Edwards from Whitfield

Stacey Fowler from John Burroughs

and Kimaya Black from MICDS.

These 3 seniors already earned $100 cash and 20% off of their orders – now the limo – and on target to win another $500 cash prize. We are now accepting applications for our 2010 model program. We are now accepting applications for current juniors who are friendly, outgoing, fun to be around, and love our photography. If you are interested please call us at (314) 783-0300 for an application.

3 wonderful seniors came to our Bluffs studio to have fun in the sun and water. They joined in a Trash the Dress session and an Underwater session. I had so much fun with these 3 beautiful girls. Thank you Ali, Tori and Erica.
Here are two images of Tori underwater.


Erica took a turn underwater.

This past Saturday Jim and Debbie Kiske were kind enough to take me on a boat cruise at their lake. Emily and Jeffrey Kiske were game to let me use them as “senior models” for a new fun session. We are introducing a new “life” session that would include something you love to do. Emily and Jeffrey are great skiers. We had a great time.
Here is Jeffrey showing off his skills. I love his suit coat.


Emily was a little more understated with her black dress.

And Connor the family puppy led us on this wonderful morning.

Congratulations to Kimaya Black. She is our 2nd Class of 2009 $100 winner for points she has earned sending referrals and being a terrific spokesperson and model. Here she is featuring our newest addition to our studio. “THE GARDENS AT NORDMANN PHOTOGRAPHY”. We are offering a SUMMER SPECIAL in our gardens with a FREE SESSION (10 am and 4pm sessions only) through August 29th.

All of our 2009 senior models have an opportunity to win money, get great discounts on their senior photos, and get a limo to their senior prom (compliments of Nordmann Photography.) Leigh Kaiser from MICDS is our 1st $100 winner. Leigh has been a great model and spokesperson for us. Thanks Leigh.
