VanDeusen Photography

Earlier this month I had the honor of photographing the wedding of Stacy and Santos. 
Stacy came to our studio because of her groom’s mother, Juanita.  We had photographed
her wedding in the past.  Stacy and Santos got married (on one of the warm days this
month) at St Agnes Catholic Church.  Afterward we went to a local park for
some outdoor photography, then on to the reception.  I could tell that the couple is well
loved by their family and friends.   Here’s to you Stacy and Santos…we wish you as many
years of happiness as your parents before you.

Babies and Children magazine recently had a contest looking for KC’s beautiful children.
Congratulations to the winner Bogan and Colin.  We were lucky to photograph
these two very adorable boys.

 

I just had an art opening on July 11th, in conjunction with Kansas City Parks and Recreation.
The show was entitled “Swope Park, A Photographic Essay”.  It depicts the nature and wildlife
in Swope Park. 

I was also making a photographic statement on the misuse of our park with a
photo collage of prints showing clutter and trash left in the park.  I hope visitors to the parks
will take notice and stop leaving behind trash.  It’s your choice!

 

There was a large cross section of guests including K.C. Parks board member and commissioner
Aggie Stackhouse and Frank McMillan (no relation that we are aware), a publisher of an online
natural resource guide and newsletter.  Visit his website at WindingRiver.com.

 

Also attending were family, friends, neighbors, artists, and other photographers, all friends of the community.  We had great treats provided by Sweet Treats by Shannon.

 

 

To see the images in person, visit Kansas City’s new Southeast Community Center in Swope
Park now through September 11th.  The address is 4201 E 63rd Street, KCMO.  You can
