"Danelle Sharp"

My daughter, Alexus, was fortunate to have her senior pictures taken by Brian from Smyer Image. The experience was so fun from start to finish. Brian put Lex to ease quickly, took the time to listen to what we were looking for, and then made it happen seamlessly. As I watched the session unfold, I could literally see Brian's artistic eye and the camera working together. Alexus and I were extremely pleased with the photographs and will enjoy seeing them on the walls for years to come. Thank you so much Smyer Image!
