Upgrade Your Photo Day
The "School Photo Day" is a beloved tradition, but the traditional process has some details that we've changed up and improved upon with our own unique approach.
When parents express dissatisfaction with their chlid's school photos, they often center around a lack of photo choices, a lack of interest or attention to detail from the photographer, and a lack in overall value for what they pay. We aim to address all of those concerns with our approach.
Traditional Method | Our Approach |
|---|---|
Often inexperienced photographers | Veteran photographers |
One small, restrictive backdrop | 2 large backdrops |
1 photo per child | 4+ photos per child with multiple poses |
Editing touch-ups cost extra for parents | Editing touch-ups are included |
Turnaround time: 3+ weeks | Turnaround time: 3-7 days |
Payment often taken before viewing images | Payment after viewing photos |
Siblings require separate orders | Sibling photos can be combined into one order |
Large corporation with no direct communication | Local company with direct access to owner |
Indoor only photos | Optional outdoor photos for small schools |

Meet Bonnie
My name is Bonnie, and I'm the owner and lead photographer of Genesis Photography.
I grew up in central Kansas, and my first love was Track & Field. If I couldn't become a professional Track athlete, my "fall back" career was going to be Photography. Needless to say, here I am. :)
I established Genesis Photography in 2015, and I've been focused on children from the beginning. From newborns, to children, to families, I've loved every bit of it.
Life is too short, am I right? We currently have a 13 year old daughter and 6 year old son. I'm pretty sure if I blink, they'll be all grown up, and that terrifies me. I'm constantly worried that I'll look back and realize I didn't record our life enough. Photography helps me with that, and I hope it can help you too.
Thank you for visiting my site, and please contact me with any questions! I look forward to working with you. <3
