Making a Splash - Photographer in Columbia Missouri

Everyone, meet Ryan! Ryan is a fun-loving outdoors-man, athlete, future surgeon, big brother and son. He is PATIENT. That is the quality that stands out most when I think of the day we did his shoot. It may have been the hottest day of the summer. Not kidding. Remember that week when the news was basically like if you go outside, you will die?? That was when we shot these. Not only that, but we also asked him to wear a full suit for some of his portraits. Sorry Ryan!! It was so worth it though!

He got a little relief from the heat when we were able to shoot some insane swim portraits at the pool! Ryan is a student athlete that stays busy non-stop throughout the year. Right now he has early morning practice with one team, school, then evening practice with another team. That is some serious commitment! There's no question he has the drive to be a surgeon. He's basically keeping resident hours already! :)
