Palmyra Nebraska Portrait Photographer | Kaleb | Palmyra High School | Southeast Nebraska High School Senior Photos

Kaleb Kempkes of Palmyra, Nebraska

What a fun short and sweet guy senior session for his photos! It was a solid 40 degrees out and we all agreed we’ll make this session go as quickly as possible so we wouldn’t suffer the cold temps. I think we can all agree, Kaleb, his mom, and myself all felt cold fingers but still laughed and got through the chilly fall session with just chilly noses to show afterwards.

Kaleb is attending Palmyra High School in Palmyra, Nebraska and is part of the Class of 2020. His plans include basketball in college and I’m totally excited to see which school he chooses! He’s had plenty of offers and with his talent and love of basketball, I know he’ll be the perfect asset to any team he chooses!

For Kaleb’s session we wanted to include farm elements since his family is farm based and also includes cattle in their operations. I think what I loved most was hearing about all the cute dairy cattle they also work with! We choose a few fun elements like bale feeders to represent the cattle as well as sitting on an iron fence line for the cattle lot with cattle laying in the background. It’s a fun and unique way to incorporate their family into the photos.

We also used a beautiful red barn as well as sunny dirt roads and of course, hay bales. I loved that we zipped over the the dirt road to take photos because we took the theme of basketball and added our own twist to it!
