YOU'RE NOT ORDINARY—WHY SHOULD YOUR SENIOR PORTRAITS BE?
Experience. Authenticity. Creativity.
The Crystal Image is a full-service portrait studio dedicated to creating imagery that showcases your inner (and outer) beauty. I work to capture the true essence of the person—not just take their picture. Our studio is quite different from others you may have been to.
With more than 17 years of experience as a professional photographer, I have worked with hundreds and hundreds of high school seniors, so I’m accustomed to (and enjoy!) working with all personality types. Are you shy and weirded out by the idea of having pictures taken? That’s okay! I’ll talk you through it and make it super easy. Are you super outgoing and want to give your input on every detail? That’s okay too. Our pre-session consultations are there for that very reason. We want you to LOVE your images—and the experience.
Secondly, we actually have a studio location. A large, glorious location that is temperature controlled year round (cause it’s Kansas you all, and we know how crazy the Kansas weather can be), and overflowing with props and backdrops (like I might have a backdrop addiction. True story). But we also have endless outdoor locations that we take advantage of too.
And thirdly, we offer a gorgeous array of products that provide something for everyone. From custom designed albums and books to stunning canvas wall portraits, we’re here to guide you through the process from start to finish.
The Crystal Image. More than just pretty pictures.
THE LATEST ON THE GRAM

"Both myself and Hailei are passionate about photography—I think it is important. You just can't compare getting images on a CD to receiving a finished product. Crystal goes above and beyond to learn about your personality, your ideas and to find locations that looked like what we were wanting; she really gets the client involved and gives them good feedback. The most important thing to me, honestly, was that Hailei was happy with her senior portraits. I wanted her to be comfortable and feel like she was being listened too—and she did.
I love Hailei's pictures. Seeing your child be so happy with the process and with the outcome is awesome. Working with Crystal is such a personalized experience. We were happy with the whole process. I would definitely do it all over again!"
