Multi-talented Katherine | Kansas City Portrait Photographer

April 28, 2015


I had so much fun shooting with this multi-talented girl. Before the session, we brainstormed the concept of this session for a while, and I decided to focuses on her talents. We shot at the beautiful historical Liberty downtown. While waiting for my session, I took pictures of Huey’s on the Square and Clay County Historical Museum. It was my first time meeting Katherine. I was very impressed with all her talents, including her skills to style her outfits, doing her own makeup, and her hair. Her parents were with us during the session and I really enjoyed talking to them while Katherine was changing outfits. Her dad helped us watching traffic while we took a shot of Katherine dancing in the middle of Main St. At the end of the session, we saw some pink spring flowers on the street. Katherine asked her dad to take a photo of the flowers, and I secretly snapped a shot of that action. How could I not take a photo of the flower tree? Glad I had my telephoto lens, so yes I took a couple photos of the crab apple tree. After the session, I interviewed Katherine online because I wanted to know her more. I would like to share this interview below with more audience.

Katherine is a 14 year old from Liberty, MO, where she lives with her mom and dad, brother (when he’s not away at college), and a crazy dog and cat. Overall, Katherine loves all things performing arts (music, singing, dancing, acting, etc.), and has an interest in fashion.

Katherine is very talented at many instruments, although her main instrument is piano. She started taking piano from a teacher at a young age, and has now played at Christmas events, small art gallery showings, the worship band at church, and her school’s jazz band. Other instruments she plays include ukulele (4 years), guitar (1 year), and she played violin for 3 years but recently stopped to focus on other activities more, one of those activities being dance. Katherine started taking dance about a year and a half ago, taking classes in ballet, jazz, and hip hop. Katherine continues to take jazz and hip hop at CODE.

Katherine has been singing as long as she can remember. Starting as just a little girl singing along with pop tunes, Katherine is now studying solo soprano material with a voice teacher and competing in singing contests. She also enjoys singing in musicals, and with the church worship band. Also, Katherine has been writing songs since she was five years old. Katherine’s first compositions were simple and very short, but have now grown into full length songs. Working under the direction of a composition teacher, she has also written an orchestral arrangement for a string orchestra. Katherine develops her compositions on piano initially, which she learned at the age of seven.

In school, Katherine loves theater and choir class. She is also interested in the speech/debate/competitive theater class.

Additionally, Katherine performs in plays and musicals with her school mostly. Katherine began acting on stage at the age of 6, and hopes to continue acting for some time. Once she gets older, Katherine aspires to have a big career in singing, but also would be interested in doing something in photography, or anything else in the performing arts category. 2015-04-19_0001.jpg 2015-04-19_0002.jpg 2015-04-19_0003.jpg 2015-04-19_0004.jpg 2015-04-19_0005.jpg 2015-04-19_0006.jpg 2015-04-19_0007.jpg Bokeh Story Photos On Location Session with Katherine Vlamis
