Bio: "Kim Stiffler is a portrait photographer from Wichita, KS. She began her career as a photographer in 2013, and at first tried a little bit of everything. She is also a second grade teacher, and does photography on the side, hoping to retire soon, and do photography full time. When she first started photography, she thought she would love shooting children until she started shooting seniors. She fell in love at once and has never looked back. She loves building community with her spokesmodels, and loves connecting and getting to know each senior. As a teacher, she wondered if she would miss impacting lives of students, but has found that she can also have a huge impact as a photographer. Helping girls see their beauty and worth is her passion. "
Winning Image 1: "This was from Shelley's senior session. She is one of my spokesmodels, and has a flair for fashion. She loves coffee, so we went to Reverie Roasters in Wichita. She also brought her cute dog to her session, so we just incorporated all of it! Makeup is by Brooke Cero. "
Winning Image 2: "This was a concept shoot for me to just be creative. Shelley is one of my spokesmodels, and on her questionnaire she said she wanted to be a pilot, and she also danced for 12 years. I knew I somehow wanted to incorporate this into the concept. Hardy Aviation let us use one of their planes for the shoot. We also incorporated some other looks into the plane session as well. Makeup by Damen Page."
