Jaime Michaelree
Photographer

Jaime has been interested in photography her whole life.  She has been shooting pictures professionally since 1993 and began shooting weddings in 1996.  Jaime also worked in retail photo for 14 years and was a photo lab manager for 10 of those years. 

Jaime and her husband, Kevin, have two children,  a girl and a boy, both of whom she obviously loves to photograph.  "I enjoy photographing children the most," Jaime said.  "They always surprise me with their expressions."

 

She also enjoys wedding photography.  "I like getting to know the two families and watch them become one family," she said.

 

Jaime also has experience shooting senior pictures and family portraits.

 

"The goal for all is to have fun in whatever we are doing," she said. "When everyone is relaxed and having fun, it makes for a better photographic experience and product."

Frank Hansel
Photographer

Frank began his photography career in 1989 on the newspaper side after his graduation from the University of Kansas. He developed his love of shooting sports action while working for small newspapers, where he was honored National Newspaper Association for sports coverage at a weekly newspaper.

In the mid 1990s, Frank was mentored by a studio photographer in Shawnee, Kansas. He was an assistant photographer on weddings and other portrait shootings before he began photographing his own weddings and portraits in the late 1990s.

The advent of digital photography in the early 2000s brought Frank back to his first love in photography - sports, and now he and KC Imagemakers team up with area youth leagues and high schools to produce action and team photography for parents and fans.

Frank and his wife, Beth, celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary last April. The little girl in their lives right now is Flo, a retired greyhound racer they adopted from The Woodlands Pups Without Partners Program. Frank also owns one racing greyhound - Dr. Vinnyboombah, who is racing in Ebro, Fla.
