Watch out Kansas City. Raising Cane's is here to stay!

On Memorial Day, I photographed the Kansas City area Raising Cane's all company picnic. Crew members from four area restaurants came together to celebrate the holiday. Raising Cane's closes its doors on every major holiday so employees can spend time with family and friends. For Memorial Day, they sponsored a national company picnic, so stores from all over the nation gathered together on the same day. Several stores from the KC and Lawrence area were represented here at Heritage Park in Olathe, and there are more restaurants popping up all over the city! Here are just a few photos from the day.

I took photos of this house recently. On the first day, there were 24 showings and 6 offers made. The house went for over asking price! Looking for a realtor? Shiela Ogden, Better Homes and Garden, is the best, and her photographer is pretty nice, too!

Every Mother's Day they ask me the same question. And every Mother's Day I give them the same answer, which is met with moans and groans. This year, though, the kids gave in and let me do a family photo shoot. They must really have been desperate to find me a gift!!

Once again, photography helped introduce me to something new — the world of disc golf. At least I knew better than to call the round things a Frisbee, but I still had no idea how involved disc golf can be. People carried bags bigger than my camera bag, and that's saying a lot!! Apparently, each disc does something different than the one before it.

We had a beautiful day for the first ever Rosedale Disc de Triomphe Disc Golf Tournament sponsored by the Rosedale Development Association. This area is being revitalized, and the Rosedale Development Association is right in the middle of it all.

Last fall, I had the privilege of photographing students at Frank Rushton Elementary School when working with another studio. This school was oozing with pride as the students and faculty worked in their newly renovated school. It is a gorgeous facility, and it is in the heart of Rosedale.

Back to the issue at hand. Disc Golf. Rosedale Development Association sponsored its first-ever disc golf tourney, and I was asked to photograph the special occasion. Here are a few of the photos from the event. Participants - you can find more images here.
