Jim Powers – Wedding Photographer
Jim Powers developed a passion for photography later in life with the birth of his now 7 year old son. An image of the newborn son at age 3 minutes hooked him and has never let him go. Graduating from baby pics to senior pics to family portraits to sports and such, Jim found that he thoroughly enjoyed weddings and has been making images at weddings for over 5 years. From the emotion laden moments to the details in the flowers, Jim tries to capture it all. His style is probably best characterized as “observant” and he tries to be “in the wings” as the event unfolds and anticipate and capture the moments as they occur. Jim has a successful day job and does wedding photography because he enjoys it. For him, it’s a matter of “want to.” Let him put his enthusiasm for wedding photography to work for you.

Todd Bray – Wedding Photographer
Todd started out as an illustration major with no intention on becoming a photographer. It was only about necessity to pick out the camera, mainly just to document his portfolio. Soon it only seemed natural to use composition, colors and shapes through the camera. With this new tool it became easy to find jobs various “corporate” portrait studios. Now with a huge background in portrait photography, Todd attended the Kansas City Art Institute and received his Bachelor’s of Fine Arts. In addition to his work with Barrett Graphics, Todd also runs his own freelance photography business located in Lenexa, Kansas.
