Kenneth Mitchell

I have been a photographer for 30+ years, most of those years as a photojournalist. I have recently been branching out into studio and location portraiture and modeling photography.

I tend to have more of an "over the top" approach to shooting & post processing, I favor the slicker, high-glam look.

I have a small professional studio with state-of-the-art lighting system and professional camera equipment, located in a public office building complex in Edina, MO. I have enough lighting equipment to do a four-set shoot simultaneously, so I have plenty of back-up equipment if problems should arise.

I am looking to work with male and female models both. Right now I am building my portfolio, my eventual goal is to do a lot of stock photography using models (handshakes, corporate, etc.) and glamor photography.

Please contact anybody from MM in my Credits list for information about me and references.

I am a master scuba diver / cave diver with extensive underwater photography experience and your are probably not going to find too many people who are better at shooting underwater in this part of the country, so if you are wanting to do some underwater work hit me up.

You are totally welcome to have a third party in the room (you are welcome to choose who that person is... best friends work nicely for this, somebody you can trust to adjust your clothing or move those runaway hair strands back into position) for your peace of mind. Escorts? Not a problem, unless that escort is the jealous boyfriend type or somebody who stomps around impatiently wondering when we are done. We are done the first time the person stomps and asks, even if that means you get less pictures taken. Normal, civil escorts who realize the purpose of everybody being there is to take pictures are completely welcome. I am 48 years old, but I am not a dirty old man nor am I a creep. My job is to make YOU look good, not to try to cop a feel.

One more thing: although I am in no way putting down anybody that does nude shoots, I don't shoot nudes. I am not morally opposed to it, but I just really like making people look good with their clothing on... it's my thing.
