Let me introduce myself.
My name is Tommy Peterson. No middle initial. The "H" is for Holly my wife and she used to be a lot more hands on when I first started our business so we included her initial in there but I'm happy to still have her name represented.
I want to share my photo because with the initials, a lot of sessions we show up and people think they were talking to a woman the whole time lol
So here I am! Your photographer.
27 years full time portrait photographer experience
Originally from the bayous of Louisiana but I LOVE kansas, its my home
I don't have many hobbies. I love my family, love spending time with my kids and genuinely feel thankful and excited to go to work everyday.
I am very introverted and shy. I have always been that way. But I have learned to ignore it in order to get the job done. Main reason I love having outgoing assistants with me.
Lighting is the most important and exciting part of my job.
Parents always tell me, hope you are still doing photography when my child becomes a senior.... yeah me too!
There isn't a food I won't eat or music I won't listen to. Even if I'm not a huge fan I can always find something interesting in both of those.
I watch the same movies over and over. Back to the future, kingpin, chef, reign of fire are some of my all time favorites.
Lastly, no favorite color. I love them all. But if I had to pick one, if you forced me, i'd say orange.
