“Am I making the right choice?”

You try on a pair of jeans before you buy them. You listen to the preview on the iTunes store before you download the song.

You know what a Big Mac tastes like before you order one.

But choosing your senior photographer is different. First, you’ve never done it before.

And even if you have older siblings who’ve had their pictures taken already, you still don’t know what your portraits will look like.

Is Tim a creative genius?

No, he’s just a guy who’s passionate about making you look your very best.

He’s older than dirt...

Tim has owned and operated Uphoff Studio since 1988. In that time he has photographed thousands of seniors—maybe even your parents!

...but WAY younger than he looks.

Tim’s photography remains fresh and creative because he is constantly evolving and improving his photography to stay in the very forefront of what’s going on in senior portraiture. He is a leader, not a follower, and his work shows it.

He makes being photographed easy.

Most seniors are amazed at how relaxed and laid back their session was, and how totally tuned-in he was to them.

His focus is on you—he does all the work, while you relax and have more fun than you could ever imagine. Call for your appointment today!

....and once you’re in front of his camera you’ll know why.

Orrrin Keown - Okaw Valley H.S.

Knowing how to make you look good in a portrait requires a large collection of technical skills. It also requires a mastery of the art of making you feel comfortable and relaxed during your session. This is a gift that few photographers take the time to develop as Tim has. You’ll love his style!
