This is the second year in a row that I have had the privilege of taking the school portraits for Crestwood Day School. The school is attended by my oldest son and run by A Bryan Photo’s own Stephanie Kling. Even though the school continues to grow, I hope that I can continue to contribute this for years to come.

We are so proud to have our friend Stephanie Kling join the A Bryan Photo team. She is the mastermind behind all of our packaging and presentation of prints.

Here’s a few words from Steph:

I’ve known Bryan and Ashley since our college days. Bryan and my husband James became good friends over the years, which had always kept us connected. Now, over 10 years later, my husband and I live across the street from them. We’ve been able to learn what true community feels like and it’s something we never want to lose.

In the last five years, I started a neighborhood school that is currently in its fifth year. One of the best part of my days is being and learning alongside these children, one of which is Bryan’s oldest child, Noah. Along with running and teaching at our school, I joined the ABP team last summer to help with their packaging and presentation. As long as I can remember, I’ve always had a love for beautiful presentation – whether that’s in the way I decorate my home, prepare a meal for friends, or wrap a gift. I’m drawn to simplicity, paying attention to details, and thoughtfulness. In my work with A Bryan Photo, I hope to portray that in the packages that we send out each week. I’m excited to share more about my love for packaging and presentation with you in the coming year.
