Meet Walter Kraus, our 2011 Client of the Year!  Mr. Kraus was born in Germany in 1920, and came to America at age 5, settling in Newport, Kentucky. In 1938 he graduated from NCC, and enlisted in the Navy. He volunteered for the Submarine Service, where he went on 11 missions. He now is the incoming President of the U.S. Submarine Veterans group, now 800 strong.
Walter came to us  to have his official Presidential portrait created, and it was an honor to photograph him in three different uniforms. I learned so much about his life and what it was like on a submarine during the war. At 90 years young Walter told me stories about his life that sounded like they happened last year. Can you imagine being born in Germany, and as a young man going to war against your birth country?
Following our sessions Walter brought me some of his photos as a young man to be restored. I loved seeing him light up as he told stories from the times the old photos were taken.
 
Thanks for allowing me to create your portraits, Ensign Kraus, It was truly an honor!
