Hiya, I'm Kendra Kempen
Hi, I'm Kendra Kempen
Owner of Portraits By Kendra K. I've been photographing families and seniors/graduates in Shreveport since 2024.
When my dad passed away, I realized something that changed everything for me—photos weren’t just images, they were the only tangible pieces of him we had left. Each one held a memory, a feeling, a story I never wanted our family to lose again.
Before photography, I earned a degree in music education and spent years as a stay-at-home mom, supporting my husband’s Air Force career and raising our girls. That season taught me just how quickly life moves—and how important it is to hold onto the moments that matter.
What I love most is seeing my clients experience their memories in a real, lasting way. Not buried in a phone, but displayed on their walls—where they can relive those moments every single day.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me cheering on my daughters, Aubrey and Sophie, spending time with my husband Ben, or traveling together as a family. I’m proud to be part of a community that truly supports small businesses and shows up for one another—and giving back is my way of doing the same.

Here's What I Donate to Community Auctions:
01
Professional Design
Consultation
Professional Design Consultation
I meet with the family in their home first to measure wall spaces and plan wardrobes. We design a plan for wall artwork to fit their home's specific style before the photo session.
02
The Cinematic Reveal
The family sees their portraits for the first time on a cinema-sized screen at their ordering appointment. It's an emotional, celebrated event where I guide them through the selection process so they're never overwhelmed.
03
Finished Heirloom Art
I handle every detail from concept to final delivery. The winner receives finished, museum-quality artwork ready to be enjoyed on their walls, not files that get stuck on a hard drive.
Because of this full-service approach, the donation from Portraits By Kendra K typically earns the organization $300–$1,000+. This helps the organization reach its fundraising goals faster.
