For the past twenty years, Missouri State University’s Photographic Society has made it a mission to give the residents of the Missouri Hotel the gift of free holiday family portraits.

Members of the Photo Society will set up a holiday-themed portrait session for the families living at the Missouri Hotel and as the organization’s gift to the residents, each family will receive and 8″x10″ photo as well as several wallet-sized photos so that they can have a family portrait that they otherwise might not be able to have.

Photo Society is a student organization that values giving back to the community while giving students an opportunity to gain hands on experience in the art of taking studio portraits.

This mission has been very successful and continues to do so. It has also received great appreciation from different news channels like KSPR, KY3 and Ozarks First. You can also email Jessica for more information at Jessica889@live.missouristate.edu.
