It's your senior year! This year will be full of learning, growing, planning, spending time with friends, and making memories that will stay with you forever. This is one of the best times of your life, so soak it all in, enjoy every twist and turn, and let me help you preserve this exciting time for you in your senior portraits.

My goal as your photographer is to capture YOU. Your personality, your interests, what makes you different. I intend to show you the best version of yourself, and help you breeze through senior year with confidence.

WELCOME TO SENIOR YEAR | YOUR STORY STARTS HERE



Your Senior Year - Captured in Photos & Film



When is the best time to take senior portraits?

Sign up with your email below to get the guide on the best time for senior portraits.

My passion and specialty is High School Senior Portraits. I love working with teens as they discover who they are, begin planning their futures, setting ambitious goals, and making it happen. Senior year and graduation may be a bittersweet time for parents, but I'm here to capture these last moments of your child before they take all that you've taught them and go on to become amazing, independent young adults. These sessions are meant to celebrate your senior and YOU for this great accomplishment.

Photos have the ability to stop time and illustrate the story of a person’s life. But there’s just something about video that opens up possibilities to tell that story in an entirely different way. The Senior Photo + Film Session is for those who want to focus their session on telling a story with moving pictures, capturing those elusive “in-between” moments and expressions that are difficult to do justice to in a photograph alone, showcasing talents and hobbies, visiting your favorite places and doing your favorite things. What does your story look like?

The Photo + Film Session

Professional Hair and Makeup Styling, Multiple Locations & Wardrobe Changes.

Starting at $3500

What comes next?

  • We’ll start with a phone call introduction to get to know more about you and match you to the best portrait experience for your needs. We’ll talk about what your dream session looks like, who you want to include for this special occasion, what kinds of activities or hobbies or themes might we be able to incorporate, what kind of style and locations appeal to you, how you like to enjoy your final images, and the ideal time of year for your session. We can have your session booked by the end of the call!

  • A few weeks before your session, we’ll meet in person and use the notes from our initial call to dive deep and create and finalize plans that will enable us to bring your vision to life. I will help you choose the wardrobe, makeup, and hairstyles that reflect your personal style, and match those choices with the perfect locations.

  • My favorite part! Hopefully yours too! Pro tip: Don't be nervous. I've been photographing all kinds of seniors for years, so I know what angles and poses will make you look your best....and which ones to avoid. Take it from someone who is not a natural in front of the camera, the right photographer makes all the difference.

  • After your session, we will meet back in person so you can see all of the photos and order your favorites in digital and print! We’ll have the opportunity to design photo albums and beautiful wall art that will perfectly compliment you and your home. Your purchased digital images will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery that you can easily download and share within just a few weeks!
