SENIOR PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE!
Senior year only happens once. Your portraits should feel like YOU.
My senior sessions are custom creative experiences built around your personality, style and interests. From clean and natural to bold, dramatic, edgy or glam, we'll work together to create something that feels authentic to you and looks nothing like the same senior pictures everyone else has.
Everything you need to know before booking is right here.

HERES HOW THE PROCESS WORKS:
1. PRICING
Your senior session is built a little differently. Instead of paying one large fee upfront for a predetermined number of images, you pay for the creative session first and choose what you love afterward.
$300
Creative Session Fee
$250
Minimum Portrait Purchase
$550
Starting Total Investment
-
CREATIVE SESSION FEE — $300
Your session fee reserves your date and covers the complete photography experience, including pre-session planning, wardrobe and location guidance, creative direction, professional lighting, your portrait session and private online proofing gallery.
Finished photographs, digital files and printed artwork are purchased separately after your session. This means you aren't paying for images you don't want. You'll view your proofs, choose your favorites and decide exactly what you'd like to purchase.
-
PORTRAIT PURCHASE — $250 MINIMUM
After your session, you'll receive a private proofing gallery where you can purchase professionally retouched digital images, prints, wall art and portrait collections.
Digital collections begin at $225, with individual digitals, prints, canvases and other artwork also available.
Senior portrait experiences begin at $550 total, including the $300 Creative Session Fee and $250 minimum portrait purchase.
Most clients invest between $600–$1,000+ depending on the number of images and products they choose.
Your selected images are professionally retouched only after your order is placed, so you're investing my editing time into the photographs you actually love.
2. THE EXPERIENCE
This isn't about showing up, standing in a few poses and calling it a day. Your senior session is a custom creative experience built around YOU.
Before we ever pick up a camera, we'll talk about your personality, style, interests and ideas. We'll plan locations, wardrobe and the overall look of your session together. Want something clean and natural? Let's do it. Dark and dramatic? Absolutely. Edgy, athletic, urban, glam or completely outside the box? Even better.
During your session, I'll guide you through everything. You don't need to know how to pose, where to look or what to do with your hands. That's my job. We'll work through different looks, lighting setups and locations while keeping things relaxed and, most importantly, fun.
My approach combines professional studio lighting with real-world locations and extensive Photoshop artistry to create the polished, dynamic look you see throughout my portfolio. Every finished portrait is individually crafted rather than simply run through a preset or filter.
The goal isn't to make you look like someone else. It's to create the best version of YOU and give you senior portraits that actually feel like yours.
WHAT MAKES OUR SESSIONS DIFFERENT?
CUSTOM PLANNING
Built around your personality, style and interests.
PROFESSIONAL LIGHTING
Studio-quality lighting on location for a polished, dynamic look.
FULLY GUIDED
No modeling experience required. I'll guide you through the entire shoot.
SIGNATURE RETOUCHING
Your purchased images are individually finished by hand in Photoshop.
-
Once you're booked, we'll start planning your session. We'll talk about your personality, interests, wardrobe, locations and the overall style you want. Have an idea or inspiration you've seen somewhere? Send it my way! I love collaborating and creating something that's uniquely yours.
-
This is the fun part! During your session, I'll guide you through posing, expressions and movement while taking care of all the lighting and technical stuff. We'll work through different outfits, locations and looks to give you plenty of variety.
Don't worry if you've never been comfortable in front of a camera. Most people aren't. That's why I'm there!
-
After your session, I'll carefully review and prepare the best images from your shoot and upload them to a private online proofing gallery.
From there, YOU decide what you love. Choose individual images, a digital collection, prints, wall art or one of our portrait collections. You're only purchasing the photographs and products you actually want.
-
Once your order is placed, your selected images receive my full professional retouching and Photoshop treatment.
The images you initially see in your proofing gallery are proofs and are not the finished product. When making your selections, focus on your expression, pose and overall image. Minor skin imperfections, distracting background elements and other details will be addressed during the final retouching process.
-
Once your images are finished, your final high-resolution digital files will be delivered through your private online gallery. Prints, canvases and other physical artwork will be professionally produced and delivered separately.
Then comes the easy part: enjoy them, share them, print them, hang them on the wall and remember this ridiculously short chapter of your life for years to come.
3. WHAT TO EXPECT
From planning your session to receiving your finished portraits, I want the entire process to be easy, relaxed and fun. Here's how it works:
4. WARDROBE & PREPARATION
Bring options! I recommend 3–5 outfits that show different sides of your personality. Casual, dressy, athletic, edgy, glam or simply something that feels completely YOU.
Jerseys, uniforms, letterman jackets, instruments, cars, hobbies and other meaningful items are always welcome. If it's part of who you are, let's incorporate it!
Try to avoid distracting logos or overly busy patterns, and bring clothing on hangers whenever possible.
Not sure what to wear? No problem. Send me photos of your options beforehand and I'll be happy to help you decide what will photograph best.
BRING OPTIONS
3–5 different looks gives us plenty of variety.
MAKE IT PERSONAL
Sports, hobbies and anything that represents YOU is encouraged.
DON'T FORGET THE DETAILS
Shoes, jewelry and accessories matter too.
5. HAIR & MAKEUP
Professional hair and makeup is completely optional. If you prefer to do your own, just arrive camera-ready and looking like yourself.
If you'd like professional hair and makeup, I'm happy to recommend artists who understand how to create a polished look that photographs beautifully without making you look like someone else.
GUYS, THIS MEANS YOU TOO!
A little preparation goes a long way. Fresh haircut, trimmed facial hair, clean nails and basic grooming can make a big difference in your finished portraits.
Most importantly, don't overthink it. The goal is to look like YOU, just on a really good day.
6. AVAILABILITY, BOOKING & PAYMENT
Senior sessions are available throughout the year, but dates are limited. If you have a specific season, location or timeframe in mind, I recommend booking early, especially during the busy fall season.
BOOKING
Your $300 Creative Session Fee is due in full at booking and reserves your session date. Session fees are non-refundable.
PAYMENT
Finished images and products are purchased separately after your session through your private proofing gallery. A minimum portrait purchase of $250 is required.
RESCHEDULING
Things happen! If you need to reschedule, please contact me as soon as possible and I'll do my best to find another available date.
WEATHER
Since many of my sessions take place outdoors, weather sometimes has other plans. If conditions aren't cooperating, we'll work together to reschedule your session for the next available date.
7. IMAGE SELECTIONS & DELIVERY
After your session, you'll receive a private online proofing gallery featuring the best images from your shoot. From there, simply choose the images and products you love and place your order.
YOUR PROOFS
Gallery images receive basic preparation for viewing but are not fully retouched. When choosing your favorites, focus on expression, pose and the overall image. Your purchased images will receive my complete professional retouching and Photoshop treatment.
FINAL DELIVERY
Once your order is placed and paid in full, your selected images will be professionally edited and delivered through your private online gallery within 15 business days, unless otherwise stated.
Prints, canvases and other physical products will be professionally produced after editing and delivered separately.
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN!
