Can I bring a parent or friend?

Yes! Bring whoever helps you feel most like yourself. Parents are welcome to come along and even join for a quick photo.

Do you photograph senior guys too?

Definitely. I tailor each session to the individual—laid-back, expressive, or anything in between.

When should I schedule my senior photos?

Most seniors shoot between July and October, depending on school deadlines and weather, but senior portraits can be done any time of year! Booking early helps secure the best light and locations based on your preferences.

How long is the session?

Most senior sessions run 90 minutes to two hours.

That's the right length for two or three location changes, two wardrobe changes, and time for both of you to settle in. We never rush. Some seniors finish in 90 minutes flat. Some take the full two hours. Either is normal.

Longer experiences are available on request — a half-day or full-day session built around multiple locations, a styling team, or a more involved concept. Those start at $2,500 and are quoted individually.

What if it rains?

If we’re outdoors and weather turns bad, we’ll reschedule or pivot to a covered location. No stress—just great photos, rain or shine.

How much does it cost?

Since every session is custom-built for you and your family, overall spend can vary but senior sessions start at $1,290, most clients spend between $2,800–$6,000 depending on session length, number of locations, number of images, and physical products. I’ll walk you through all of your options.
