The dread is almost always the same. Not knowing what to do in front of a camera. Worrying the photos won't look like you, or worse that they will, but not in a good way. Southern NH families drive past Salem every day on 93 and most of them don't know there's a senior portrait photographer who has built his entire approach around solving exactly that problem.

Process

Sessions are fully directed. You show up. I handle the rest. Every cue, every transition, every moment is guided…calmly, without pressure, without a list of poses to perform. The images that come out of that process look the way they do because the session feels the way it does.

Locations

Salem sessions typically take place at nearby beaches, parks, and natural locations — Plum Island, Maudslay State Park, and the Merrimack River corridor are frequent choices. Studio sessions are also available year-round.

INVESTMENT:

Session investment starts at $1,290, which includes $900 toward your album or wall art. Most families invest between $2,600 and $4,500.

A calm, guided senior portrait experience

Most seniors don’t hate photos. They hate not knowing what to do.

That uncertainty is what this experience removes.

Every session is built around a structured, supportive approach that replaces awkward posing with clear direction and real-time feedback. Seniors are guided throughout the session so confidence shows naturally, without pressure or performance.

This approach works especially well for students who are thoughtful, driven, or a little camera-shy. Confidence builds quickly when expectations are clear.
