You’ve put in the work — now it’s time to celebrate the accomplishment!

Whether you want classic cap-and-gown portraits, a stylish outfit change, or photos that show off your personality, we’ll create images you’ll be proud to share with family, friends, and social media.


Sessions are relaxed, guided, and created to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera while celebrating everything you’ve achieved.

WHAT TO EXPECT

I spend quite some time after our session in editing. I like enhancing the images to make sure we get great even color. I soften shadows and ensure I have proper lighting across the image, and you will still look like you! I will also gently enhance the skin to get rid of sudden “day of” breakouts, disruptive pimples and so forth. But nothing crazy; no eye color changing, no over-whitened teeth, no turning skin into flat cakey colors—we want you to look like yourself.

SO WHAT DO YOU DO?

With gentle (and sometimes goofy) instructions, I will instruct you with each pose to make; where to look, where to shift your body, when to smile and when not to, where to put your hands—all of that. You won’t look lost or confused in your photos. You will look so good, you will have fun, I will make your experience easy breezy. But even better than that, you will get some amazing photos.
