Personalize your senior portraits

You made it!  You can see the finish line of your senior year in high school.  There are so many things to do and to think about.  So much planning for the future and saying goodbyes.  The senior portrait session is a very special session for the senior and for the parents.  Make it special and personal! Bring some things with you that express who you are and what you love.  A new college t-shirt, your old baseball bat, or your dog!  All of these things tell a little story about you and are perfect to include in your senior portraits.  I love seeing these things in my sessions with seniors.  It makes them real and beautiful.

A senior session with Brandon

My senior session with Brandon was fantastic!  We started with pictures with his car – and the brand new Texas Tech sticker and sweatshirt.  I love how the colors of the sweatshirt match the car!  Totally not planned.  And of course since we did the session at his home, the dog was ready for her closeup as well.  He’ll miss her while he’s away at college but she’ll be patiently waiting for his return on holidays.  Behind the house, the woods made a perfect backdrop for a natural environment portrait.  These are some of my favorites from the session.  Finally, we ended the session at the high school track.  Some posed shots and a few action shots later and we were able to capture a sport that Brandon loves and was such a big part of his high school life.  Just look at all of those medals!!

💛 Your family's unique story

These aren't just photos for today — they're legacy images your kids will always look back on. Photos they'll treasure. Photos they'll show their own children someday.

I hear it all the time… ⬇️

“I want to lose a little weight first.”
“I’ll do it after I get my hair done.”
“I just don’t feel ready yet.”

But the truth is… most people never feel 100% ready.
And that’s okay.

You don’t need to be “perfect” to show up confidently.
You just need the right space, the right support, and someone behind the camera who sees you as you are—right now.

✨ If this is the sign you’ve been waiting for… I’d love to help.
Here’s the truth 👇🏻

I have two business degrees — everything I’ve learned about photography came from hands-on experience and in-person workshops.

If you’re starting a headshot business or stepping into photography, here’s my biggest advice:

✨ Join local and national photography organizations

✨ Invest in in-person workshops

✨ Learn by doing, not just watching

Online resources are great, but there’s no substitute for seeing another photographer set up lighting, work with models, and handle real scenarios. You figure out what works for you by trying it yourself.

Because at the end of the day, your style is yours — and you only find it through practice.

✨ Seniors — it’s YOUR year! ✨

Your senior portraits should feel like you — not just another cookie-cutter session. That means:

🕶️ Bring your sunglasses
👟 Rock your favorite sneakers
🎸 Grab your instrument, your dog, or even your best friend

Let’s add personality, attitude, and fun so your session is unforgettable. Because these aren’t just photos — they’re memories you’ll look back on for years to come. 💛
