Senior Photo Ideas

Senior photo sessions are so much fun because we can be creative!  The sky is the limit.  First, during our consultation, we will talk about you and what you like to do and who you are.  This will help guide our choices about location, wardrobe, and props.  If you play sports, bring some equipment.  Play in the band or dance or love art?  Bring something to reflect those loves.  It makes the session so personal and unique and you’ll love the outcome as we play with the props.  Next, during our session, I will help with posing and ideas for where and how to pose in each location.  But if you have ideas, you should certainly go for it!  Finally, at our image review, sit back, relax, and pick out the very best images to keep!

A Session with Emma

Emma’s session was an absolute blast!  She is very much an artist and wanted graffiti walls in her session.  We found the perfect location and used a great mix of art walls and nature for a balanced portfolio of images!  She brought lots of props as well to tell her high school senior story.  Emma came with her letter jacket, cap & gown, her homecoming mum, glitter, and some really cool feather earrings to wear as a nod to her Indian heritage.  I loved everything!  We even got some shot of her with Mom and the truck!  We ended the session in a t-shirt that a friend had made to honor the Covid-quarantined year that many students had to endure.  It was a rough year!  But Emma made it through and I’m so very glad that we were able to celebrate this huge milestone with her!

The best part of this job?👇🏼

 Seeing clients recognize themselves in their photos — confident, professional, and proud — never gets old. 

Your kind words, trust, and support mean more than you know, and they’re the reason I love what I do every single day.

Every session is about more than just photos. It’s about helping you feel seen, confident, and represented in a way that truly feels like you.

Thank you to every client who’s trusted me with their story — and shared such thoughtful reviews along the way.

Some poses might feel a little silly in the moment and that’s okay. 📸👇🏼

One of the biggest secrets to great photos is being willing to experiment.

What feels “unnatural” in real life often looks confident, effortless, and polished on camera. That’s why posing is such a big part of what I do during every session.

I’ll guide you through adjustments, test different angles, and fine-tune details so we find what truly works for you. 

You don’t need to overthink it or worry about how you look — trusting the process is where the magic happens.

You show up. I’ll handle the posing.

I hear this all the time — and the good news is, you don’t need to👇🏻

Guiding you through posing, angles, and expressions is literally my job.

During every session, I give clear, simple direction so you never feel awkward or unsure of what to do next.

My goal is to help you feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident — because that’s when you look your best. 

You’re never expected to “perform” or figure it out on your own. I’ll position you in ways that highlight your best features and feel natural to you.

All you need to do is show up. I’ll take care of the rest.

Your face is the star of your headshot — and how your hair frames it makes all the difference. ✨

Here's what most people miss: hair should frame your features, not compete with them.

✨ Thicker hair? Pull it back to highlight your face. 

✨ Thinner hair? Bring it forward for balance and dimension.

Small adjustments like this help your headshot truly reflect you — confident, polished, and professional.

The goal is simple: when someone sees your photo, they see YOU. Your personality, your confidence, your energy — all in one image.

— we’re taking you even deeper behind the scenes. 📸

The posing cues, lighting tweaks, and real-time direction aren’t just “nice touches” — they’re what turn great shots into professional branding assets you’ll actually use.

Branding sessions aren’t just about photos. They’re about creating a library of content that elevates your website, social media, and marketing materials — all while staying true to your personality and brand energy.

My clients are always surprised by how effortless it feels when guidance, strategy, and personality come together on camera. 

You don’t need to be a model — you just need to show up. I’ll handle the rest.
