Senior Portrait Photographer

I love photographing seniors – high school seniors and college seniors! These sessions are always relaxed, fun, and creative. Seniors usually bring multiple outfits and props. Mom usually comes along too to help with wardrobe changes and sometimes I put her to work as my assistant! High school portraits used to be boring and static. Now seniors can really express who they are and what they love in their senior portraits. With a senior portrait session, we can show your true personality. I have photographed seniors with their rings, with their pets, with their sports equipment, and with their horses. I can’t wait to see what you’ll bring to your senior portrait session!

Portrait Session with Ethan

Ethan’s family had planned to do family portraits for the holidays but the universe had other plans! Since Ethan just graduated from Texas A&M with an engineering degree, Mom wanted senior portraits for him anyway. Ethan and I had a great time in The Woodlands exploring spots for his portraits. It was a little chilly on the day of the session but we were able to get some fantastic shots. Even though it’s Texas and we barely get a winter, the leaves on the trees were just gorgeous. It was hard to choose our favorites but Mom is going to love the framed collage that will sit on her table where she can enjoy her son’s photo. Ethan has some great photos of himself and can use one for his next pursuit – a job! All my best Ethan in the next stage of your life.

🤝🏼 Meet Stacie Coleman!

Stacie is a familiar face here in The Woodlands and works with Project Beacon, a local nonprofit providing resources and support for adults with autism. 🤍

For her recent headshot session, we made sure to capture the classics—a polished, traditional gray background that can work just about anywhere.

But we didn’t stop there. 💗💙

We also brought in pink and blue backgrounds for a few images that feel brighter, more playful, and full of personality.

Because professional headshots do not have to be boring.

Your headshot should make sense for your role and where you plan to use it, but it should also feel like you. Your background, wardrobe, expression, and overall style can all work together to complement your personality and your organization’s brand aesthetic.

I love the variety we created for Stacie—and I especially love that she now has options depending on where and how she wants to show up.

Thank you for trusting me with your headshots, Stacie! It was such a pleasure having you in front of my camera. 📸

Your business doesn’t need to be “more established” first.

You don’t need to lose the weight, finish the website, perfect your wardrobe, or wait until you feel 100% ready.

If your current photos no longer reflect the level of business you’re building, that’s reason enough to update them.

A branding session gives you more than a new headshot—it gives you a library of intentional, on-brand images you can actually use across your website, social media, marketing, speaking opportunities, and everything in between.

We’ll plan the looks, the location, the shots you need, and how you’ll use them.

You just have to finally put it on the calendar. 😉

The #1 thing I hear from seniors? “I don’t know how to pose.” 👇🏻

Good news: you don’t need to. That’s my job. 🤍

You don’t have to practice poses in the mirror or spend hours saving inspiration on Pinterest before your session. I’ll guide you through where to put your hands, how to shift your weight, when to move, where to look—all of it.

We’ll mix the classic poses with sitting, walking, twirling, laughing, and plenty of movement so your final gallery has variety without feeling forced.

Save this Senior Girl Posing Guide for a little inspiration, but remember: the best poses are the ones that still feel like you.

You’re not supposed to know what to do in front of the camera—that’s my job. 🙌🏼

I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle your body, when to shift your weight, where to look, and yes… I’ll probably demonstrate it myself first. 😂

Good posing isn’t about memorizing a bunch of complicated positions. It’s about making small adjustments that help you look confident, approachable, and like yourself.

And if you want a little head start before your next headshot or branding session, I put together a free guide with 5 Power Poses Every Professional Should Know.

These are simple poses you can use for professional photos, speaking engagements, events, or anytime a camera gets pointed your way.

📸 Grab the free guide through the link in my bio—and save this reel as proof that you will never be left standing in front of my camera wondering what to do with your hands. 😂

I’ve been a photographer for a long time, and somewhere along the way I realized the photos are only part of what I get to create. 🤍

I get to help someone who hates being photographed finally feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I get to help business owners show up confidently for the brands they’ve worked so hard to build.

Yes, I make photographs.

But I also get to create confidence, connection, and something worth holding onto.

And I think that’s a pretty great way to make a living. 📸

Ready to create something of your own? Whether you need updated headshots, fresh branding photos, senior portraits, or family photos, I’d love to have you in front of my camera.

If your team is constantly changing… this is worth knowing. 👇🏼

Group photos can be one of the hardest things to keep updated—especially for businesses with high turnover, growing teams, or people who aren’t always in the same place at the same time.

That’s where a group composite comes in.

Instead of trying to coordinate everyone for one big photo, I photograph each person individually—so you get cohesive, professional headshots—and then build the group image from there.

The biggest benefit?

When someone joins or leaves your team, you don’t have to start over. We simply update the composite—no need to reschedule a full team session.

It’s a much more flexible (and realistic) way to keep your team looking consistent and up to date.

If your team photos have been on your to-do list, this might be the solution you’ve been looking for.
