This Is Your Moment. Let's Make It Feel Like You.

Senior year is moving fast. Before the parties, the goodbyes, and whatever comes next — you deserve photos that actually look like you. Not a posed version of you. Not Pinterest you. You.

You're Going to Look Amazing. Here's Why.

You don't need to know how to pose. You don't need to have your "look" figured out. You just need to show up.

Within the first few minutes you'll forget there's even a camera. We'll walk, talk, laugh — and somewhere in there I'll capture the version of you that your future self is going to be so glad exists.

These are the photos you'll still love in 20 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Sessions are typically 45-50 minutes. Best to plan for 1-1.5 hours though to make time for cranky kids (or husbands).

  • I would bring makeup for touching up, anything for the kids to keep them smiling. Snacks and bribes for the little ones are great too!

  • Coordinated colors are best. You don’t need to match, but do coordinate. Creams, pastels, solid colors are great choices.

  • I have a few local spots that are beautiful. If you have spots that are family favorites or have an important place in your families story, I’m happy to photograph there. Keep in mind that most of DC is national park land and will require permits, no problem, but it does take some time to apply and get the permit.

  • Most of my clients are shy or anxious in front of a camera. I guide everyone through the process so there’s guesswork, and I’m not above sounding like a total dork to get kids to laugh.

  • Of course! Pets are just an important as anyone else to the family. If you want to bring the dog, or cat (that would be a first), I’m all for it.
