What other grads are saying

My experience taking senior portraits with Rachel was absolutely amazing! She genuinely invested time in getting to know me, which made me feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Rachel’s warm personality and attention to detail truly brought out the best in me, creating stunning photos that I will cherish forever.

As someone who is not the biggest fan of being photographed, I was very nervous going into my senior portrait session. However, Rachel ensured I was having fun and felt beautiful throughout the entirety of my experience. The final pictures exceeded my expectations and definitely captured my personality just as I had hoped they would.

Working with Rachel for my senior portraits has been an amazing experience. She made me feel seen, heard, and more than anything confident in front of the camera. The pictures came out beautifully and I would recommend her time and time again!

  • If you're feeling this way, know you're in good company. We are our own worst critics and the biggest obstacle to taking natural-looking photos in my opinion is our tendency to tense up when the camera comes out. With guided coaching and a relaxed environment, I’ll help you look and feel your best in front of the camera.

  • Not at all! I’ll guide you through every step, ensuring your poses and expressions look great and feel like YOU.

  • Most seniors bring between 2-4 outfits for their shoot. What you wear is completely up to you; the most important thing is that you feel confident in your clothes. We'll talk through options during our planning call and I'm happy to offer guidance, if needed.

    When it comes to changing outfits on location, I have a pop-up tent I bring along to allow you to do a quick change on-the-go and let us get right back to shooting!

  • Yes! We can arrange for professional hair and makeup as part of your photoshoot experience.

  • Senior sessions usually last about one hour.

  • Turnaround time for senior portraits is approximately two weeks. You'll receive your gallery by email and we'll also schedule your in-studio viewing session, where I’ll help you select your favorites for printing.

  • Included in your senior portrait package are the web resolution digital files (30-40). These are sized perfectly for sharing online and making reprints up to 4x6 size and graduation announcements up to 5x7 size.

    In addition, you'll also have a $500 print credit which can be used toward professionally-printed wall art or beautifully crafted keepsake boxes. (When you come back into the studio for your viewing session, you'll be able to see samples of all the available products.)

  • You can request a detailed PDF with all pricing and package options by filling out a simple form on the website (also available here), or schedule a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your needs and get personalized recommendations.
