Hi, I’m Elle!

As a mom of teenage boys, I know firsthand how fast these high school years fly by. That’s why I’m passionate about creating senior portraits that capture who your teen truly is at this milestone moment. I’ll guide you through the entire process, making it fun and stress-free for both parents and seniors. My goal? To deliver photos you’ll cherish forever and make sure your senior feels like a star!

How it works

1. Let’s Plan Your Perfect Session!

We’ll kick things off with a style and concept consultation to bring your dream photoshoot to life. Together, we’ll create a vibe that feels 100% you—from picking outfits to deciding on indoor, outdoor, or both! Plus, I’ll share a prep guide so you know exactly how to slay your session.

2. Look and Feel Amazing

Professional hair and makeup? Yes, please! Whether you want a natural look or full-on glam, we’ve got you covered—it’s all included in the session fee. Prefer to do your own? Totally cool, too. Either way, you’ll be camera-ready and feeling like a star.

3. Your Moment to Shine

This is where the magic happens! Your photoshoot is all about you. I’ll guide you through fun poses, creative setups, and outfit changes so you look and feel incredible. Whether we’re indoors with moody lighting or outdoors chasing golden hour, it’s going to be a vibe. I promise—you’ll have a blast and walk away feeling confident and empowered.

4. Bring Your Photos to Life

After your shoot, we’ll meet to check out your gorgeous gallery and design something amazing — whether it’s an album, a keepsake box, or wall art for your home. Everything is top-quality and guaranteed to wow. Light retouching is included, so say goodbye to any last-minute stress (hello, pimple-free perfection!).

Your Senior Year, Your Keepsakes

    Storybook / Album

    I get it — you’re all about the digitals, but trust me, this one’s for mom (you’ll thank her later!). Don’t worry, you’ll get the digitals for every photo you pick for the album (or any of the printed products)

    Each album is custom-designed by me and handmade in Italy, featuring gorgeous leather covers that are totally timeless. Want to level up? Upgrade to a crystal cover for a classy, head-turning keepsake. It’s the perfect way to make sure your senior year memories are unforgettable!

  • Open photo album showing black and white photographs resting on a black box, with a wooden surface underneath.

    Memory Box

    Think of this as a super stylish photo box with a twist—it’s also a frame! You can swap out the featured photo whenever you want, so your fave always gets the spotlight. Each box is handmade with luxe materials like authentic Italian leather, making it the perfect way to show off and keep your senior year memories safe.

    WALL ART

    Transform your space with wall art that’s as unique as you are! Whether you’re into sleek metal, modern acrylic, or timeless canvas, we’ve got options to match your style. Showcase your favorite memories with premium materials and stunning quality—because your photos deserve to shine.

Frequently asked questions

Do you provide hair and makeup services? Can I do my own?

Yes, professional hair and makeup services are included in your session fee! It’s a fun way to relax and feel pampered before your shoot, and we’ll customize the look to match your style — whether that’s natural, glam, or somewhere in between.

If you prefer to do your own hair and makeup, that’s totally fine too! It’s all about what makes you feel your best and most confident.

How do I choose between indoor, outdoor, or a combination of both?

It depends on your style! Indoor sessions are great for a polished, creative vibe with controlled lighting and backdrops, while outdoor sessions offer natural light and stunning scenery for a carefree feel. Can’t decide? A mix gives you the best of both worlds! During our consultation, I’ll help you pick what fits your personality and vision best.

Can I book with a friend and do our sessions together?

Absolutely! Booking with a friend can make the experience even more fun. While each of you will still have your own individual portraits, we can also capture a few fun shots together. Plus, having a friend along can help you feel more relaxed and confident during your session. Just let me know, and we’ll plan the perfect day for both of you!

Can I include props like my sports gear, musical instruments, or favorite books?

Yes of course, we’ll go over all of that during your session consultation.

What should I wear for my senior session?

Don’t worry, with your booking you receive a complimentary wardrobe consultation. We will go through what to wear, what looks good in photos and where to shop. 

how much retouching do you do on the images?

I retouch all final images. I usually do a clean-up of backgrounds and remove temporary blemishes such as bruises, scrapes, and pimples. We will discuss any further edits during the design consultation.
