The session fee is due to secure your photoshoot. This fee covers your photoshoot time and the costs associated with planning, styling, shooting, and viewing your session.
Once you have secured your session, we will email you a questionnaire to start the photoshoot planning process.

Senior Photos FAQs
When should I book a senior photoshoot?
My favorite seasons to shoot graduation portraits outdoors are in Spring, Summer, and Fall. Winter senior portrait sessions are best in the studio. Most senior photos are best photographed the summer before senior year, especially if you are in sports and have a busy schedule during the school year.
What do I need to prepare for my senior photos?
Senior portrait sessions last up to one hour and include several natural poses and fun arrangements. Once your session has been secured, I'll send a questionnaire so that I can start planning your photos. Shopping for your favorite outfits is the most important part of preparing for senior photos. Bring along several options, including hats, jackets, accessories, and props.
How much do senior photos cost?
Quality professional photography is considered an investment in your family's art. Prices range depending on your photographic needs. Most clients invest between $700 and $2000 for their senior portrait collection. We offer full-resolution digital files, heirloom-quality printed art pieces, and packages that combine digital and printed art.
We are a full-service studio, which means your portraits can be printed and framed, wrapped in canvas, or arranged in a beautiful heirloom album. We also offer graduation announcements and invitations.
