Be who makes you happy

 

 

Custom, high-energy storytelling experiences for Denver Metro seniors.

 

This is not a "go stand in a field and look awkward" kind of session.

Just for starters, senior photography is my favorite. I am just going to say it: I put the “extra” in extravagant. You are only a high school senior once, and your portraits will be some of the most viewed images of your life. This experience is entirely about you and needs to tell your unique story. And yes, we do love a good field at sunset, but that is not all we do.

As a full-service boutique portrait studio, we do things differently. We don't stress over a ticking clock or restrict your outfits. Instead, we customize every aspect of your session: from coordinating professional hair and makeup (if you’d like), to selecting one-of-a-kind locations that fit your personality. Your session might start in a beautiful local outdoor venue, move into a cozy coffee shop, and wrap up in front of a colorful downtown graffiti wall. You deserve an elevated, unforgettable experience, and I am here to guide you through every single step.

Made for Your Walls. Ready for Your Grid.

Of course you’re going to want to show these off online, getting those digital bragging rights is half the fun, and we have custom options ready to get your favorite frames onto your social feeds. But we also believe this milestone is far too massive to let your memories live out their days trapped entirely behind glass or collecting digital dust on a hard drive.


We shoot with the final design in mind, creating custom-tailored heirloom albums, statement canvas groupings, and elegant display pieces that breathe life into your home. The real magic happens completely on set through intentional lighting and high-end set builds-our editing is just the icing, not the cake.

Session Fee $300

 

  • Welcome Magazine: This 60+ page magazine guides you through everything you need to feel ready for your custom session, including what to wear, location inspiration, how to prepare, what to expect in the days leading up to your session, the day itself, and the weeks that follow.
  • Style and Design Consult: Together, we design your session. This may include mood boards, image sharing, and outfit planning. We'll explore products you might be interested in and review inspiration photos to bring your vision to life.
  • Multiple Locations: You likely have a few location ideas or at least a vibe you want to capture. I keep a list of favorite spots and hidden gems just waiting for the right senior. Sometimes we can capture everything you want in one main location; other times, we'll take a short drive to reach the perfect backdrop.
  • Access to premium locations: Many picturesque locations require permits, and I hold permits for all of the most popular spots.
  • All your favorite outfits: Sometimes the outfits inspire the location, and other times we match the outfit to the setting. Realistically, 4-6 outfits is a great range. I like to over-plan, so we may not get to them all, but if the location calls for a change, we'll go with it!
  • No strict time limits: Since we may visit multiple locations with drive time and unpredictable weather, I avoid strict timelines. Instead, I'll create a realistic schedule that allows flexibility and works for everyone. The average shoot lasts about 2 hours, but the final timing depends on several variables until we finalize the details.
  • Friends, pets, and hobbies: Friends, pets, and props are always welcome.
  • Studio and outdoor options: I highly recommend trying both! We can do some really fun things in the studio that aren't possible outdoors, and vice versa, plus there's the weather to consider.  Since we do not have strict time limits there is not need to worry about waisting time. Some of my favorite images are personality portraits done in either black and white or on your favorite color in the studio.
  • Reveal & Ordering Session: One of my favorite days! This meeting is generally 1-2 weeks after your session and lasts about 90 minutes. Visit my home studio, or meet via zoom, and review all of your images. Seriously, if an image is technically sound and I feel confident in it, you'll see it. Expect 70+ images for every hour we shoot. Together, we'll eliminate the images you don't love, and figure out what to do with the ones you do love: albums, phone apps, collections, prints, digitals....
  • Professional high-end retouching: Editing and retouching are two different things. Editing covers classic color, cropping, exposure, and vibrance that stays true to my brand or matches a style we were shooting for. Retouching adds finishing touches that polish your photo, such as removing background distractions, reducing blemishes and flyaway hair, and removing braces if desired. Retouching is as custom as your session, and we'll go over all the details at your reveal. All of it is included, as little or as much as you want.


Prints, heirloom albums, digital files, and custom collections are purchased separately during your Reveal and Ordering Session.

If you are looking for a more simple session option, ask me about my Essentials Session. These are geared towards the more minimalist client. You want beautiful images, but don't need the full experience.

 

CUSTOM ARTWORK & COLLECTIONS

Because every family wants to preserve this once-in-a-lifetime milestone differently, you only buy exactly what you love. We do offer collections and  packages with our most popular items as well as an a-la-carte menu of offerings. Following your session, we will design a custom artwork collection tailored entirely to your home, featuring custom-designed books, signature canvas groupings, and keepsake boxes.

 

Print Packages begin at: $500

Average investments $2000+

 

 

Confidence looks good on you.

 

Every setup, every lighting choice, and every location is curated specifically to showcase the truest, most legendary version of who you are.
