I strive to create a UNIQUE experience for each NC senior portrait session. I want to help you pick the perfect locations and outfits for your session. I want your portraits to be YOU, who you are in this stage of your life.
At my senior sessions, I ensure a stress-free experience by meticulously planning every detail in advance. This allows my seniors to focus solely on having an amazing time and enjoying the moment. Each session is a celebration filled with laughter and fun, making it a unique and memorable experience. I cherish every opportunity to honor my seniors and create lasting memories together.

experience
variety of looks
Your senior session includes 4 OUTFITS - this will give you a variety of looks. Most seniors pick a couple of dressier outfits, a causal outfit and depending on the season you can pick your future college or cap and gown portraits. This also allows you to capture your special sport/activity. If you are a dancer we can also capture this during your session including skills and extensions.

process
High School Senior Portraits are meant to be enjoyed not locked away on your computer hard drive.
I want to display them proudly on our walls. So when they are hours away at college, I can walk by daily and see his/her smile and their eyes looking back at me.
I want those senior albums with all of the facial expressions also, so I can remember how silly and crazy they were at 17-18 years old. But if I just have the digitals that are just stored away on my hard-drive and the worse happens and my computer crashes before I get hard copies - oh the tears I would shed.
Q: Printed Artwork or Digital photos?
I know you can look online and instantly find 20+ options of places to print out your images and even your local drug store or Walmart. But those places use cheap materials and you will not get true colors. After all of the time and money spent on your senior session you should make sure to order the best print products that can be treasured for a lifetime and passed down generations to come. I offer only high-quality products that are included in my portrait collection. During your reveal session I will help you pick out the perfect size, collage etc for your wall and the best size album and number of pages. You can even send me a picture and measurements of your family room wall and we can design everything during your reveal session. Don't forget about the grandparents - I'm sure they would love to have an updated portrait to enjoy in their living room as well.
where to get your portraits printed
One of my favorite type of Wall Art is Metal Prints - it is so vivid and beautiful. These metal prints can be framed or not, metal prints come with a float mount and ready to easily hang on your walls.
"Metal prints are printed on a thin aluminum surface and employing a modern dye-sublimation process and the latest technology for enhanced color, clarity, detail, and archival quality, Vivid & Matte Metals are a show-stopping contemporary decor piece. "
- Miller's Professional Imaging
metal prints are super popular
At your reveal session you will be able to look through the studio samples and decide on the best collection for you and your family.

I cannot say enough great things about Jenn. I came across Jenn’s work when a friend of mine had a daughter graduating high school last year. I saw her pictures and was absolutely mesmerized in how she captured her personality in each picture. When it was time for me to shop for a graduation photographer, there was no question in my mind who I would go with. My daughter was a member of the Model Team 2024 and this experience is one that is unforgettable. Jenn goes out of her way a special relationship with each one of the girls she photographs. Her loving and kind spirit is exhibited every time she’s behind the camera. Not only is she an awesome (the best) photographer, she is an even better friend and role model. If you are still looking or on the fence at all, I urge you to read Jenn’s reviews. You will not be disappointed, but be forever grateful to the one who could capture your child memories in such a special way. Love you Jenn!

Jenn captured photos of our daughter's entire senior year of high school, and we could't be more pleased. Jenn is patient, kind, funny, and really makes an effort to help people feel comfortable. The increase of confidence in our daughter from the beginning photos to the end was definitely noticeable! We are looking forward to our younger daughter having the same experience on the Senior Model Team next year.

Our SR portraits were amazing. We continue to get compliments on the photos. Jenn was super helpful through the whole experience and was able to get my Sr out of her shell. I would totally recommend to anyone needing great portraits.

Building confidence in teenagers through their senior portraits is crucial as it marks a significant milestone in their journey to adulthood. These portraits are not merely pictures but reflections of their growth, achievements, and unique personalities. By capturing their essence and showcasing their strengths, senior portraits can empower teenagers to see themselves in a new light, instilling pride in their accomplishments and bolstering their self-esteem. This experience encourages them to embrace their individuality and celebrate their journey thus far, providing a tangible reminder of their potential and resilience.
Ultimately, senior portraits serve as more than just images; they become powerful tools in nurturing confidence and self-belief as teenagers transition into the next phase of their lives.
