You have questions about senior photos?! I have answers!
If you’ve been wondering what a Chicago senior photo session with me is like, here are a few things you might not know about how I do things. (Hint: it’s a little different BUT in the best way.)

Posing? I’ve Got You.
I do not expect you to show up knowing how to pose. I’ll say it again for the people in the back: I truly don’t expect you to show up to your senior session knowing how to pose.
That’s my job! From the first photo to the last, I’ll guide you through every step, especially when it comes to your hands (because honestly, that’s the part everyone feels awkward about). I’ll show you exactly what to do so you feel confident, natural, and comfortable the entire time.
Professional Hair & Makeup Is Included
Yep, you read that right – hair and makeup are part of my session fee. You literally just have to show up on your session day, relax in the chair, and let my amazing beauty team take care of you. It’s a little pre-session pampering that helps you feel your absolute best in front of the camera.
Bring ALL the Outfits
I’m a clothes lover, so my rule is: bring everything! That’s the honest truth! Most of my seniors end up with 4–5 outfits during their session, but you can bring as many as you want. We’ll pick and choose the best combinations together, making sure you get variety in your gallery.
I love to collaborate with you!
This is your session, so I want to hear your ideas. Where do you love to hang out? What’s your dream backdrop? I’m always happy to make suggestions, and I even have a location guide to help you choose. Together, we’ll plan a Chicago senior session that truly reflects who you are.
The Heart Behind It All
In my opinion, the goal of a senior session should be twofold:
- Celebrate you and all that you’ve accomplished at this huge milestone in your life.
- Give you the senior photos you’ve always envisioned of yourself… The kind you’ll look back on years from now and still love.
Ready to start? Amazing!!! Click here to kick off the process. I can’t wait to celebrate your senior year.
