From your
PHOTOGRAPHER As your senior photographer, I get to capture this beautiful, unique snapshot of your life, right now. You and your whole family will look back on these photos for years to come, and I want you to remember all of THIS: these magical days, the unknowns and the triumphs, the dreaming and sparkling life that defines you. I’m a professional photographer in Lincoln, Nebraska and I’ve been photographing seniors for seven years. My photo style is warm, authentic and passionate. I’m inspired by fashion + editorial styling, but I also take most of my inspiration from the personalities of the kind-hearted, strongwilled, brave, big-dreamer personalities of the incredible seniors I get to work with. My loves: messy bouquets of flowers, gummy bears, fluffy lattes, deep thoughts, foster parenting, flannel sheets, and cozy evenings at home with my husband and little boys.

ORDERING APPOINTMENT
n
Your photo reveal will be about three weeks after your senior session, when you and your parent(s) will come into my studio to view your finished photos for the very first time. You’ll choose how you want to display and archive your beautiful images for years to come. Ordering appointments are fun, easy and pressure free. As a full service photographer, I love to help my clients through the ordering process, rather than tossing your photos in an online gallery and leaving you to figure everything out! You’ll be confident that you’ve made the right purchases, learned all of the options, and gotten the best deals. You’ll place your entire order at once - and then all you’ll need to do is sit back and wait. Your beautiful products will be available for pickup at the studio within two to four weeks after your ordering session. Payment plans are available.

Go Pro
You deserve to look incredible at your senior shoot! Professional hair and makeup styling is not only tons of fun and a super special experience, but it’s SO important to a smooth, easy photo shoot. Pro makeup can look very special and even dramatic without looking overdone, which can be a hard balance to strike for many of my clients. I’ve also found that some foundations and powders on the market can make skin appear washed-out on camera - so I prefer to leave the makeup to the professionals! Your senior shoot deserves makeup that’s long-lasting, and you need a look that is best suited to your facial structure and skin tone. Hairstyling is also an important addition to your shoot! Your stylist can apply a high-end products and processes so your style lasts throughout your shoot. As you know, Nebraska can bring us some unpredictable and extreme weather - windy, humid, hot - and that can ruin styling pretty quickly. And we don’t want sticky, crunchy or over-worked hair, either! We want style, but with MOVEMENT. Professional styled hair can look natural and effortless, while still bringing the WOW factor. I only book the best and most experienced salon professionals in Lincoln and Omaha, who often work with high school seniors and are skilled at creating special yet age appropriate styling. With your team of professional hair and makeup stylists, you’ll look as great in the last photo as you do in the first. Oh... and you’ll definitely want to schedule a date or fun girls night afterwards, because you’ll still look and feel TOTALLY amazing!

What to
EXPECT
THE CONSULT
Ease your mind about all the details of your shoot! We’ll meet up a few weeks before the shoot (with parents too!) to talk about your outfits, locations, and other details. And I’ll answer any questions you have about the process. We will also go over the product options in detail.
WARDROBE
I know it’s super important and maybe a little stressful to get your outfits JUST RIGHT - so I provide you with a beautiful magazine full of gorgeous photos, illustrating different trends and styles. You’ll learn how to dress for your body type, and choose the best colors to compliment your hair and skin tones! There are guides for accessories, skin care, layering, and LOTS of inspiration. I also have some carefully curated Pinterest boards to help you get inspired. If you aren’t sure about an outfit as you’re putting it together, just text me a photo, and I can help you confirm which outfits will photograph best.
EDITING
Each photo you see at your ordering session will be carefully edited so you’ll look your very best! I do even more careful retouches for all purchased images, and sometimes work with a professional retoucher to get a perfect yet realistic look.
SOCIAL MEDIA
For every image you purchase (whether in an album, a print or a high-res digital image) you’ll get that same image in a smaller (non-printable) version to keep on your phone and share across social media.
LOCATIONS
Sometimes we might head to someplace a little unexpected or off the beaten path, and we might have to get our feet wet or dirty…BUT, I promise, if you’re up for the challenge, it is always worth the effort! My goal is to take you to places that fit YOU... whether that place might be a moody coffeehouse with angled light, a bright and glossy museum, or an expance of calm, soft prairie grass. Whether or not you have specific ideas in mind yet, we’ll work together and plan out the perfect spots at your pre-shoot consultation.
HOW TO BOOK
To give the best experience to each senior client, I only take a limited number of senior shoots each year. Your session fee + signed agreement holds your space on my calendar!
