Senior year is a once-in-a-lifetime season, and your portraits should feel just as special.

Your session is relaxed and fully guided, allowing you to feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. From natural posing to thoughtful location choices and styling guidance, every detail is carefully planned so your portraits feel authentic, polished, and uniquely yours.

As a senior portrait photographer serving Waukesha County and the surrounding Lake Country area, my goal is to create an experience that feels personal, fun, and memorable from start to finish. If you're ready to celebrate your senior year with portraits that truly reflect who you are, I would love to help you create something meaningful you'll look back on for years to come.

Cake smash and milestone sessions

Cake smash and milestone sessions are exactly as chaotic and adorable as they sound — and we are here for every messy, joyful second of it. Whether your little one is diving face-first into their first birthday cake or hitting one of those blink-and-you'll-miss-it milestones, these 30-minute mini sessions are designed to capture all of it.


We start with sweet, posed portraits before letting the real fun begin. Studio props, setups, and black and white versions are all included, and you'll have your sneak peek within 48 hours. 10 fully edited digital images are included with your private online gallery with full print release — plus access to our professional print lab so you can get that precious little face on your wall where it belongs. Can't narrow it down to just five? Additional images are available for purchase directly from your gallery.


Bring a cake, a change of outfit, and maybe an extra bib — or reach out about our fake cake option if you want all the adorable photos without the sugar rush. We'll handle everything else!
