As an animal lover myself, I completely understand how important our pets are to our families. (Though I have to admit, all of your well-behaved pups have put my little Miss Lucy to shame—she loves to misbehave!) After many sessions with furry friends, I’ve put together a few helpful tips to make sure your session goes smoothly and everyone, including your pets, has a great time.

Senior portraits are such a special milestone, and my goal is to make the entire experience fun, stress-free, and truly reflective of who you are.

The key is to plan ahead, choose outfits that feel authentic to you, and pick a season that fits your vision. No matter where we shoot—whether in Boulder, Colorado Springs, or a dreamy mountain backdrop—your senior session should be an unforgettable experience that captures this exciting time in your life.
