Through photography, we are celebrating the achievements of the graduate at the finish line, but we are also honoring all the experiences which collectively contribute to the important rite of passage of graduation day. The campus is a sacred ground overflowing with critical and special moments for the graduate. It is a place where transformations and new adult identities find sun.

My sessions for college graduates usually lasts longer than other sessions, but it is so important for me to artfully document all the different locations on their campus that have meaning for the graduate. Symbolically, we bless and say farewell with each click of the shutter— as we hop from the library steps to the Quad, from the Quad to the Union, from there to a favorite bench in front of the Music building…

The photographs from my college graduate portrait sessions will be cherished for lifetimes. They will be looked upon forever by the graduate with nostalgia and love. They will spark stories told to curious children who in turn will share those stories with their children. They may inspire a loved one toward higher education. They may cause tears of joy for a memory.

I am a photographer who is dedicated to spending the time with your graduate to artfully document not just the cap and gown shot, but a variety of photographs that are meaningful to your graduate. I understand the importance of graduation and what this rite of passage means, and it is reflected in my work. I am a photographer who works in tandem, so each session is tailor-made to your graduate. If this is what you are looking for in a photographer, I would love to be part of your college graduate’s celebration!
