HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?

At your View and Order Appointment you select what you would like to order from a curated Product Catalog including ePortraits (high res. digital images), Prints, Wall Art and Albums. Don't worry, I help you through the entire order process. Typical investment can range from $1500-$4000+.

Sure, digital images are great for Instagram, but there’s nothing like holding a stunning portrait in your hands. Professionally printed senior photos become heirloom-quality artwork, wall art, albums and keepsakes that stand the test of time. Senior Portraits are a celebration of a journey, and they deserve to be displayed, not just stored on a phone.

HOW MUCH IS SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHY IN IOWA CITY

VIEW FULL PRODUCT CATALOG

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?: I am located at 132 1/2 E Washington St in the middle of Downtown Iowa City by appointment only. Beware, the door is a little hidden. The studio is above Jimmy John's on the second floor. Jut pretend you're going into Jimmy John's and my door is right next to JJ's door under the overhang. The studio is not wheel chair accessible but I can accommodate and come to you!
WHAT IF I LIVE FAR AWAY?: No worries! We can plan facetime or zoom meetings for your consult and order; then you can choose an area or town that you like. Maybe you want to check out Iowa City and get locations that none of your friends will have OR I can come to you and scout the perfect spots in your home town. Mileage and travel expenses will be determined case by case.
DO I NEED PRO HAIR AND MAKEUP?: It’s 100% up to you, however if you ask me I say absolutely not! I want you to look and feel like YOU in your pics and if that means simple hair styling and minimal makeup…I’m down. If you are the kind of gal that wants to go full glam…go for it! There are a few session options so you can get the exact experience that you want. DIY your look or go pro or meet in the middle. Find out more info on all the session options the Senior Magazine, contact me for your digital copy.
HOW DOES A SESSION WORK? DO I HAVE TO COME UP WITH MY OWN POSES AND LOCATIONS?: You have nothing to worry about, I got you. I’m going to match your outfits with the perfect spot for your style and outfit choice within (or close to) the town we are in. Then I show you exactly how to pose and direct you from behind the camera, even including when to be serious, smile or making you laugh. The photo shoot is super fun and easy going. We meet at the first location and start from there. I even bring a portable changing tent so you don’t have to go in any questionable bathrooms along the way.
CAN I BRING A FRIEND TO MY SESSION?: Yes please! I love it when friends join in on the fun. They can be there to help with your outfits and styling and act as the “hair police”. Sometimes I have them assist me with the reflector and I almost always have them take over my SnapChat story for BTS! And, of course, they jump in a photo or two. Bring your bestie, significant partner or sibling and of course a parent or guardian should also come along. Mom, get yourself picture ready and get in front of the camera too!

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

Your senior portraits should be a representation of YOU. Think about what your favorite pieces of clothing are and put together outfits around those! The key to a well rounded session is variety and accessories. Choose outfits that range from formal to casual that have a various neck lines and lengths. Then finish them off with accessories like jewelry, jackets, hats or scarves. Follow #jephotogoutfitideas to get more wardrobe inspiration!

Did you know that I can actually help you choose the perfect outfits? We get together before your session for a styling consultation and I can help you narrow down your favorite looks, choose shoes to match each outfit or pull pieces right out of your closet!

Everyone session includes a Session Prep Guide with more tips and outfit inspiration. It guides you through finding out your skin undertone to pick the perfect clothing colors and even includes a skin and nail care timeline!
