Here in the South, specifically where my photography studio is located in Charlotte, North Carolina, you have a few different options for sending graduation announcements and ceremony invites. In Charlotte, most high schools are contracted with big portrait studios. Usually in the summer of your junior year you go to your high school or to […]

This winter I had the honor of photographing one of my dearest friends son for his senior pictures. We headed to Downtown Waxhaw, a suburb of Charlotte, NC. Although not technically, because it’s a different county, but, as usual I digress. I love taking the guys to Waxhaw for their senior pictures because it is […]

Let’s get real for a minute. I want to talk about body positivity in regards to teenage girls, my clients. I’m quite aware that teenage girls struggle with body image and I have often wondered if being a senior portrait photographer aids in this belief. I want nothing more than to empower my team of […]

I have been wanting to do a grunge graffiti skateboard senior portrait session for as long as I can remember. Through the years I had imagined doing it in NODA, a trendy neighborhood in Uptown Charlotte where there was plenty of colorful murals or at the skate park in Waxhaw. Recently, the hubs took me […]

She was eager for the change in location. Tyler opted for my two-hour Gold session which comes with two locations, multiple outfit changes, outfit styling and professional makeup. […]

I think my favorite thing about shooting with Emma is her constant smile and easy-going nature. I actually met Emma a long time ago back when her and my daughter attended the same grade school. It’s been like that this year because this is the graduating year of my daughter and all her friends. Kids […]

Last year as we headed into fall many of you locals may recall the sunflower field on Providence Road in Waxhaw. The field was planted anonymously for all to enjoy, gather, and take pictures. We were all super excited because now there is a place right here in Charlotte for gorgeous sunflower senior portraits. One […]

Each year high school juniors from the entire Charlotte-Mecklenburg region are invited to apply for NBP’s senior model team.
