My Approach

My approach to senior photography is rooted in connection and individuality. I truly love working one-on-one with each senior, taking the time to get to know who they are, what they love, and how they want to be seen.


As a mom, I know how quickly these seasons pass. One minute they’re learning to walk, and the next they’re choosing their college sweatshirt and preparing for what comes next. My goal is to slow down this moment and capture the person they’ve become — their personality, confidence, and the little things that make them uniquely them.

My Process

01.

Contact form

Every great session starts with a simple hello. Fill out the contact form with a few details about your senior and what you’re envisioning for their session. I’ll get back to you with availability, session information, and everything you need to get started.

02.

Consultation

Before the session, we’ll hop on a quick virtual consultation. This is our chance to get to know each other, talk about your senior’s personality and style, and start planning the details that will make their session feel authentic and relaxed.

03.

Session Day

This is where the fun begins. Your senior session is designed to be relaxed, confidence-boosting, and truly centered around your senior. I’ll guide you through everything so your senior can simply show up, be themselves, and enjoy the experience.

04.

Photo Selection

1–2 weeks after your session, you’ll receive an online gallery featuring the best images from your Senior Experience. You’ll choose your favorite 20 images to be fully retouched and included with your session. Additional products available for purchase.

I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with Jaci not once but twice! I had no idea what to expect with my first daughter’s photo session but Jaci helped to make what could have been a stressful event stress free. Of course, when it was time to take my second daughter’s photos, there was no doubt I was going back to Jaci. She provided many great locations for our photo shoot and was wonderful with making the girls feel at ease throughout the process. Jaci was very attentive and always responded quickly with answers to my questions. The final product/pictures were amazing and the quality was above what I could have expected. Jaci is a wonderful, caring person/photographer. I would highly recommend her!!

FAQ

 

How far in advance should we book?

I recommend booking your senior session 2–4 months in advance, especially if you're hoping for a specific season, location, or date. Fall evenings and peak senior season tend to fill up quickly.

If you're planning a session on shorter notice, don't hesitate to reach out! I occasionally have last-minute openings or schedule changes, and I'd love to see if I can make something work—especially if you have a specific vision or deadline in mind.

What should I wear?

Choose outfits that feel comfortable, confident, and true to your style. Most seniors bring 4-5 outfits to create variety in their photos. Once you're booked, I’ll guide you through outfit ideas and help you choose pieces that photograph well.

Do parents need to attend the session?

Yes — a parent or guardian should attend the session. Many parents enjoy being there to watch the experience and help with outfits or encouragement.

Where will the session take place?

Sessions typically take place at outdoor locations around Metro Detroit that provide beautiful light and variety. During our consultation, we’ll talk about locations that match your personality and style.

What happens if the weather is bad?

In the event of poor weather, your session will be rescheduled to the next available date that works for both of us.

Can we include hobbies, sports, or personal interests?

Yes! I encourage seniors to bring anything that represents their personality, passions, or accomplishments—from sports and instruments to hobbies and meaningful keepsakes.

How do I choose my images?

1–2 weeks after your session, you’ll receive your private gallery featuring the best images from your Senior Experience. From there, you’ll choose your favorite 20 images to be fully retouched and included with your session. Additional digital images, professional prints, and custom heirloom albums are available for purchase directly through your gallery store.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes! Flexible payment options are available through Affirm and Klarna, allowing you to break your investment into smaller payments. You can choose the option that works best for your family during checkout.
