Capturing the personality of your high school senior

Show your individuality in your senior pictures

Your options are practically unlimited. Show your athleticism. Create a themed photo session based on a favorite hobby. Pose with your pet. Show your style. We’ll create a one-of-a-kind photo shoot just for you!

Don’t worry that you won’t look good in your photos. We’re committed that your personality shines through. We’re also skilled at retouching photos—those blemishes aren’t a permanent feature, so we’ll remove them.

Our goal is to help you to look comfortable and confident while we help you to pose in a way that brings out the best in you!

Our senior portrait process

1. Free Consultation

Fill out our contact form or call us to schedule your free consultation. You can choose to talk over the phone or come in and see our great studio space where we’ll discuss what you want to achieve from your photo session. Then we’ll set a date and collect the $200 non-refundable booking fee.

2. Preparation

Decide what you’d like to wear in your photos and let us know at least a couple of days in advance. That way we can prepare backdrops to go with your clothes. Prepare to do your own hair and makeup. Check out our tips for the best clothing, hair and makeup.

3. Your Personal Photo Session

Now it’s time to get comfortable in our big photo studio and have some fun! We’ll guide you along the way and we promise not to rush your session. Afterward, you’ll have the opportunity to take a look at your photos.

4. Choose your favorite images

We’ll retouch the photos you selected according to your preferences. Then we’ll invite you back to see them again and select what you’d like to purchase (see packages and pricing). With your 50% deposit, we’ll get to work printing your photos and let you know when you can pick them up.

What do senior portraits cost?

When we schedule your appointment, we will ask for a $200 studio booking fee to reserve your 2-hour spot.  Your session includes up to 5 wardrobe changes, image review, and selection time.

Our professionally retouched prints start at $275 for individual photos.  For a better value, we offer portrait collections starting at $1200. Some people spend $300, some spend $5000 or more. What you spend is entirely up to you. Complimentary digital versions of your prints are included with your purchase.

Your satisfaction is important to us. You're not obligated to purchase anything you don't want. If you don’t like any of your photos, come back for another session and we’ll waive the booking fee.

What people say about our senior portrait photography

“Risë is exactly the kind of photographer I was looking for! She took the time to get to know my daughter (and even me!), what she likes, dislikes, and how she’s most comfortable for her Sr. pictures. My daughter had such a fun time and the pictures turned out even better than I expected. I couldn’t stop looking at them! She actually captured my daughter’s essence in such a beautiful and natural way. I highly recommend Risë for any photography needs. We will definitely be using her again.”

~ Danielle Egli

“We are very pleased with the Senior pictures we purchased from Windell Portraits. The headshots are particularly amazing, as our son was relaxed and able to be himself. We also had some done of our two sons together, and even some with our dog. Risë was very easy to work with, extremely patient in reviewing the photos, and very generous with her time.”

~ Paula Correll
