Senior Portraits with Henry David

Timeless portraits. Tangible legacy.
Senior year is a milestone worth honoring with more than just pictures. I create bold, expressive portraits and transform them into beautifully printed keepsakes: artwork your family can enjoy for decades.

What to Expect

These are relaxed, guided sessions tailored to your senior’s personality and interests.
I’ll help plan wardrobe, locations, and the overall story we want to tell, then we’ll bring it to life with beautiful outdoor portraits.

After the session, you’ll receive a curated gallery of fully edited images to review and select from.

Artwork Designed to Last

Every image you choose is professionally retouched and printed in high-end, handcrafted formats:

  • Heirloom Albums — bound in linen or leather, custom-designed to showcase your senior’s story

  • Gallery Wall Art — striking metal or acrylic prints, made to archival standards

  • Museum-Grade Prints — designed for prominent display and long-term preservation

Your session includes a generous credit toward any of these heirloom pieces.

These are portraits meant to be seen, held, and remembered, not just scrolled past.

Ready to Begin?

Let me know your preferred timeline, and I’ll help you design a session that reflects your senior’s unique energy and personality—then turn it into something beautifully printed and lasting.

How It Works

  1. Reach out to book and start the planning process

  2. We’ll choose outfits, locations, and the session direction

  3. Enjoy a fun, low-pressure shoot with professional guidance throughout

  4. You’ll receive a beautifully edited image gallery and select favorites for your album or wall art.
