What is a Grad Session?


Grad sessions are meant to celebrate and mark the transition into adulthood. They are intended to be a fun experience that captures your teen's personality and delivers photos you and your family can appreciate for many years. Our experience as senior photographers helps ensure your teen feels comfortable and exudes confidence as we create timeless images together.


Our grad sessions work entirely around which location feels fitting and whether a more posed or candid style is going to be the most representative of your teen's personality. You can choose between a 60-minute or 90-minute session at one of our two studios, a one-hour session at a location of your choice, and a combination of studio and on-location sessions.

Depending on which session you choose, your rising senior will be able to bring anywhere from three to four outfits. We always suggest bringing more, rather than less. If your teen plays a sport we would love for them to bring in their sportswear and sports equipment! Or if your teen loves to read, do art or has a hobby, you can always have them bring their props with them.

What Families are saying about us!

“We have been traveling this past month, but I wanted to write and thank you for a great photo session experience with your studio! Our son was photographed by Ansel and she did a fantastic job. She put him at ease and got some great images. We ordered a digital package from you last week and are excited to print them. Anyway, thanks again to you and to Ansel for a great experience. I have encouraged friends who have seniors to book a session at Studio M!”

“Thank you so much Michael, you guys are always so great with pics and parent requests lol! Much appreciated :)”

“Ansel is an awesome photographer! Had such a great time at my daughter's senior pics session. She was passionate about her art, fun and had so much energy. She really made it a special experience to remember. Can't wait to see the photos.”

“WE LOVED OUR EXPERIENCE WITH STUDIO M AND LOVE QUINCY'S PHOTOS”

“Thank you, thank you, thank you. I cannot tell you how much we love our images of Thomas. He never smiles for us, but you guys got him not only smiling, but really looking happy - just how he normally is when I don't try to take his picture.”

“We felt taken care of by the staff and it was amazing how the company went out of their way to do their best for us.”

“Thank you so much, she had such a fun time. I appreciate your team for making this a memorable experience for her.”
