A Better School Portrait Experience:

boston school photographer offering modern, fine-art portraits

I take a different approach—one that slows things down, lets kids be themselves, and results in natural, timeless portraits that parents actually love.

The best part? I make the process seamless for schools and stress-free for parents while keeping prices on par with the big school photo companies. That means:


School photos don’t have to be rushed, generic, or an ordeal for everyone involved.

✅ More time with each child – No conveyor-belt photos here. I actually interact with kids to bring out natural expressions.

✅ Fine art meets school portraits – Thoughtful composition, beautiful lighting, and authentic connection.

✅ Local & personal service – I’m not a faceless company. I’m a professional Boston school photographer and a parent, and I care about getting this right for families.

✅ Easy online ordering – No pre-paying for photos you haven’t seen. Parents get a private gallery and choose what they love.

✅ 15% donated back – A portion of all profits goes back to your school.

Most large school photo companies prioritize efficiency. They hire inexperienced photographers, pay them minimum wage, and move through hundreds of kids as quickly as possible. The result? Forced smiles, rushed photos, and a forgettable experience.

I do things differently.

Artful portraits. Real connection. premium quality. 

As a Boston school photographer with years of experience working with children, I know how to bring out genuine expressions—whether your student is shy, silly, sensitive, or somewhere in between. I combine professional-level lighting and composition with a child-centered approach that gives every student a chance to be seen.

  • AI face-finding

Want more than just portraits?

Let Me Capture the Heart of Your School.

This session can be added on at a discounted rate for schools that book portraits with me. I’ll spend time on campus during a typical day and deliver a set of brand-quality images you can use year-round.

Let me help you tell your school’s story—visually, honestly, and beautifully.

  • Your school’s website
  • Social media
  • Admissions materials
  • Fundraising or event promotion

Still have questions?

Where do you take the photos—inside or outside?

Wherever works best for your space! My gear is fully battery-powered, so I can create a professional setup in a classroom, gym, or outdoor area.

What should kids wear?

Parents receive a Student Prep Guide before picture day with simple, stress-free tips. In short:

  • Solid colors or small patterns work best
  • Avoid large logos or neon tones
  • Let kids feel comfortable—it shows in the photos


Do you offer sibling and class photos?

Yes—siblings by request, and class group photos for all classrooms. Faculty headshots are included at no cost.



Do parents have to prepay?

Nope! They can preview images before they decide to buy. If they want to pre-load funds, AdvancePay is available, but it's totally optional.




Are you more expensive than other companies?

Not at all. My pricing for prints and digitals is comparable to big companies, but the quality and experience are in a completely different league.
