Seniors
Senior photos, just like so many other things in the era of “share and compare”, have morphed into quite a spectacle. I’m not into displays of grandeur that don’t actually have anything to do with YOU.
My hope for you as you step into that vulnerable space in front of my camera -- is that you feel comfortable with me and confident in who you are. Will it be a little bit awkward at first? Yeah, it likely will. But I'll ensure you get comfortable enough to open up and shine. I want to know what makes you smile, and laugh, and feel like the best version of yourself. Bring a friend or family member (or both!) with you! The more the merrier.
I can’t wait to show you just how beautiful you really are.
Dear one, stand your ground. Cultivate the earth around you. See what grows there, what blooms. Adjust accordingly in each season. May hearts flourish around you. May you feel vitality under your feet. May you know, you belong.

a few favorite senior sessions
“I went into the experience of getting my photos taken feeling flustered and nervous. I didn’t really know what to expect, and I’m not one to be super comfortable in front of a camera. As soon as my session began, Haverlee eased my nerves, and we laughed and talked and created. It was a wonderful experience. I knew she would be able to bring out my inner beauty, but my pictures exceeded way beyond any expectations I had. She is extremely talented and personable and comfortable to be around. If you are wanting something different than what you see everywhere else, choose Haverlee. She will listen to your vision and bring out who you are and create magic with you.”

“Haverlee was wonderful during my daughter’s senior pictures! My daughter was nervous getting started, and Haverlee gave her so much confidence! The ideas she had and the risks she took equaled phenomenal photographs. Haverlee is an extremely talented photographer and a joy to work with. ”
