Your Formal Experience

PRE-SESSION

BOOK YOUR SESSION EARLY!

I book my formal sessions out a few months in advance and have to turn seniors away every year because I’m completely sold out! Email me as soon as your school has confirmed the date and I will send you a link to my questionannaire + contract to lock you in.

SESSION DAY

On the day of your photo shoot, we will meet at a specified spot, where I know the light will be amazing to show off your beautiful suit / gown, makeup and accessories.

Depending on the session you choose, we will move around the get different looks and capture some amazing core memories!

POST-SESSION

After the session, I will go through all of your images, and pick the absolute best (and erase all the eye-blinks).

You will be sent an online gallery to view them from your comfy bed.

Your images will be delivered within 48 hours. You can download your gallery of images with a click of a button.

Heading into the final year of school is exciting, scary and full on. Celebrate this life stage - your entire senior year is filled with milestones. 

It’s so much more than just your last year of high school.  It may be your last year with your school friends, living at home and being under your parent’s wings.  Aside from the significance of graduation, there has been 13 years of laughter, tears and late nights studying and it’s time to celebrate!

Make it the moment, the experience to always remember.

Because, this moment will just be another story someday.

“It was so fun and lighthearted!”

“The shoot was absolutely amazing! It was so fun and lighthearted which made me feel really comfortable. The best part was when Carly was telling me to do those typical straight-faced teenanger poses, I found that really funny becuase it’s so true - she knew how to make us feel comfortable. I would definatley recommend Carly for formals”.
