You’re Not Just Another Senior Session—You’re a Story Waiting to Be Told

Hey, I’m Dan—and my favorite part of being a photographer isn’t just creating cool images (though yes, we’ll definitely do that).

It’s getting to know you.

The real you.

The you that your friends know, the one that shows up when you’re comfortable, laughing, and just being yourself.

I believe everyone has a story worth telling.

Not just the loudest voice in the room or the one with the biggest accomplishments—but every senior.

You don’t need to know how to pose or feel totally confident in front of the camera. That’s what I’m here for—to guide you, make you feel at ease, and help you show up as your true self.

Before I was behind the camera, I spent over a decade as a graphic artist. That creative background still shapes how I see and capture things—through light, design, and emotion. And while I’ve been lucky enough to earn some major awards over the years (even represented Team USA in the Photographic World Cup), what really drives me is helping people feel seen and confident through the images we create together.

This isn’t about stiff poses or forced smiles.

It’s about telling your story in a way that feels genuine and powerful—something you’ll look back on and say, “Yep, that’s me.”

When I’m not shooting, I’m probably out on a trail somewhere, covered in paint from an art project, or sitting by the campfire with my wife and our dog. But no matter where I am, I’m always chasing creativity—and looking for the next great story to tell.
