Celebrating the Amazing Human They've Become

 

 

 

 

This isn't just about cap and gown photos (though we'll nail those too!). This is about celebrating your child's journey. Their personality, their dreams, their unique spark, and the incredible transformation you've witnessed as they've grown into the remarkable young adult they are today.

Why Parents Choose Me for Their Senior's Photos


I understand that getting your teenager excited about photos can be challenging. Most seniors aren't natural 'photo people!' But here's what happens when your teen works with me: I don't force awkward poses or fake smiles. Instead, I help them feel like the confident, amazing person you know they are while capturing images that actually look like THEM.

Parents tell me I'm more like their teen's cool aunt than a formal photographer. And the best part? You'll finally have photos of your child that you absolutely love. Ones that show their personality and the person they've become.

I’m Kathy.

 

I absolutely love working with seniors and their families! As a parent myself, I understand this incredible transition your family is experiencing. The excitement, the nerves, the pride in how far your child has come, and all the emotions you're feeling as a parent.


My goal is to capture not just how your senior looks, but who they ARE and all that you love about them. Their personality, passions, dreams, and that unique spark that makes them amazing deserve to be showcased. I'll help them feel comfortable and confident while we create images that celebrate this milestone and give you beautiful memories of the incredible person they've become.

What Makes Me Different for Your Seniors



After years as an educator working with students just like your child, I understand what they're going through during this major transition. It's exciting but can also feel overwhelming. I won't treat your teen like a little kid or make them feel awkward.


We'll talk about their plans, dreams, and interests, incorporating what makes YOUR child unique into every shot. Whether they're into sports, music, art, or just want to look effortlessly cool, I'll make sure their photos tell THEIR story - the one you're so proud of.

Testimonials

"We had the best experience with Byrd’s Eye Photography. Kathy cared about my senior’s vision and made sure she got the poses, props, and editing perfect for my very picky teenager. It’s the first time my daughter actually complimented photos of herself. We definitely recommend Byrd’s Eye for your photo occasions! Thanks, Kathy!"
