Cheers to the Graduate: Celebrating This Big Milestone 



Graduation is more than just a cap and gown—it’s the celebration of years of hard work, growth, late nights, early mornings, and unforgettable memories. I had the absolute joy of photographing this amazing college grad and capturing the pride, excitement, and sense of accomplishment that comes with closing one chapter and stepping into the next.


From the campus landmarks to tossing the cap in the air, we hit all the must-haves—and mixed in some fun, natural portraits that truly captured Karley's amazing personality. Whether we’re celebrating the start of a new job, a move to a new city, or just soaking in the moment, this session was full of joy and purpose.


 What to Expect from a College Grad Session

  • Classic Cap + Gown Shots – Whether in front of the school sign or walking across campus.
  • Casual Portraits – Outfits that feel like you (jeans, dresses, suits—whatever makes you feel confident).
  • Fun Details – Think champagne pops, letterboards, decorated caps, or your degree in hand.


Make It Meaningful


We can shoot on campus, at your favorite study spot, or somewhere off-campus that feels more like you. This is your story—we’ll document it your way.



Ready to Celebrate?


Whether you’re graduating from UMD, CSS, UW-Superior or beyond, I’d love to help you commemorate this incredible achievement with a session that celebrates everything you’ve accomplished (and everything ahead).
