Destination Senior Session

Any guesses where this destination senior session was? Or who this Oak Creek High School senior session was for? My own son! I wasn’t sure about opening this can of worms with my kids, and letting them choose a location for their senior photos. Welp, I opened it! So here we are!

Special Photos

My own kids have had their special photos taken every year around their birthday’s for their entire lives! I’ve taken their pics all around the Milwaukee area and beyond. So for their high school senior photos, I decided to do something extra special for them. Letting them choose a beautiful location to go, instead of photographing their senior pics at a local spot we’ve been to in the past!

Olympic National Park

Sawyer always wanted to travel out to the Pacific Northwest and check it out. He loves the outdoors, and being Up North in Wisconsin is one of his favorite places to go. We started looking for great spots in the Pacific Northwest, and decided on Olympic National Park in Washington State for his senior photo session! Olympic National Park looked like the ultimate Up North! It was absolutely gorgeous, and reminded me of a Disney summer camp movie set. Olympic National Park has everything from a view of the mountains at Hurricane Ridge, to the moss covered tress in the Hoh Rainforest, and countless miles of stunning rocky coastline. We had absolutely no shortage of stunning locations, it was absolutely perfect for a high school senior photography session!

High School Senior Photos

The main purpose of traveling to Washington State was for my son’s high school senior pics, but we defiantly made it into a family vacation as well! Some of the gorgeous locations were almost 2 hours from the spot we stayed in. So trying to navigate lighting/locations with sight seeing was incredibly tough! My family and I were all quite exhausted, and most locations we were at in mid-day sun. Any good photographer knows, mid day sun is very rough to work with! Although this wasn’t super ideal, his class of 2027 high school senior photos turned out absolutely amazing. Something I know he will never forget!
