WELCOME TO YOUR BEST DAY EVER!

Senior Portrait Sessions in Orange County - 5 Signature Experiences

For Parents...

It’s a beautifully documented milestone - all you have to do is show up and watch them shine (maybe cry a little; cheer a lot).

For your senior...

It’s a fully styled, one-on-one experience built entirely around who you are right now - because so much changes after graduation. This is the most PARAMOUNT year of your life; the last homecoming game, endless college apps, last prom, and finally… graduation. These memories deserve to be UNFORGETTABLE!

With 30+ years behind the lens, I’ve turned senior portraits into a full experience, not just a yearbook photo. Senior year is BONKERS - but I’ve got you. This is a whole adventure, with pictures to prove it happened.

"Where do I start?! Chele was absolutely incredible to work with! She listened to Ashlye and worked with her to create beautiful, custom photographs that were all about Ashlye’s creativity and style. From consultation to reveal day, the process was seamless, fun and made to be all about my daughter!! I can’t recommend Chele enough, she is a true artist, and consummate professional who makes her clients feel like rockstars!! As a parent, I will be forever grateful you captured Ashlye’s essence and spirit with stunning photos and art that we will have for generations to come!!"

"Everything about my daughter's senior pictures experience was perfect, Chele went above and beyond making the perfect day of shooting. We came from Las Vegas to take pictures with her, she is very easy and fun to work with. I love how all her photos came out, they are so beautiful to look at, the quality is great, I feel so proud displaying these!! It was a day my family and I will always remember!"

Emily Paul

"Chele created an experience of a lifetime for my Senior. Our shoot locations took us to Los Angeles, and she even found a place for us to get an iconic shot on a palm-tree lined street. If your kid is bursting with personality, style, talent, and creativity, I highly recommend Chele! We ended up with the COOLEST photos ever!"

Dianna Stark

"Chele is such a gifted artist and an incredible human being. Every photo she takes is an absolute masterpiece. The color, the angles, the environment--all carefully crafted and curated. You will shine! The styling, the planning of every detail and every location, down to the last minute is amazing to watch. She goes out of her way to make it an absolutely magical experience going above and beyond all expectations. I wish I could give her 10 stars!"

Christina Finley-Iwason

"My daughter's pictures officially break the curse of the boring senior photo. In my opinion, Michele's use of color, thoughtfulness of location and her gift of capturing the student's personality is unmatched. I am beyond in love with our photos!"

June An

"If I could give Chele and Frank more than 5 stars I would. Booking was a breeze and they are very easy to work with. I booked a mini session for my senior and it was perfect. Frank captured the essence of my kid and even got some smiling photos for mom and dad. We are thrilled with the final product!"

Diana Newkirk

"Chele photographed our daughter’s senior pictures and did an absolutely amazing job!! Chele is the sweetest and most talented photographer we could’ve hoped for. My daughter is an artsy kind of girl who wanted a different experience than a standard senior portrait sitting. Chele collaborated with her and absolutely delivered. Now we have beautiful photographs of this important milestone and our daughter has even more beautiful memories of the whole experience. Thank you Chele!"
