styling & Planning
Karly took amazing photographs of my daughter for her high school graduation. Karly was fun and put us at ease right away which allowed her to catch some really great photos. Karly has a great ability to identify great spots in a location she wasn't familiar with. She also was very intentional in her use of sunlight to enhance the photos. Highly recommend and am trying to think of other reasons for her to take more photos of my family!
"highly recommend Karly for senior pictures!"
Karly was extremely accommodating and sweet. My daughter adored her as well as her kindness. They seemed to click so well! Not only is Karly personable but she is so sweet. She welcomed our whole family to my daughter’s senior session without any issue. I wish I could give 10 stars ✨
"An amazing senior photographer!"

Senior portraits take place outdoors, in meaningful locations, or at carefully chosen spots that match your style. I help select locations for senior portraits in Martinsburg, WV and surrounding areas. If you have a special place in mind, just ask!

Absolutely. Most seniors feel this way at first! I guide you through every pose and movement making it easy for you to feel comfortable and confident!
