The Senior Sessions

Exclusive, Elevated Photography for High School Seniors

 
 

What is a Senior Session with Michelle Gardella?

In a sea of basic senior sessions, my senior sessions are designed to feel intentional and FUN! I am here to celebrate and capture the incredible authenticity that God blessed you with! An hour set aside to capture who you are in this beautiful, fleeting chapter of life. No need to feel nervous! I am the world’s biggest silly goose, and our time together will be filled with laughter and awesome memories. As a mama to 23- and 16-year-olds, I cherish this chapter of life and understand how meaningful and special these moments are to you and your family. My hope is that these photographs become more than just images—that they feel like a reflection of you, honest and lasting, and something you can return to long after this season has passed.

What is the cost?

Each Senior Session is $350 and includes one person, two locations, lasts 60 minutes, and allows up to 2 outfit changes. Additional people are absolutely welcome for $50 each. Afterward, you’ll receive a curated digital gallery where you can download your images and, if you wish, order prints, albums, or graduation cards to hold onto these moments in a more tangible way.

Examples of Senior Sessions are:

  • Editorial shoots held outside

  • Cap and Gown shoots

  • Best Friend sessions

  • College Announcements

Do you have a Senior Rep Team?

Yes, but this experience is intentionally different from anything else you may have heard about.

My Senior Rep Collective is highly selective, inviting only four girls each year to participate. Each of my girls is truly spoiled. You will receive a welcome basket, a complimentary senior session with me (including your full digital gallery), and unlimited styling consultations so you feel completely confident and beautiful in front of the camera.

From there, a year-long, exclusive editorial senior experience unfolds.

You may book additional sessions at 50% off, or earn them for free by referring your friends. For every two girls who book using your name, you’ll receive another complimentary session! The more you share, the more we create together!

Included in your experience:

• A complimentary Senior Session

• A complimentary Senior Rep Collective group shoot

• The opportunity to book Summer, Fall, Winter, and Cap & Gown sessions at 50% off

• Or earn additional FREE sessions through referrals!

My 2027 team has space for one more girl in either Bastrop or LaGrange, Texas. My Smithville, Texas girls have already been selected.
