How Much do Senior Pictures Cost?
The average family spends about $900-$1200 on their son or daughter’s senior picture package, however some spend more, and some spend less. To give some perspective, an 8×10 costs $85, but that’s only if you purchase just 1 8×10 and nothing else. I have some pre-built collections, or you can build your own package! You’ll receive my full price and product catalog when you book your session. When you come in to view your senior pictures and place your order, I’ll put pricing and packages together for you based on what you need and/or want, and to make sure you get the best value for your budget.
Prints – Framed and Canvas, Albums, Products, and Digitals are all available for purchase!
All the images you purchase will be fully retouched – this includes skin smoothing, acne removal, teeth whitening, removal of stray hairs on your face and around your head, and other image enhancements that I feel are needed. Even removing braces and tan lines are included!

We took so many pictures – how will we choose?
You’ll come to my home office in Wareham (or online via Zoom) for your View & Order appointment, and we’ll start out with a fun slideshow video of your session projected on a big screen TV.
Next, we’ll go through all your poses and I’ll help you narrow them down to the ones you love. Then I’ll guide you to match the images you love with the products that you need and want. I can even help you select your yearbook photo!
With state-of-the-art software and photos of the walls in your home, I can show your son or daughter’s portrait scaled to the correct size onto your walls, so you can see exactly what their senior portrait will look like on your wall.
There are many different products to choose from, including framed or canvas wall portraits, custom digital art composites, albums, image boxes, digital albums, digital images and graduation party invitations. I can help you put together a custom Senior Picture Package for your budget.
Free Guide to Choosing a Photographer for Senior Pictures
Senior Year can be overwhelming and involves lots of decisions.
I've created a guide on helping you make one of those decisions - how to choose the best photographer for you for senior pictures! I've been photographing high school seniors on Cape Cod and the Wareham, Plymouth, and Marion area for over 20 years, so I have some insight on what seniors and their parents want.
Perhaps you're coming to Cape Cod for a vacation and have no idea who any of us are! Since I've met so many photographers in my career (I'm currently President of the Professional Photographers Association of Massachusetts), I know what different types of photographers offer and the clients they serve.
It can be distressing to hire the wrong photographer and/or have a bad experience - after all, your time is precious, and high school senior year just happens once in a lifetime!
“She was accommodating, flexible, friendly…made my children comfortable… and we ended up with some pretty fantastic works of art.
Cassandra has taken senior photos for all four of my children. She is a lovely woman who takes gorgeous photos. Why else would I go back 4 times in the span of ten years? She was accommodating, flexible, friendly…made my children comfortable… and we ended up with some pretty fantastic works of art.
I highly recommend this photographer/artist…and if I had any other children, we’d be calling her again! Thank you again, Cassandra!”
When is the best time to book senior pictures?
Now! It’s never too early – I only schedule one senior portrait session on the beach per day, and I do leave dates open every week to leave room for reschedules in case of inclement weather, so dates fill up quickly and far in advance!
The summer goes by quickly – and there’s lots to do – college visits, family vacations, and fall sports start up before school opens. I recommend booking your senior pictures as early in the summer as you can, that way we have time to reschedule if needed because of inclement weather, and we can make sure we meet your yearbook deadline, too.

Do I Get all the Digitals?
Your session fee (except “Speed Session”) does not automatically include any digitals. You can purchase high-resolution printable digitals instead of prints, but honestly it’s not your most economical solution. If your school requires a digital to submit to the yearbook – I will do that for you!
If you just want digitals so you can share your senior pictures with friends and family online (and who doesn’t!), you’ll get – with your order – one of my most popular products – the “MyPix Photo App”, which is a digital photo album that you can download to your smart phone or tablet (there is no limit to who can download and number of times, so you can share with anyone you want), view in a web browser, and share the images on social media. These images are watermarked and not printable. Your app will contain the images that you’ve purchased as a print or in a product, plus you can purchase additional images for it.

I absolutely guarantee you will be thrilled with your senior portraits or I will rephotograph you at no charge, or give you a full refund.
