Testimonials

Jean is such a lovely soul! She always keeps photo shoots positive and upbeat, making taking pictures an absolute blast. The pictures she took of me were the first ones I liked in a long time, which helped me build some much needed confidence.

MEREDITH M.

When it comes to senior pictures, Jean Lachat blows everyone else away. This is not just a photo shoot but an experience that allows your child to express themselves as they enter into the adult world. 

JEN W.

The best photographers take photos that speak to you and capture the essence of the person without words. Jean's photos do just that! She is fun, creative, and professional, and her photographs will tell "your story." I am so grateful for the year of photo shoots we did with Jean! Those memories will bring me happiness every time I look at our album and prints.

You are so much more than a yearbook headshot, and it’s time we do something about it.

Together, we’re going to create an undeniably fun and unforgettable senior portrait experience that celebrates everything we love about you, and artwork that fills your heart, and the hearts of everyone who loves, you every time you look at it.

You deserve it!

Let's Get Started

As a mom of two twenty-something daughters, I survived the high school years… twice. The constant stream of “lasts.” Dropping them off at their respective schools. Watching them fly full out with their own wings. Not gonna lie. It was hard.

Since this is likely the last time you’ll have your child professionally photographed until their wedding day, we need to celebrate this rite of passage called senior year. The best way. Because they are so worth it.

It’s my mission to make sure you both remember this moment in the most beautiful way possible. And by remember, I mean forever.

Photographing seniors is one of my favorite things ever, and I would love to make sure it’s one of your favorite things ever, too.
