Jen Taylor Photography

Jen Taylor Photography Natural light photographer specializing in portrait and senior sessions. I will often direct, but prefer to take a more candid approach to photography.

My style is taking a step back to observe natural interaction and waiting for the right moment to capture a moment you and your loved ones will treasure for a lifetime.

Ever wonder what actually happens during a senior session?

Here's a little behind-the-scenes look! ✨

These photos alternate between behind-the-scenes moments (captured by Senior’s Mom!) and the finished images I created.

One of the biggest things I hear from seniors is:�"I'm going to be so awkward.”�or�"I have no idea how to pose."
Good news...you don't have to.

I'll guide you through the entire session with simple prompts, natural movement, and easy posing so you never have to wonder what to do next. My goal is for you to feel relaxed, confident, and completely yourself. 🤍

Class of 2027, I'm so excited to meet you!

Sophia | Class of 2026

Every senior’s story is unique, and Sophia’s is no exception.

Sophia graduated early, and I loved capturing this exciting chapter of her life at Juniper Creek Farm. We were going for a relaxed country vibe, and she absolutely brought it to life. Her boyfriend joined in for a few photos, such a sweet way to remember this season together.

Wrapping up my Class of 2026 seniors with Sophia feels like the perfect way to end an incredible season. 🤍

Benjamin | LRHS Class of 2026

I met Benjamin at the beautiful Seminary campus in Wake Forest for a Cap & Gown Mini session after some of the craziness of Senior year had passed.
This fall, he’s headed to UNC, and I can’t wait to see all that the future holds for him.

Congrats, Benjamin! Wishing you an incredible first year and so much success in Chapel Hill!

Message me to join my fall waitlist! I’ll contact my waitlist first if I have any extra openings or unused rain dates become available. 🤍

Fall Senior Sessions Are Now Open!

Fall is perfect for cooler weather (less or no humidity!), the ability to mix summer and fall outfits, rich seasonal colors, and that soft, golden evening light that makes everything feel warm and glowing…just a few reasons to book your senior session in the fall!

Whether you're dreaming of an open field surrounded by fall color, a downtown urban vibe, or a location that’s meaningful to you (bring your pup 🐾 or incorporate your favorite hobbies), we’ll create a session that feels uniquely you. My waitlist had early access, and dates are already filling quickly. October has just one weekend date remaining, so if you have a specific date in mind, don’t wait to reserve your session.

If fall feels too soon or you’re leaning toward spring, you’re welcome to join my interest list for early access—spring dates will open to the public in early January.

Book your session through the link in my bio or send me a DM with any questions!

To the Class of 2026, senior year is now behind you, graduation has come and gone, and as you head into the summer before your next big adventure, I hope you take time to celebrate all you've accomplished.

Thank you for trusting me to capture such a special season of your lives. From summer sunsets and wildflower fields to city streets and beach sessions, it has been an honor to tell your stories. Whether we were chasing golden hour, exploring new locations, or visiting places that hold special memories, every session was unique because each of you brought your own personality and story.

I loved getting to know you and watching your excitement for all that's ahead.

Congratulations, Class of 2026! Go confidently in the direction of your dreams—I can't wait to see where life takes you next. ✨

Aubrie | RHS Class of 2026

I met Aubrie at NCMA for her senior portraits and we had such a fun evening together. We explored the park, chased the light, and brought her inspiration photos to life. From the open fields to the golden sunshine, everything came together beautifully.

Next stop: UNCW 🌊💙

Congratulations, Aubrie! Wishing you the very best as you head to graduation and prepare for this exciting next chapter.
