About Us

You are gorgeous. Seriously, you might not realize it yet, but you are absolutely beautiful. We're going to have a great time, laugh, smile and celebrate your true beauty while creating some seriously beautiful images!

And to my senior parents, I think I have the best job ever. Not only do I get to laugh and create art every day, there is nothing better than giving my clients a little extra spark of self-confidence. It is so exciting to see a teenage girl love portraits of herself. This is your daughter's time to shine! I can't wait to give you an incredible portrait experience and provide your family with beautiful memories and art to enjoy for years to come.

Savanna, Class of 2020

My experience with Heidi was so much more than just a typical senior photoshoot - she made me feel so comfortable and beautiful!

light chaser • Camera Artist • Creative

Hello! I’m Heidi and I am so excited to celebrate your senior year with you! Your moment is here, you’re a senior … and this is your year! I love seniors! So much so that I specialize only in senior portraiture. My favorite part with working with teens is the moment I first show them their image on the back of the camera, and they gasp and are wowed by how beautiful they look or how amazing they look for the guys! I absolutely love seeing how surprised they are by their own beauty, and that is my ultimate goal - I have a passion for making young women and men feel beautiful and confident and amazing.

Whether it's photography, interior design or crafting, I have always been a creative soul. I enjoy capturing everyday moments of my children, people on the street, landscapes, and life around me. I love fresh faces as well as capturing each client's unique personality and preserving it as photographic art.

I have had the amazing opportunity to work with high school seniors and teens since 2014 and absolutely love working with such amazing youth! I feel it a privilege to able to mentor and encouragement young men and women during this exciting milestone in their lives and am passionate about building up young girls and guys and helping them with their self-esteem.

Photography and creativity is my calling.

Heidi LaPerle

Wife • Mom • Dog Lover

When I’m not working with seniors, you can find me hanging out with my family. I am a mother to two amazing kids, and one beautiful daughter-in-law. I am married to an amazing man, my best friend in the whole world, for whose support makes all this possible. As a family we love hiking and exploring the outdoors in the beautiful PNW and the ocean. As a mom of a college student, and a daughter who is an upcoming senior, I know the roller coaster of emotions you’re on. Because I’ve been in your shoes too, I understand exactly how this moment feels and just how important it is.

My Why

My Family

Dreamer • Explorer • Shopping Addict

I love Jesus Christ and my Father in Heaven and know that He has blessed my life with so many things that if I don’t mention Him, I’d be selfish and ungrateful.

I love puppy snuggles with our dog Ellie. I also love tea in the morning, (Calli mint is my personal fave), the sound of ocean waves, laughing out loud, exploring, essential oils - which I couldn't do without (lavender is my best friend), pretty things, shabby chic and vintage things, the smell and sound of rain, peonies, lunch with friends at my favorite Mexican restaurant, and my job (both mom and photographer - they both are blessings!)

When I’m not taking pictures, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, walking the beach, exploring the best home décor boutiques in town, or designing my dream home on Pinterest as if I was Joanna Gaines. I’m also a huge fan of cozy cardigans, fresh flowers for any and every occasion, and Dove chocolate!
