See Yourself In Your Best Light!
For 15 years, Focus Photography has empowered HS Seniors with images that show all their personality, accomplishments, grace, and depth.
Our Story
Focus Photography is two photographers, Will (I’m typing this) and Lucia, who is also my wife.
Will photographs the senior sessions, and Lucia handles all your scheduling, ordering, and yearbook submissions.
My mom (this is Will) thinks it’s ironic that she doesn’t have a single senior picture of me, and yet my favorite subject to photograph is high school seniors.
It’s not ironic – it’s cause and effect.
Here’s the truth: I looked like an idiot in my senior pictures, and I threw them out. I didn’t like how I was photographed, the lack of direction I got, my skin was a wreck, and I was NEVER going to let anyone see those images.
I won’t let that happen to you.
I guarantee that when you work with me for your senior portraits, I’m going to show you images that will make you feel great about yourself, and that you’ll be proud to post. If we fail (we won’t), we’ll refund your money, or reshoot your session – up to you.

Our Favorite Senior Pictures
FROM DIFFERENT LOCATIONS
What Our Clients Have Said:
Focus understood just what I wanted for my senior year. I got natural pictures outdoors at Fort Williams and the beach, and flashier fashion pictures in the studio!
I felt like a model or an actress, and you will too!
My photoshoot was fun (and a little glamorous), the premiere was exciting, and I love my images.
I highly recommend Focus Photography. I get so many compliments on my pictures, and you will too.
My photo session was amazing! Will was always coming up with ideas that really worked for me, and he had a good sense of my style. There was nothing traditional about my session, and that is what i loved about it!
I think Focus is the the #1 choice for seniors!
When I looked at the Focus website, I was really impressed by the combination of creativity and professional quality of your images. At first, I thought the prices would be out of reach, but then I realized that the prices for other photographers were about the same, if not higher, and plus, Focus’s images were better. I’m so glad I chose Focus!
I worked on the yearbook and several students from a different photography studio had the exact same pose, on the exact same staircase, in the same outfit! That would never happen at Focus, because each of the pictures is unique.
We really like the prints you made us. We bought the 4 box wall pieces for each of the boys, and they are so unique for each boy. They really demonstrate the person they are…love the one of Casey with the pic over pic view..so different – no one else has anything like it/them.
I like the creativity Will puts into his work to make sure each shot is different, and that the client’s personality is brought out in the image. My session was fun, relaxed, and personal, not to mention glamorous.
I love my images. The quality of the portraits captured is truly very impressive. The techniques Will used to make me stand out from the background, and how everything flows so nicely together really gave my images the great quality that they have.
I LOVE THE WAY I LOOK IN MY PICTURES!
To upcoming seniors, I just have to say that you should try to do the most with Focus as you can! Go to the beach, the old port, and the studio and just have a blast with it!
Thank you very much for everything. I LOVE my pictures, loved working with Will, and I do recommend Focus Photography to other seniors.
You guys really focused on me and my experience. I felt comfortable, and I really enjoyed getting to know you. The quality of the pictures came out great, too!
I can’t think of one thing that could have made our session with Focus any better. It was everything we expected and more!
What a pleasure Focus Photography is. Thank you so much!
I love my pictures because of the variety of angles, backdrops, and locations that were featured!
I thought the pricing was reasonable. I appreciated having the sitting fee separate – It made the whole experience less pressured.
The finished portraits were fantastic. We’ve gotten rave reviews from aunts, uncles, and grandparents.
I really liked the brightness and cleanness of the pictures – you guys did a great job.
I can be a little shy and insecure, and when I look at my senior pictures, I feel a little more confident!
In my pictures, I look gorgeous! I was very happy with the variety I had to choose from. I had silly pictures, serious pictures, and pictures showing me enjoying the things I love. My images have more personality than my friends’ do!
The quality of the finished prints is fantastic. My eyes are brown, and somehow they still shine and became a focal point in many of my pictures.
I’ve never felt more beautiful or relaxed. My images are amazing, and the experience was unforgettable!
There’s no other photographer for seniors like Will at Focus Photography.
The photoshoot flew by – I wish I could have had three sessions on three different days so I could have kept feeling so beautiful.
I want to thank you for making it easy for me. I don’t like being photographed, I didn’t want a headshot, and I didn’t want to look at pictures of myself.
But I love the posters we did with all my guitars, and I’m really glad I came.
I loved how Focus made my shoot all about me.”
