Featured Sessions
The Senior Picture experience you really want
I believe that every high school senior deserves an experience for their senior portrait session that makes them feel like a rock star and confident to be authentically themselves. Because senior portraits are SO much more than just a social media post. That's why my team and I strive to create Branson and Springfield MO's most fun and stylish senior pictures for our clients. My motto is BE YOU, NOT THEM, so you end up with photographs that truly tell YOUR story.
Getting awesome images is a given, but I also believe everyone deserves a full service experience as well. So I'm with you from our initial consult, to wardrobe styling, to final printed artwork, and everything in between.
You want more than flowers and fields, something that's not like everyone else
1.
You Like True to color editing and want to look like yourself
2.
You Want a Fun & Laid Back, Stress free experience
3.
You might be a little shy in front of the camera, so could use a hype person
4.
You and/or your parents really like printed artwork, but don't have the time or knowledge to do it yourself.

1. Make a Connection
I love to get to know our clients a little before the session. After years in the business, I know the more comfortable our clients are around me and my team, the better the images are. Nothing is more awkward than trying to get a genuine laugh out of someone who feels self conscious because they just don't know you. So for the initial consultation, I like to meet over coffee or something in person, or at the very least a zoom or FaceTime call to make sure we vibe well and get a better idea what you envision for your session.
2. Before the Session
Once you've set your date and time, I then send our client guide full of all sorts of tips to make sure you have the absolute best experience we can. I have a client questionnaire for you to fill out to get to know you better as well. We'll discuss location options, I will help you style outfits, and guide you on any add on services like professional hair + makeup if you'd like to go the extra step in looking flawless.
3. During the Session
Seriously just have fun! We've done all the prep, and gotten to know each other, so all that's left day of is to relax and just have a great time. Our biggest goal is to make your session as easy and stress free as possible while getting you images you'll love. Our style is more lifestyle, so we will guide and direct you on how to pose, or interact but we aim to make everything as natural as can be so your true personality shines through! The session you chose, and the time allowed for it will determine your final image count. Typically, you will receive 25-30 images per hour of shooting to choose from in your ordering gallery.
4. After the Session
About 1-2 weeks after the session, your images will be ready for viewing and we will schedule an ordering appointment either over Zoom/Facetime, or in person. I will gladly help you cull your favorites and choose the best images for your product choices. All images will be lightly edited in my artistic style for proofing, and a full beauty edit (fine art retouching) will be added to any image you order. Once final products are ordered and design approved, please allow 1-2 weeks for delivery.
My favorite part of being in the VIP Program was the growth that came from it. I've grown to not only just accept myself, but to love myself and be confident in myself. I'm really thankful for this experience helping me do that.

What a great experience we’ve had with Dynae! We’ve had three sessions and each one has been perfect from beginning to end. So professional, creative, flexible, and easy! From surf photos to downtown at sunset, she knows her stuff!

- Sidney, senior Client
We have LOVED working with Dynae!! She is very laid-back... she let my daughter make decisions on locations & looks, yet she offered her expertise & opinion when asked. She treated my daughter with respect, and made the photo shoots FUN... PLUS the finished images/products look AMAZING!

Offering Heirloom Quality Artwork To Showcase your Portraits
Because your Photos Are so much more than just a social media post
I believe my clients deserve the very best, so that means offering you a full service experience that includes printed artwork at the end. I help you custom design your products, so you don't have to worry about any of it. While of course you can purchase digital images as well, I'm a big fan of printed artwork because I believe it's truly the way photography is meant to be seen. Printing, is what elevates it from just another snapshot you've taken with your phone, to true artwork for your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many images will I get in my gallery?
Q:
It depends on the type of session you choose. You will typically end up with 35+ images on average for each hour of shooting time in your gallery to choose from. Then based on the collection you purchased, determines the number of your favorites to download or have artwork designed.
A:
Q:
Do you Sell Digital images?
A:
Of course! Even though we specialize in fine art printed products, you always have the option to purchase digital images by themselves as well.
Q:
How long will it take to get my images?
A:
Typically, images will be ready 1 week after your session takes place, and we will schedule an ordering appointment with you at this time. Once you've made a purchase order and paid in full, all ordered images are hand edited & retouched before final delivery so it usually takes 1-2 weeks for your retouched images and any custom designed proofs to be ready for download. Once printed designs are approved, please allow another week for final artwork delivery.
What time of day should I schedule my session?
Q:
Unlike a lot of photographers, I don't dictate the time of day that works best for your session. I love shooting in all types of light, even full sun. So I think this really depends on the mood you're wanting to convey from your session, as well as if there are any time constraints based on the locations we choose. Otherwise, we just go for the light that is going to go best for your vision!
A:
Most of our clients agree that 48 hours is plenty of time to pick favorites and make a purchasing decision, especially with an ordering appointment where I can help go through culling images and giving my advice on which images will look best in certain products. But if you do need to extend your gallery to make final choices after 1 week, you may do so for an additional charge of $25 per day.
