BEFORE WE CHAT...
YOUR KHP
EXPERIENCE
Senior year isn't just another milestone—it's the last season before everything changes. My goal is to help your family slow down, celebrate who your senior is today, and create something you'll treasure long after graduation.
I've put together this page to answer many of the questions families have before we chat. Then, we'll schedule a quick planning call to answer the questions that are unique to your senior and begin creating an experience designed just for them.
we believe
you deserve more than just photos —
you deserve an experience that makes you feel seen, celebrated, and completely confident.
This isn’t just about taking pretty pictures. It’s about freezing a moment that’s filled with meaning, growth, and everything you’ve worked so hard for. It’s about showing up as your most confident, authentic self—and capturing it in a way that feels 100% you.
We’re here to celebrate all that you are, and everything you’re becoming.
This is your once-in-a-lifetime. Let’s make it revolutionary.

KELLY
mom, photographer, coffee obsessed, and beach lover
Hi, I’m Kelly — and I believe photography should feel like something.
I’m a senior and branding photographer based in North Florida, and I’m here to do more than just take pretty pictures. I’m here to celebrate who you are in this once-in-a-lifetime moment — with confidence, heart, and a little bit of sparkle.
For my seniors, this is about showing up fully, feeling amazing, and seeing yourself in a whole new light. For my moms, this is about pausing time — seeing your baby right on the edge of everything, and holding onto it forever.
I pour everything into crafting sessions that are styled, guided, and totally unforgettable. From outfits to poses, laughter to tears — I’m with you every step of the way. Because this season matters. And you deserve a photo experience that feels just as powerful as the moment itself.
This isn’t just photography. It’s transformation. It’s legacy.
And I’m so honored to help you capture it.
xo,
Kelly
WHAT makes
us DIFFERENT
FROM the rest
At KHP, we have a unique approach to photographing our clients. It’s a process we’ve been crafting for the past 20+ years. Here are a few ways we are different from the rest. There’s a reason our clients keep coming back to us time and time again!
help every step of the way
Senior year is full of decisions—photos shouldn’t be one more stressor. From styling to location and session prep to artwork, we guide you every step of the way. No guesswork for parents, no pressure for seniors—just a calm, clear, and (yes) fun experience. I walk you through every step so you can feel confident and prepared long before your session day.
Unmatched Variety &
Day-to-Night Photography
Your senior isn’t one-dimensional—so why should their photos be? Our sessions cover multiple locations, and lighting capturing everything from relaxed moments to golden-hour drama, all in one fun, effortless day. You'll receive a gallery filled with variety—from bright and timeless portraits to bold, editorial-inspired images that feel uniquely you.
Most seniors don't arrive feeling completely comfortable in front of the camera—and they don't have to. Through natural direction and a relaxed approach, I help seniors move past the awkwardness, allowing their confidence and personality to shine through in every image.
confidence building experience
Tailored portrait design
These photos mark a major milestone—so they deserve more than a forgotten gallery. We create lasting artwork: albums, prints, and portraits that become part of your family’s legacy. Because long after graduation, these images become some of the most meaningful reminders of this season.
you get to be YOU
Because senior photos are about more than how your senior looks—they're about who they are. I take the time to get to know each senior so their session reflects their personality, interests, and style. With nearly 20 years of experience working with teens, I know how to help even the most nervous senior feel comfortable, confident, and completely themselves. The result is a gallery that feels authentic, personal, and uniquely theirs.

WORDS
I'm not going to lie, I was incredibly nervous for my senior photos.
From start to finish, Kelleen Hite Photography made the entire process so comfortable and fun. Kelleen’s energy and professionalism put me at ease right away, and I genuinely enjoyed every moment of the shoot.

the PERFECT PORTRAIT EDIT to show the REAL YOU
Putting your trust in someone to capture your portraits can be feel a little overwhelming. When you book your session with us, you can rest easy —
KHP's images are bold, colorful and consistent. Your images will be a true reflection of your style, your personality, and who you really are.
By getting the correct colors, exposure, pose, and composition in-camera, we keep editing to a minimum, ensuring the final image stays true to who you are. We believe in keeping the image as true to life as possible. No crazy presets, just natural bold editing.
your senior photos should be just as bold, iconic, and one-of-a-kind as you are.
Because this moment? It only happens once.
And your images should celebrate every bit of it.
we believE
When do you schedule your senior sessions?
We schedule our senior sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas. Remember, your session will begin about three to five hours before the sun sets, so depending on the changes of daylight savings time, your session may begin at 1:00 pm during late fall and winter, and 2:30 in the spring and early fall, and 3:30 in the summer. Ordering sessions are scheduled for Mondays, in the studio from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m with evenings upon request.
How does it work with senior girls?
This experience is designed to help her feel confident, comfortable, and completely herself. We'll start by planning every detail together—from outfits and locations to the overall vision for her session. Professional hair and makeup are included, so she can relax and enjoy being pampered before stepping in front of the camera.
On session day, she doesn't need to worry about posing or knowing what to do. I'll guide her through the entire experience, helping her feel comfortable as her confidence grows and her personality shines through. The result is a fun, stress-free experience and images that celebrate who she is in this once-in-a-lifetime season.
How does it work with senior guys?
Let's be honest—most senior guys aren't excited about having their photos taken, and that's okay. My goal is to make the experience easy, relaxed, and surprisingly enjoyable.
We'll plan a session that reflects his personality and interests, whether that's sports, the outdoors, cars, music, or simply keeping things simple. On session day, he doesn't need to worry about posing or what to do. I'll guide him through the entire experience, helping him feel comfortable and confident without anything feeling forced.
The result is a stress-free experience, genuine images that feel like him, and photos both he and Mom will love for years to come.
How can I book my session with you?
The best thing you can do is BOOK YOUR SESSION EARLY! We book our sessions out a few to several months in advance and have to turn seniors away every year because we’re completely sold out by the Spring of your graduating year! We start with a chat to go over your dream session ideas, make sure we are a good fit, and to go over the session type. Then, once the retainer is paid, you are all set!
Can I do really natural makeup?
Heck yes you can! Our professional makeup artists can give you ANY look you want - from super glam to super natural {we call this the "laCroix" of makeup- just a kiss}, you get to control how you look in your senior pictures. We even work with you before the session day to find out exactly what your face and hair will look like for each and every look.
I have a special location in mind. Can we use it?
Maybe! It all depends on our other plans for your session. Mention it during your pre-session zoom consultation and we will do our best to make it happen! We like to find locations that are near each other so we don't waste the best light driving. I have been a photographer in the area for over 20 years, and have loads of varied and fabulous locations!
What type of payments do you accept?
We accept most major credit and debit cards, checks and cash. The session retainer is due immediately upon booking your scheduled session to hold your space. This ensures that your date is yours only and not open for any other clients. A $500 collection payment is due 15 days before your session and that is credited to whatever you end up ordering when we meet!
What about photos with my pet or things from my fave pastime?
Yes, yes, and yes. This is your session! If those things are important to you, we will include them in your session. Please be sure to mention them prior to your session so we can plan the perfect location!
My senior hates photos, what if they are awkward?
Believe it or not, that's one of the most common things parents tell me. Most seniors aren't professional models, and they don't need to be. I'll guide your senior through the entire session with natural direction and prompts that help them relax, feel comfortable, and have fun. Before long, most seniors forget they're even being photographed.
My senior photos were everything I wanted and more!
Kelly took all of my ideas and created my dream session that perfectly highlighted my interests and personality.
