Welcome to 2023 and the “what’s new this year” article. I hope this note finds you well!
Last year’s sessions were limited due to our personally busy year. Even so, they were still a big part of my 2022 and I enjoyed seeing you all! Most of my clients in the past several years have been high school seniors so I must take just a moment to say how excited I am for all of you as the spring of your senior year is about to take off. And for my focus families, it was such a blessing to get to see you as well. You are appreciated!
So, what’s new at
FOCUS in 2023?
Class of 2025 - High School Seniors
I look forward to resuming High School Senior session scheduling in February, 2024 for the Class of 2025!
Here is what your Class of 2025 senior can expect during their senior portraits session. At Focus, High School Seniors Sessions are a highly personalized and fun experience for this milestone time in your young adult’s life. 20 beautifully edited, high resolution digital images are included with every High School Senior Base Package with options to upgrade your package anytime prior to your senior’s graduation date. Yearbook submission is included (if that’s something your school does) and you will receive a 4×6 spiral bound proof book with all of your fully edited final gallery images.
Find out more about High School Seniors Photography with Susan here. I’d love to put you in touch with prior high school senior clients if you would like to hear about their senior portraits experience with me at Focus Photography by Susan. I look forward to meeting you!
Class of 2024 High School Seniors
As last year’s busy personal year came to a close, it became clear that 2023 will be similar, if not more involved. It is with quite a bit of sadness that I’ve made the decision to not take on high school seniors this year (Class of 2024).
I love, LOVE my senior clients! I was so looking forward to seeing the soon-to-be seniors who are just waiting for me to open the books as well as the seniors I had yet to meet. It’s possible that the summer will be less busy than I anticipate. However, senior clients are unique in that it’s important to secure your photographer in early spring if possible. The uncertainty of my schedule this year leaves me less than 100% certain that I can plan as far out as senior clients require and deserve.
Being unwilling to leave anyone in a lurch, I am communicating the decision now so that the Class of 2024 has plenty of time to find a photographer who can more definitively schedule for the summer.

Not your year for the big family portraits session, but want nice options for a holiday card or just to capture your people (or fur babies) with a short and sweet session? I’ve got you covered. You’ll receive a set of 4×6 proofs and 10 high resolution digital files for $200 (plus tax, of course). Additional prints and an extensive product menu are available ala carte as well as a greeting card builder right from your gallery.
We’ll chat before your session date so that I know what you are hoping to come away with and then spend up to 20 minutes photographing on your session day. Mini Days are set in a Woodbury or Cottage Grove location.
I can’t wait to see/meet you!!
Client Files Sunsetting Soon
Make Sure You Have What You Need!
One of the Focus advantages is that (barring a catastrophic data loss), I like to keep clients’ files available for quite some time. However, the time has come again for me to clear some memory. Although I may retain some files for marketing purposes…
