Creative, Unique, and Lots of Fun

For over 15 years, Elders Ridge Photography by Emily Smith has captured cherished moments from all seasons of life. Starting in 2025, the focus is senior portraits…Class of 2026! My goal is to make sure we have the most fun capturing this exciting time in your life.

Panel 1

Seniors

Senior portraits are typically done the summer before senior year or the fall of your senior year…at least here in western Pennsylvania where the weather stops being fun mid-November. The first order of business when booking your session is learning about YOU. What makes you unique? How do you want to look in your senior pictures? Once I get to know you a bit, we’ll decide where to do the session. I like to pick locations that offer a lot of variety, so we can maximize our shooting time. The session will be FUN! I’ll direct you to make sure you pose and smile like the real you. After the session, you’ll receive a gallery full of images that are all yours. Download, share, and print anywhere you want!

Family

It’s fall in western PA, and it’s gorgeous! Right now I’m offering a lower-cost family session option to give you that extra push you need to stop procrastinating and start prioritizing family portraits. We’re all busy, but trust me: you won’t regret making the time to capture your growing family as they are today. See more family portraits by Elders Ridge Photography.
