Downers Grove Senior Photographer | Natural, Stylish Portraits for Class of 2026
I help seniors break away from the expected... with photo sessions that excite and impress
Senior year is a milestone you’ve been building toward for eighteen years. It’s exciting, emotional, and full of change. Between college applications, sports, final concerts, and graduation prep, it feels like everything is happening at once.
And somewhere in the whirlwind, you suddenly realize:
This is the last time they’ll live under your roof full time....The last of THIS version of life together.
Senior portraits aren’t just about marking a moment—
they’re about preserving who they are before everything shifts into what's next.
Designed to honor your senior authentically while making the entire process easy, guided, and unforgettable...you can rest assured that there will be...
No stiff smiles.
No cookie-cutter backdrops.
Just authentic portraits that look and feel like him or her.
Whether you want polished studio simplicity, modern urban vibes, or golden-hour outdoor photos (or a mix!), we’ll customize a session that fits your style and personality—while making the process both easy and memorable.
Class of '26...It's Your Turn!

How pricing works
At our boutique studio, we specialize in high-end, custom Senior Photos that celebrate this exciting milestone in a way that’s uniquely you!
Unlike many photographers, we don’t just deliver digital images—we help you bring your memories to life in print. From stunning wall art to beautifully designed albums, we guide you in choosing the very best from your session and creating keepsakes you’ll cherish for years to come.
Your session fee gets you started, including a credit to apply toward your favorite final images at your order appointment. Most of our seniors love their photos so much that they choose a custom album, while parents often select prints for a gorgeous wall display.
We make everything seamless and stress-free, starting with a phone call to go over pricing, details, and what to expect. Let’s make your Senior Photos an unforgettable experience! Packages start at $790.
"...such a wonderful experience from start to finish! Jack had so much fun on the photo shoot We are beyond thrilled with the outcome! We also appreciate how easy you made the selection process. That is something that can be so grueling and complicated, and you made it very simple and enjoyable. We are really excited for the photo book and 2 framed prints!" -Kristin K
"I've hired numerous professional photographers over the years, and I can honestly say that Deb Wesley is by far the best I've ever worked with. What makes working with Deb so great goes beyond the photos (which were outstanding), her personal touch and level of service before, during, and after the session goes beyond any other photographer that I've ever experienced.
