Meet Clarissa

Hi, I'm Clarissa

Your flower seeking, sunset chasing, senior photographer

In the photography world, I'm mostly known for my glowing Montana skies, vibrant flower fields and soft natural retouching. I am a professional senior portrait photographer with 12+ years of experience. I love serving my clients by stopping time and preserving who they are in that moment with the enchanting Montana wilderness as their backdrop. I strive to infuse confidence, power, beauty and self worth into all of my awe-inspiring seniors.

In the personal world, I'm mostly known for being an active volunteer and foster with a local animal rescue. People refer to me as the crazy cat lady or Clarissa Queen of Cats (LOL). I love serving the community by nurturing injured or abandoned felines and getting them off the streets. I have fostered 80+ kitties since 2018, and my goal is to find my fosters the best forever homes possible.

Attention to details

Clarissa’s photos are beautiful, above others I’ve seen in the industry. My personal experience with my photoshoot was amazing. Seeing her behind the camera for my sister's senior photos was just as incredible. Beautiful locations & her attention to details make them even more special!
