Charleston High School Senior Photography

Timeless, confident senior portraits by Krissy Millar

Serving Charleston, South Carolina mount pleasant, and the Lowcountry

Make it good. Make it beautiful.

High school senior portraits are about more than a milestone — they’re about who you are in this moment. Krissy Millar is a Charleston, South Carolina high school senior photographer creating timeless, confident senior portraits designed to feel natural, personal, and meaningful.

Every senior session is customized around location, personality, and comfort, with thoughtful guidance throughout the process. Whether your style leans classic or a little more unique, the goal is the same: photographs that feel like you — now and for years to come.

Your senior session should feel enjoyable and unhurried, with guidance that helps you feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera. I create a personalized photography plan for every senior — from location to pacing — so the experience feels thoughtful, comfortable, and true to who you are.

These aren’t the school photos you’ve had taken year after year. These are the portraits your family will return to — images that reflect not just how you look, but who you are in this season, and the person you’re becoming.

The Senior Experience

Charleston offers an incredible range of settings, and choosing the right ones is part of what makes a senior session feel truly personal. From historic streets and quiet waterfronts to soft coastal landscapes, I help you select locations that fit your style and tell your story. Many of the families I work with travel from other states specifically to have their senior portraits here, and I love helping them experience the beauty of this area in a meaningful way.

For seniors who want more variety, we can create a thoughtfully planned, adventure-style session — moving between multiple locations and making the most of Charleston’s light, scenery, and sense of place. The result is a collection of portraits that feel intentional, unhurried, and uniquely yours.

Locations 
That Matter

My approach to senior photography is rooted in simplicity, intention, and connection. I focus on timeless imagery — thoughtful composition, flattering light, and natural expression — so your portraits feel just as meaningful years from now as they do today.

You don’t need to know how to pose or perform for the camera. I guide you in a way that feels comfortable and natural, allowing your personality to come through without forcing moments or trends.

The result is a collection of senior portraits that feel confident, personal, and true to who you are — not overly styled, not fleeting, and never generic.

THOUGHTS ON OUR EXPERIENCE

“The memories are priceless! That day was so fun and incredible.”

—Mia's Mom, Charleston, SC

Every time I look at Mia’s senior photos I get emotional. The memories are priceless! That day was so fun and incredible, you knew exactly where to go and what to do for the photos we were wanting. You go above and beyond with your work and it shows! I'm forever grateful."

"Thank you Krissy for making the experience so enjoyable!"

— Jen, Mom of Senior

"I was beyond thrilled with my daughter's senior portraits. Krissy made the session super fun for my teen who doesn't enjoy getting her picture taken. The photos captured my daughter's authentic expressions while highlighting her unique personality. Thank you, Krissy, for making the experience so enjoyable!"

At the heart of the Krissy Millar experience is a deep desire to help high school seniors see just how beautiful they truly are. Yes, there are hair and makeup options, thoughtful posing, and beautiful locations — all designed so you love your photographs. But what matters most to me goes deeper than that.
I believe in your intrinsic value and that true beauty begins in the heart. I approach every session choosing to see the best in you. When you laugh, relax, and realize that I — and my camera — are fully on your side, that’s when the most meaningful photographs are created.
