Best Friend Senior Portrait Session at Discovery Park | Seattle Prep

August 4, 2026

This best friend senior portrait session at Discovery Park for Seattle Prep seniors was such a great time. I absolutely love photoshoots with friends! Why do I love them so much?

  • Built in support and hype team
  • Laughs and smiles come easier and look natural
  • An extra set of eyes to check clothing, makeup, and hair
  • You get to stand back and enjoy a break from the spotlight when you switch spots
  • An amazing opportunity to document your friendship. You will have photos to treasure forever!
  • It’s just a ton of fun!!!

For this session at Discovery Park, we started at the top of the park to work our way down to the water and lighthouse. The upper area of the park has amazing open fields, tall grass, trees, wildflowers (if you book early summer), the bluff, and more. The lower area of the park shows off an amazing beach with sand, rock, driftwood, and lighthouse. Both areas are amazing to visit if you book a session with enough time.

I’m so glad we had a gorgeous sunny late September evening for these friends. Their gallery looks like it was the middle of summer! And it was wonderful that they both brought their moms along, who are also friends. The moms had fun hanging out while we enjoyed a fantastic photoshoot. And, at the end, each mom posed for a cute pic with her daughter.

Thanks for reading!

XO, Janelle
