What is it that makes your senior special in your eyes?

Their smile, contagious laughter, kindness, faith, talent, ability to brighten up any room?

Hi.  I'm Jonathan Messenger.

I'm a dad myself with 2 children I am very proud of and I show them off and brag about them every chance I get.

My oldest is Kayla.  She is 27 years old and is so sweet and a very gifted actor and director.  She is currently a teacher at FCHS and helps with every theatre production and she has also been the stage manager for the Miss Virginia pageant for the last 4 years. 

My youngest is Madison having just turned 24.  He is so very smart and caring.  He can do just about anything.  He started out as an electrician at Jamison Electric where he was running his own jobs and is now a fireman for the City of Roanoke.  One of his goals is to design and build his own house one day.

It's been a minute since my two were high school seniors and I miss it.  I was fortunate to take their senior pictures and I still have them on my phone and still show them to everyone. 

I know you feel the same way about your senior.  You want to show them off to the world and at the same time hold on to them forever.  As parents we are both excited for them and sad for us because we realize that they aren't little any more and they will soon be leaving whether it be for college or a job or possibly both.

Now is the time to make sure you capture this milestone before it's too late.  You won't regret it (I don't) and years from now you can show them off to your friends and family as well.

Discover What My Clients Love

"Jonathan is an excellent photographer. He did our granddaughter's senior portraits.

He was patient, and kind. He went to several different locations and places with us. He also spent several hours with her doing her pictures. You could tell he really cares about the client. He didn't rush her or us and that is one of the things I liked about him.

He is an awesome photographer and now we have beautiful pictures that she and the whole family can treasure forever! I highly recommend Jonathan to all and everyone for capturing life's special moments!"

You want to recognize, honor and celebrate your senior's last year of high school.

And celebrate those special things that make your senior unique and make you proud.

What if you had art in your home that speaks to your senior?

What if the art in your home said:

Spending time with you makes me happy.

I'm proud of you for who you are.

You make life so much fun.

You bring a lot of joy to our family.

I am happy to share my life with you.

I love you no matter what.

 How will you celebrate your senior's last year?

I'm Ready for a Call

WHAT TO EXPECT

Step 1

COMPLETE THE DISCOVERY SESSION FORM

It's simple, click on any button and fill out your details to secure your reservation or call Jonathan at 540-793-0798.

I'm excited to be on this senior journey with you!

Step 2

DISCOVERY CALL

I will call you to learn about your senior's plans for the future, likes, dislikes, personality and style.  I also want to know how you plan to celebrate their senior year and what you love most about your senior.  By talking about all of these topics we can plan your portrait experience to reflect your senior's best features.

Step 3

CREATE

Expect your portrait session to be an exciting day full of laughs (I have a lot of dad jokes stored in my brain), wonderful pictures, happy moments and maybe even some sad moments as we start to realize that graduation day is getting closer by the minute.  This session will reflect how you want to remember your senior years from now.

Step 4

ENJOY FOR YEARS TO COME

Proudly display your portraits in your home as you are reminded of the love and joy or your senior's story portrayed through artistically created wall art.

Get In Touch!
