Why It Matters

You only graduate
once.

Four years of hard work, late nights, and everything you've built at QU comes down to one moment. The phone photos from the ceremony are great — but they're not the photos that end up on the wall, in the frame, or in the envelope your parents send to every relative they know.

A dedicated graduation session gives you the time and space to actually capture this milestone properly — at the campus you called home, in the locations that meant something to you, with light that does justice to the moment.

And there's one thing that makes this session different: your photographer graduated from Quinnipiac too. MS '25, BFA '24. I know this campus, I know the light, and I know exactly which spots make for the best photos — because I've lived all of it.

Where We Shoot

The QU spots worth
remembering.

As a QU alum, I know exactly which campus locations photograph beautifully and which ones carry the most meaning. Here are the go-to spots — and I'm always open to shooting wherever felt most like home to you.

🏛️
The Quad

The heart of QU's Hamden campus. Classic architecture, great late-afternoon light, and the most recognizable backdrop for Class of 2026 photos.

🌳
Campus Walkways & Greens

Tree-lined paths and open green spaces that photograph beautifully — especially during spring commencement when everything is at its best.

🏫
Your School Building

In front of Communications, Business, Health Sciences, Law — photos that tie directly to what you worked for and where you spent your time.

📚
Arnold Bernhard Library

One of QU's most distinctive architectural landmarks — great for formal cap and gown portraits with real campus character.

🎓
Commencement Area

Near the ceremony site before or after — capturing the full experience of graduation day in one session.

📍
Your Spot

The bench you always sat at, the building where everything clicked, the view you'll actually miss. Tell me and we'll make it happen.

Questions

Things QU grads
usually ask.

When should I book my session?

As early as possible — especially for sessions around commencement weekend. Golden hour slots in late April and May fill up fast. If you have a specific date in mind, don't wait. A $50 deposit locks in your spot.

Can my parents be in some of the photos?

Absolutely — this is one of the most meaningful parts of the session for a lot of families. Mention it in the booking form and we'll carve out time for family shots alongside your individual portraits. There's no additional charge for including family members in a session you've already booked.

How will I receive my photos?

Within 5–10 days of your session you'll receive a link to your private Pixieset gallery — a clean, professional online gallery with all your fully edited photos in full resolution. Download everything directly, share the link with family, and order prints straight from the gallery if you'd like.

You graduated from QU — does that actually matter?

It makes a real difference. I know which spots on campus have the best light at which times of day, which angles make the architecture look its best, and which locations will actually mean something to you years from now. I'm not showing up with a map — I spent years on this campus.
