Senior Photos Of College Graduates At Dayton’s Most Popular University Near Downtown

August 17, 2023

There are not enough words to describe how much I love creating UD senior pictures on the University of Dayton campus. Within the span of two spring weekends this year, I photographed two groups of UD seniors both in groups and individually. I loved this so much because I love senior photos and I worked at UD from 2007-2021. I know and have photographed every inch of that campus. It is amazing to me to get to photograph college seniors at the height of the graduation year.

The first-weekend group I photographed was five best friends who were graduating from UD together. We started the session at the Chapel Of The Immaculate Conception on a fairly cool morning. Around the chapel are brick buildings, flowers, and blooming trees. I always like to incorporate St. Joe’s courtyard into my senior pictures when on campus. It is a nice, shady, wind-shielded area that is beautiful. Once done there, we photographed the iconic University of Dayton sign on Brown Street. We ended the senior photography session with UD senior photos in front of Tim’s, where the ladies popped champagne bottles. The owner even let us in to capture some cool shots on the dance floor.

The second-weekend group was 20 friends who all wanted various combinations of people. They were highly organized, making my job so easy. We tackled the large group first, mostly in front of the UD arch by Brown Street and Stewart Street. We then photographed the smaller groups and ended the day with individual photos and headshots.

Both groups were great, and I thank them for being so wonderful to work with.
