UNC Chapel Hill Spring 2026 Grad – Claira

There is something so special about celebrating a college graduation, especially on a beautiful campus like UNC Chapel Hill! As a local Chapel Hill graduation photographer, my goal is to always make your grad photos feel FUN! You deserve to celebrate all your accomplishments over the past four years! Claira added her own personal fun to her spring UNC senior photos by bringing her dog and we had so much fun!

We focused Claira’s spring senior photos at some of the most iconic spots around campus including the Old Well, the Wilson Library, and the UNC Bell Tower. The spring weather and blooming pink flower trees were perfect for our session and allowed Claira’s (and her dog’s!) personality to shine through. These pink trees bloom every year on campus around the first week of April and it’s my FAVORITE time for photos!

Claira spent her four years making the best memories and studying Exercise and Sport Science. After graduation, Claira is moving home and marrying her high school sweetheart and plans to later return to nursing school.  Here’s what Claira had to say about her experience at UNC Chapel Hill:

“My favorite part of UNC has been being a part of the community that is built on its shared love for Chapel Hill. Academic stress can take a toll, but knowing you are around people who not only want the same things as you, but want for you to succeed with them has been so encouraging.”

Congratulations on this amazing achievement, Claira! I loved meeting you and documenting this milestone for you and your sweet dog. Thank you for choosing me to capture these memories, and I wish you the very best in your next chapter! Go heels!
