Editorial Senior Photography
I take senior photos that feel personal, unique and elevated, like photos for your very own modeling portfolio, but for you to remember this season of your life.
If you're looking for a unique and modern experience, you are in the right place.
Not feeling like an outside shoot?
me too, that's why my sessions are all in studio
If you're a senior who's looking for something fresh, then I invite you to scroll and learn more. What I do in my Lower Queen Anne, Seattle studio is a modern take on senior photos. I combine your individuality and capture it with an editorial photography approach. Why? Because I'm not the kind of gal that feels comfortable in a field getting bug bites, so I took the game inside. If this resonates, then you're in the right place.

SMG Models Seattle signed my daughter Genesis years ago. A week ago in Seattle, Genesis did a senior session with White Moth Studio and I am stoked at how awesome the shoot turned out. She was a pleasure to work with and we love the photos. This is our favorite image!

My Painless Process
no fuss, no stress — just a fun & easy experience
Hi, I'm Dasha and I'm an open book. :) From the moment we first talk I show up with a calm and confident presence that tells you I will take care of your every need with compassion and kindness because I truly care about the experience you have in my studio.
I've been photographing, guiding, posing, directing & styling people for 17 years and with that comes a great deal of knowledge on how to make you feel and look like you in your photos. When I show up to your session, I will have a plan but I will also have an open mind, ready to take your direction or help navigate you to your best angle, stance and expression.
My promise to you: You won't need to strike those stuffy poses or pretend to be happy. All those smiles and laughter, will come naturally because we're basically,
just hanging out.
The images that come from your senior session will be completely you, they will resonate with how you actually see yourself. Because how I will photograph you VS the other guys, will ultimately come from the heart and from a safe and comfortable space where you can feel yourself without compromise.
Your senior year only comes once, this version of you is only here today. Make sure you capture it before it's gone.
STEP 01
Book
Securing your session is easy, simply go to my Booking Calendar and select your preferred date and time for your chosen session and place your non-refundable $250 booking deposit to secure your date. Your booking will also include your contract, model release form and a quick questionnaire so we can get to know each other!
STEP 02
Plan
As an added bonus to working with a fashion photographer, you will be able to take advantage of an optional virtual planning session to talk about your creative direction for the session. I will create a mood board for you to plan your outfits, movement & posing ideas and makeup and hair styling!
STEP 03
Session Time
We will meet at the studio and dive into our session by first reviewing your outfits, looking through our creative direction moodboard and and grounding to ensure everyone is feeling relaxed during the session. I will guide you with prompts to get the most natural expressions, body language and interactions. Our time together will be full of joy, laughter and fashion-forward attitude! No one session is the same so be prepared to just be yourself!
STEP 04
Delivering photos
I will go through our session and curate a fully custom gallery featuring your best images. Within 2 weeks of your session I will send you the gallery and once you’ve reviewed your images, we can schedule your Wall Art order session. Together we will create your custom heirloom keepsakes so you can see your images come to life on your walls and not just live on your hard drive.
STEP 05
Heirloom Order
& Wrap Up
1 week after you have really taken in your image gallery, we will meet up over zoom for your Wrap Up call to talk about your experience, collect feedback and perhaps even plan for your next session, because we all know kiddos grow fast!
If you placed a custom Heirloom Print order, it will arrive directly to your door within a couple weeks and will be fully matted and framed — ready for placement in your home!

Hi, my name is Dasha!
Hello, my name is Dasha Denger. I am the Producer, Owner and Photographer of White Moth Studio right here in Seattle, WA.
I got my start in photography back in 2009 when I launched my boutique family & senior portrait photography business, which over the years evolved into fashion and editorial work. I spent much of my career in the Midwest (Chicago baby!) creating editorial stories until recently moving to Seattle in 2023 and starting White Moth Studio.
Launching White Moth made me discover my new path: editorial portraits for families, kids and mama's to be, catering to the modern, style-conscious Seattle families who want photographs that feel real, intimate, and intentional.
With my background in fashion and editorial photography, I bring the same creative direction, wardrobe styling, and intentional storytelling to family photography that I did when I was photographing fashion magazine editorials. Because I believe it's necessary to capture real families in a way that is honest, deeply personal, and artfully composed. I hope to create timeless keepsakes that reflect your family’s unique story.
I believe your family is your story. So why not have photos that tell it?
Let's connect and see what we can create together!
Don't want to be confined?
this is your opportunity to be yourself
My studio is your oyster — Let's create images that capture the real you, no fluff, no compromise. I take time to connect with you, from your personalized questionnaire to your session day, I ask you real questions about what you want to see and how you want to show up, so you're never surprised or confused about any part of the process. Let me take photos of you that are 100% authentically you, showing off exactly who you are right now in this gorgeous season of your life. Senior photos are meant to be celebrated.
Client Love —
Toni, Mom of Amaiya
Thank you so much for such a fun session!! Her pictures came out so beautiful!! You did a great job capturing her!! We are so lucky to have been able to work with you!!

What makes your Print Products "editorial"
