We absolutely love my daughter’s senior pictures. John is just fantastic at what he does - super thoughtful and patient during the shoot. We had over 100 shots to choose from, and had such a tough time picking out our favorites. He offered both outdoor and studio poses, and we took advantage of both. Daughter had fun with a couple of outfit changes. Print ordering was quick and simple, and we received them within a week. Thank you!

We were very pleased with the senior pictures. There were so many great poses, it was hard to choose! Excellent quality, a cut above the usual. Reasonable prices and great turnaround time - we were happy with how quickly we got our order. Thank you for a very positive experience!

Bark River photography did a awesome job with my daughters senior pictures. We wanted pictures that were unique to her and different then other senior photos. There were lots of laughs which made for good pictures. B]very natural poses and never felt like it was a photo shoot. Property is beautiful and staff was very good at picking just the right pose.

We had such a great experience at Bark River Photography! John did an amazing job getting my daughter who doesn't like her picture taken to smile and enjoy herself! I didn't want to travel all around to get those perfect back drops and at Bark River they were all right outside!! Would highly recommend!!

Bark River Photography did a fabulous job with my 2020 Senior's photos. Even on a gloomy day, the outdoor venue was beautiful. We are so thrilled with the final product. Thank you John!

We had both of our daughters senior pictures done at Bark River Photography in 2017 & 2020, they turned out awesome! John is a fabulous photographer! He kept the girls relaxed & laughing, they thoroughly enjoyed working with him. He has a beautiful outdoor venue for pictures in the woods & river. It's so convenient having everything at one location. You get fabulous pictures at decent prices, we highly recommend Bark River Photography!

My son wasn't thrilled about having his senior pictures done but John made him feel at ease. He is professional yet fun. His prices were great and he really made us feel like we have choices. It was great to see the pictures right away and we felt comfortable we had what we needed in record time. He was willing to spend more time with us even, but we were already satisfied. Our shoot was stress free and in a beautiful environment- right outside his back door!

I got my senior pictures done by John and he is amazing. He made it fun and personal and made me feel comfortable. His backyard is beautiful with a river view with rocks and a "fairy tale" type woods.

I had my senior photos taken through Bark River Photography. They made my experience very fun, easy and enjoyable. John worked with the ideas that I had and made them better than I could have thought. The process was very easy for me and my mom and that is very much appreciated as that can be a hard process. Highly recommend!!!

John and Sarah did a great job with my daugher's senior pictures. They listened to what she wanted, made her personality shine through, and gave us some hard choices as we tried to narrow down many wonderful pictures to a handful of different poses. The setting is a bonus -- everything in one spot!

Bark River did a great job with our son's senior pictures, I should say our second son - we've used them twice now and both experiences were great - the pictures look awesome and the process was painless - even fun for boys that don't like their pictures taken :)

I loved coming here to get my senior pictures done! He made sure I was comfortable and helped get me posed for all my shots. He makes sure its a relaxed photoshoot with as many sets and outfits you want which was amazing! He let me see the photos and give instant feedback so the photos were exactly how I wanted them. I would recommend absolutely everyone to come to Bark River Photography for any sort of photoshoot!
