Quail Hollow Senior Pictures | Fall Senior Session at Quail Hollow Park

Quail Hollow Park, a beautiful Stark Park located in Louisville, Ohio, offers a stunning natural backdrop, and it was the perfect location for Eli’s senior pictures! Since Eli wanted a more outdoorsy vibe for his session, Quail Hollow made an ideal choice. It was actually my first time photographing there, and, needless to say, it did not disappoint.

Eli’s mom, Paula, and I were searching for a good middle point between us, and after a quick Google search, we found Quail Hollow. I’m so glad we did — it’s definitely a place I’ll be visiting again for future sessions!

Eli is a senior at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Louisville, and he’s actually my very first senior client from that school! Even more special, he came as a referral from a wedding I second-photographed this past summer. Referrals like that truly mean the world to me.

From the start, Eli was incredibly easy-going — almost too easy, I kept teasing him! He was so patient with all my questions and gave great feedback throughout his Quail Hollow senior pictures session. I always tell my seniors: if you see something you don’t love, let’s fix it right away — and Eli took me up on that! I love working together to create photos you’re 100% happy with.

One of my favorite moments was when I asked Eli for a loud, over-the-top fake laugh just to capture a genuine smile — and he had me laughing right along with him! Our conversations as we explored the park made the entire session even more memorable.

Downtown Hartville Adventure:

Finally, after wrapping up at Quail Hollow, we headed into downtown Hartville to capture a few more looks. Downtown Hartville is full of charming old buildings, and they made the perfect backdrop for some edgier shots — especially with Eli rocking his Game of Thrones T-shirt!

What I love most is how the combination of natural beauty at Quail Hollow and the historic charm of downtown Hartville gave Eli’s senior pictures such a great variety of styles and moods. It was the perfect way to end an awesome session!
