Senior Portrait Sessions

Senior year is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a milestone worth celebrating. Your senior year deserves more than just photos. My senior sessions are designed to create a confident, editorial portrait experience.

As the Premier Senior Photographer in Puyallup, it’s my privilege to capture who they are at this moment.

"I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my shoot! My mom's smile was just as big as mine when revealing the final product, and Tara truly captured the best in me. I can't wait to share all of my photos and be able to show them off to my family."

Family Portrait Sessions

The best family photos capture more than faces — they capture the love, laughter, and connection you share. My sessions are relaxed and easygoing, designed to bring out those genuine moments that make your family who you are. Whether we’re photographing in Puyallup, Tacoma, or Gig Harbor, you’ll walk away with images that feel real and full of heart.

"I highly recommend Tara Giles Photography. She took my daughters senior photos and completed a family photo shoot for us. Her shots and quality are amazing, but even more important, she is kind, warm and makes you feel so comfortable. I love how you can tell she truly LOVES her job. She gets excited when she takes a great shot and is truly vested and present in every customer and shoot. If you’re like me and it has been a long time since you’ve had your family photos updated, or if you have an upcoming senior graduating, I highly recommend you contact Tara Giles Photography as soon as possible to get your appointment booked."

Tacoma Headshot and Brand Photographer

Every business has a story. I’ll help you capture images that show the heart and personality behind it.

Whether you need updated headshots, team photos, lifestyle content, or images that reflect what makes your brand unique, we’ll create photos that look authentic, polished, and full of personality — so you can show up online with confidence and purpose.

"We believe that having photos printed and displayed in your home is important."

Printed Products by Puyallup Photographer Tara Giles

Digitals and Prints:

Digital images matter—and they’re included with every collection.
But your photos deserve more than being stored on a device and forgotten. Digital files can get misplaced or become difficult to access down the road. Your images should be seen, held, and enjoyed.

That’s why every senior and family collection at Tara Giles Photography comes with professionally edited, high-resolution digitals and beautifully crafted printed products. From keepsake gift prints to albums and wall art, your portraits are delivered in formats you can share, display, and treasure for years.
