Chances are if you are reading this blog then it is getting close to graduation time so...CONGRATULATIONS!! Senior photos are an exciting and important activity. These photos will likely be seen and cherished by many. Senior photos are used in yearbooks, graduation announcements, given as gifts, and hung on your parents wall.... FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE! In order for the your session to be enjoyable, memorable and stress-free, I have written down tips that I believe will help you be prepared and confident.
The location sets the tone for your senior photos. Do you picture yourself in a glowing hayfield, a colorful flower garden, or a downtown scene with brick and metal? Once you know the vibe you want, we can choose the perfect spot.
I have plenty of favorite locations to suggest, but the best ones are often personal to you like your family’s land, a favorite hangout, or even a new place you’d love to explore. When the location is meaningful, your photos will feel even more special.
Downtown/ urban
Natural setting
When it comes to wardrobe, it’s important to choose outfits that fit the setting. I recommend bringing two: one dressier option and one more casual. Your casual look could be a favorite outfit, a college tee, or even your high school shirt.
Most importantly, wear what makes you feel your best. After booking, I’ll send you an additional list of tips to help you prepare.
Is there a hobby or talent you have that we can showcase? Senior Photos do not always have to be dressy headshots, but can feature you in your element. Bring a prop along that can illustrate your hobby, personality or even future plans. Some examples of this would be instruments, an item from your future college, a letterman jacket, prop from a sport or club you are involved in...there are lots of options! If you have an idea that you are unsure about just ask!
