SENIOR PORTRAITS FAQ

When should I book my senior session?

The earlier, the better—especially if you want those dreamy fall colors or spring blossoms! Most seniors book in the summer before or fall of senior year. Reach out at least 2-3 months in advance to make sure we can find the perfect date.

What should I wear?

Wear what makes you feel confident and like yourself! I’ll help guide you with outfit ideas and what photographs best. Most seniors bring 2–3 looks: something casual, something a little dressier, and something that really shows your personality. Want to rock a prom dress or varsity jacket? Let’s do it!

Can I include props or my car/pet/sport?

Yes, yes, and yes! This session is all about telling your story—so if there’s something important to you, let’s include it. Cars, instruments, pets, hobbies, sports gear—we can work it in naturally to reflect who you are.  Seniors often include favorite books, art supplies, playing cards, or snacks (yep, even Chipotle!). 

What if I don't want props?

Many seniors just want to be photographed by themselves, without any props.  Either way is perfect.  This session is all about you, so you get to choose (with mom's approval, of course).

Do you help with locations?

Absolutely. We’ll talk about your vibe—urban, nature, downtown charm, studio, golden fields, etc.—and I’ll suggest spots that match your style. I’ve got some tried-and-true favorites, and I’m always up for something new if you have a spot in mind.

I'm awkward in photos.  Help?

You're not alone, and I’ve got you! I’ll coach you every step of the way with easy, natural posing that doesn’t feel stiff or cheesy. We’ll keep it fun and relaxed so you feel like you in every shot.

Can I bring a friend or parent?

Of course! I actually encourage it—sometimes having your biggest cheerleader there makes everything more fun. Just let me know who’s coming so we can plan accordingly. For those under 18, and adult may be required depending on the session plan.
