Senior Photography Session

PLANNING YOUR

start your pinterest board

Fashion, hairstyles, makeup looks, textures, poses you love, colors you like, locations you love, magazine images, other photography you love.  

WHAT TO PIN

The most important thing you can do to help me plan your session is to create a detailed Pinterest board for your senior session. The more you pin, the better. Think of your Senior Session Pinboard as a direct line to getting the most out of your senior images. It helps tell me what your style is like, the types of locations that you feel drawn to and also poses you like.

Packing list

As soon as your session is over , I transfer your photos to my computer , make a backup and start editing. A few days after your session, I typically upload one or two sneak peek images onto my various social media platforms. During the editing process, I will keep with my normal style of editing - the style that you booked me for. My goal is to give you natural, timeless photography that captures your unique personality. Approximately 2-3 weeks after your session date your gallery will be ready for viewing & ordering.

What to expect after your session:

Come early (think 15 minutes early) ... the sun doesn't wait for us! We will meet at our specified location- make sure you're dressed and ready by the time we will start so we can start shooting right away!

We'll do lots of poses , backgrounds and walk around the location for various looks. I try to keep the atmosphere relaxed and try not to make it all about posing. 

What to expect at your session

Reschedule Policy
If it’s raining or is forecasted to rain during our session time or before where our locations will be extremely wet and limit our session I will e-mail or call you before you are scheduled to arrive. We will move forward with using your backup date or chat about availability and the next opening to get your photos done.
