Your senior year of high school is an important time in your life, so it should be documented well. If you want to pose in front of a cloth backdrop with a giant number, you should should probably go to Sear's and save your parents some money. If you like bold, dynamic photos like I do, read on and find out how to get them.

These photos can be proudly displayed via the social network of your choice, as well as sent to distant relatives to remind them that you are not eight years old anymore and maybe they should visit more often. Your parents will love these photos because your parents love you, and you are in them. You will love these photos because they are awesome.

How it works

Photo sessions last around 2 hours and cost $200. I know a variety of outdoor locations we can use for various looks, but if you have a suggestion for a place to shoot, I'd like to hear it. I like natural light, but I also bring my own in case it doesn't co-operate. Wardrobe changes are fine, but every outift you add means more time changing and less time shooting. I wouldn't go past two or three outfits. Bring a parent or friend along if you like. Not only are such people useful for holding stuff and fixing your hair, but being around people you like will put you at ease. The more relaxed and comfortable you are, the better you'll look, and the better the pictures will be. You can even combine your senior photo session with a classmate! The photo session will be longer and we'll take pictures of the two of you both individually and together.

After the photo session, We'll schedule an appointment in a week's time to view and purchase photos. I'll need about an hour to show the photos I have selected and explain the various ways you can buy them. You can see the price list here. Be ready to purchase photos at this meeting! Make sure everyone who has a say in picking the photos attends. Once you have ordered, you will receive your prints within a week.
