5 Reasons You Should Have a Senior Photoshoot

Your senior year in high school is a once in a lifetime experience. Between the excitement of graduating and the uncertainty of what's to come, you deserve to have this moment captured. A senior photoshoot isn't just a tradition, it's a great way to show everyone who you are. Here are five reasons why you should book one today!

1. Celebrating Who You Are

   
   

   Your high school years, particularly your senior year, are extremely transformative. The passions and experiences you have are carried with you your whole life and really shape the adult you are about to become. A senior photoshoot is a chance to showcase who you are at this moment. Let your individuality shine during this time in your life.

2. Commemorating Your Achievement

   
   

   Graduating is a huge milestone! You've worked hard for years studying for tests, doing homework and taking pop quizzes all while navigating through your teenage years. Senior portraits serve as a reminder of how far you've come. Whether you'll be attending college, starting a new job or taking a year off, this is the closing of a chapter in your life and that deserves to be celebrated.

   
   

   Your photos can be used as graduation announcements, your yearbook and my favorite, framed in your home to always serve as a reminder of this special time

   
   
   
   

   

   
   
   
   

3. Senior Photoshoots Are Fun!

   
   

   It's not just about the final images. It's also about the experience! Most seniors are surprised by the amount of fun they have during their session. It's your chance to dress up, strike up some traditional and wacky poses, be goofy and capture authentic smiles. Your photographer will guide you through the whole experience so all you have to worry about is being yourself and having a good time

   
   
   
   

   

   
   
   
   

4. Show Off Your Skills and Passions

   
   

   A senior photoshoot is a great way to demonstrate what makes you, you. Whether you're an athlete, chess master, a great cook or a vinyl record collector, incorporating your hobbies and passions into your session adds a personal touch and at the end of the day, that's what it's all about.

   
   

   Examples:

   
   

   - If you enjoy spending the weekends out on the boat, catching some fish then let's head to the lake and capture some images of you doing just that.

   
   

   - Are you a football player? GREAT! Put the pads on and I'll meet you out on the field

   
   

   -A book lover? There's no reason we can't take some photos of you surrounded by your books.

   
   

   Your senor photos should tell a story. Your story.

   
   
   
   

   

   
   
   
   

5. Your Future Self Will Thank You

   
   

   Years from now, you'll be able to look back at your senior photos and remember this exciting time of your life. Take it from me, someone who graduated high school in 2006, when I say I wish I had some epic pictures of my time back then. See I was a powerlifter back then. Lifting weights was my life. My passion. My obsession. I had all the lifting records at my school and was insanely proud of that and the work I put into it. Fast forward twenty years and I'm no powerlifter anymore. For that reason, I wish I could have pictures of me at that time. Twenty years from now, you'll be glad that you have these photos. Your family will too. Including your future children.
