Hello & Welcome all you Senior parents! Are you surviving? My children have just entered the teen years and I feel like nobody talks about just what goes on because they’re trying to survive! So, congratulations! You made it this far! This is a momentous occasion as you get ready to hand off your child into the world of higher education or advanced career training. It’s the last time you can force them to take pictures for you! This moment is as much for you as it is for them, but I love including them in the styling and design of their session. Take a peek at my work, check out some answers to important questions, and then message me for more details. I also love chatting by phone so you can tell me everything I need to know about your teen!
Most importantly, I want you and your teen to know that it’s okay to be weird here. In fact, I encourage it.
What to Know About Senior Portraits
I answer all your questions about Senior Photo Sessions…
WHAT IF…My teen hates having their picture taken!
No problem. I shoot fast and keep everyone moving.
WHAT IF…They only want to wear camo or joggers or camo joggers!
I get it. I have one of those myself. We can chat about wardrobe, but I have a “come as you are” wardrobe philosophy. Ripped jeans and camo tees and all. This moment, like all other rites of passage before it, should be as authentic as possible.
WHAT IF…We want the works! Hair, makeup, gown rental and all!
I have some great partners to help you out. It’s a great opportunity to let you teen know how important they are by getting a fresh hairstyle and exploring all the options for instagram worthy gowns, even if you don’t plan on posting anything on social media!
WHAT IF…I need location ideas.
I have some AMAZING locations in the Metro Detroit area. Want to climb rocks? Feel like a queen in an enchanted forest? Practice some herbology in an historic greenhouse? I’ve got amazing nature-filled spots for your session. I’m also available to meet you at home, among the lego sets, robots, art supplies, and game controllers. (scroll down just a bit for a great shot of a “life at home” session)
WHAT IF…I just need some pictures for Grandma.
Oh man have I been there. Listen, sometimes you don’t need three hours and five locations and seven wardrobe changes. My sessions are designed to allow you to decide what you need. My Simple Senior package is perfect for you!
WHAT IF…I needed prints and an album and maybe some other things.
100% you do. I have some great options available for purchase after you select your favorite pictures. Professional prints, wallets, folio boxes with matted prints, and the “Celebration” album where we combine notes of encouragement from family and friends with your graduate’s photos. I can even help with wall art design.
WHAT IF…I have no idea what I need, but I definitely need help.
No problem mama! You have so many choices when it comes to senior portraits. I’d love to chat further and help you create the celebratory moment you’re hoping for!
