You’ve done it! Your daughter has reached her final year of high school. I am so grateful to be apart of capturing this moment for you and your daughter - photos that commemorate this beautiful transition become so important as time goes on. Senior year is so full!!
I want to help take the guesswork out of the senior photos process and turn the experience into a fun, special memory for you and your daughter to share during her senior year. Below are a few thoughts that I want to share that have helped my seniors have wonderful senior photos experiences from the initial call to the gallery delivery day.
I created this guide below to help answer the questions that parents have going into their daughters senior sessions…a shoot filled with smiles, twirling, beautiful light, and adventures awaits :)
After inquiring, we will set up a date for a virtual planning session to set the tone for an amazing session.
I encourage parents to pop in for this meeting. Let your daughter do most of the talking and decide which locations/style/look she wants to incorporate into her shoot, but feel free to chime in with any logistical questions you might have.
Pre Shoot
It’s wonderful when parents come with for their daughter’s senior shoot - it really is such a special day, and just so fun!! However, no one feels comfortable really letting their modeling skills shine when other people are watching. Definitely come with - you can grab coffee, glass of wine. I recommend staying close by, and you can be there for if needed for help with outfit changes/carrying things/and driving from location to location - but give her space while photos are being taken so it doesn’t feel like she has the pressure of an audience watching!
Towards the very end of your daughter’s shoot, I always love to have you join in for a quick 5 minute Mom/Daughter or Father/daughter photo. These are my favorite shots!! You don’t have to worry about looking perfect before her session… just be you! It’s fun, and sweet, and I bet she will look back at these photos some point during college when she’s feeling a little bit homesick ;)
Make a day of it! Go out for dinner nearby after her session…reflect on the shoot, laugh about silly things that happened during the session..reflect on her favorite memories from high school and your favorite memories of her in high school! Let me know if you need any restaurant recommendations near your shoot!
