1. Book Your Session (3–6 Months Out)
Summer Senior Pictures provide that golden hour glow same for fall senior pictures. Book early to grab those prime time slots—especially weekends! Want to read more about the different seasons for senior pictures? CLICK HERE
2. Start Planning Outfits (3 Months Out)
Get creative with your looks: one casual, one dressy, and one that screams you. Snap mirror selfies to test your outfits. Layers, accessories, and color combos make a huge difference in your senior pictures.
3. Hair + Makeup (2 Months Out)
Schedule trims, color touch-ups, or makeup trials about two months ahead. The goal? A look that’s polished and totally “you”—not a brand-new experiment the day of your shoot.
4. Choose Your Location (2 Months Out)
Want edgy urban, soft natural, or dreamy studio? We’ll collaborate to pick the best spots for your vibe. I help every client scout their perfect location so your senior pictures have the ideal backdrop.
5. Order Props + Accessories (4–6 Weeks Out)
Want to bring your grad cap, sports gear, or that iced coffee that’s practically your personality? Order anything you need with enough time to spare.
6. Confirm All the Details (2 Weeks Out)
We’ll hop on a quick Zoom call to go over:
Outfits
Final location picks
Any last-minute tweaks
I’ll make sure you’re 100% ready and confident before the big day!
7. Shoot Day!
Arrive early, bring your energy, and get ready to slay. I’ll guide you through every pose and moment—we’re going to make magic ✨
P.S. Want to bring your bestie for a few fun shots during your session? YES, you totally can! It's such a fun way to celebrate your friendship and capture memories you'll both love.
