General Senior Session Tips

Please bring clothes matched up as complete outfits. They should be pressed and on hangers. Wrinkles will show in portraits!

The outfits you bring should be: Pleasing to Mom -- Pleasing to Grandma -- Pleasing to you!

Get some sleep!

Get a good night's sleep the night before. You'll want to look fresh and well rested. Schedule your session for a time of day when you generally look your best. For some that's first thing in the morning, for others it's later in the day.

Outdoor Photos

Please bring darker clothes for your outdoor shots.

Blues and browns are recommended and look great! Whites or other light colors sometimes wash out in the sun.

Tops

Bring along your favorite jacket or sweater. We suggest long sleeved dark tops for the yearbook portrait.
Bring one black and one white top for some special shots

Something different

Show off your unique style with something fun, formal or wild.

Something classic

A timeless look that won’t make you cringe in twenty years.

Hair

Do your hair before you arrive. We don’t suggest trying any new styles or colors right before your session.

Nails

Keep in mind that your hands will be in your portraits.

Tan Lines

Avoid over-exposure to the sun right before your session. Sunburn can not be retouched out!

Identity clothes

Bring your athletic uniforms, music, arts, etc.

Something casual

Your favorite thing to wear on a normal day.

Details

Bring hats or other accessories that complete your outfit.
Jewelry can complete an outfit.
Shoes may show in some poses. Bring shoes that match your outfits.
Bring sunglasses!

Make up

Ladies – bring lipstick & powder for touchups. It's important not to have any shiny skin. Wear a little more mascara than usual.

Things

Your car, sibling, musical instrument, pet, best friend, athletic gear, etc.
