Day 3: What Makes a Great Senior Photo—Tips for Parents & Students 🎓


Senior year is a milestone, and capturing it requires more than just a camera—it demands understanding and preparation. Here are key elements to consider:


  1. Personal Style: Choose outfits that reflect the student’s personality. Comfort translates to confidence in photos.
  2. Meaningful Locations: Select settings that hold significance, be it a favorite park, school, or urban backdrop. 
  3. Props and Accessories: Incorporate items that tell a story—musical instruments, sports gear, or books.
  4. Time of Day: Golden hour provides soft, flattering light, enhancing the overall aesthetic.


Using lenses like the 85mm f/1.4, I focus on capturing authentic expressions and moments that resonate.
