Senior Photos

Seniors are sassy, determined, confident, silly, bright, bold, sensitive, wild, lovable, energetic, rebellious, sociable, and moody, among so many others! That’s what makes capturing Senior Photos so fun and so rewarding!  Seniors bring so much to a session and capturing their true spirit is my goal.  Setting plays a big part of the session too.  It can be an urban location, a formal garden and park setting, or even a casual bohemian field.  It all depends upon the senior’s personality.  Some seniors request a remembrance – to capture with friends at their school.  Senior Photos can be anything desired!   

 

Where?

I capture seniors all over New Jersey. This state is gorgeous and perfectly diverse. Locations range from formal parks to informal bohemian fields and barns, to beaches, and cool urban locations including cities, factories, and even beach communities. I also offer sessions in New York City. Some clients like more casual sessions and some like more formal. It’s completely up to you and your senior. What fits his/her personality best? If you don’t have any ideas in mind, we work together to find the best location for you. Some of the more formal parks are now requiring photography permits – so please inquire. Permits are not included in my fees but I am happy to secure them with the facilities.

When?

All year. I capture sessions on location from January-November (shooting in the snow is absolutely magical!). Outdoor sessions are only rescheduled due to rain. Please be flexible ~ rain dates are scheduled within 2 weeks and are almost always scheduled on a weeknight. During the spring and fall, my schedule fills very quickly. Most of my sessions take place on weeknights – when most of those beautiful locations are quiet – and a few weekends. Sessions are held 2 hours prior to sunset. Please inquire for avails.

Style

Seniors have a very distinct individual style. It’s imporant to select the right clothing for the session in order to capture each senior’s true personality. Some clothing and colors capture better than others. I offer a consultation with each senior and parent(s) prior to the session to review and recomend the best clothing choices.
