See What a Full Senior Session Looks Like—Start to Finish
High School Senior Portraits That Tell the Whole Story
From the first outfit to the final shot, every senior session is packed with variety, personality, and seriously stunning images.
Here 3 ways I create variety for my senior sessions:
Often you’ll see only a photographer’s best 2-3 images on social media, but what about the rest of the photo shoot? Click on any gallery below to see what a full senior portrait session looks like when I’m behind the camera. Multiple locations and outfits will make your senior pictures stand out!
Outfits
When your senior portrait session allows 4+ outfits, that is a great start to having a gallery filled with different images. It’s always a great idea to mix up styles and colors too. Choose casual, trendy, and formal looks, then don’t forget shoes and accessories.
Locations
There are so many beautiful locations for senior pictures in the Phoenix area! The best part is that even when I use the same location, your pictures will still be unique. After all, nobody else is “you,” so let’s go with no stress and more smiles.
Lighting
In photography, lighting is everything! I mix up lighting at every session. Sometimes we’ll be indoors and use off camera lighting, other times we’ll find some beautiful soft light outdoors. You’ll go from elegant to edgy with just a change in lighting.
Michelle was amazing!
“Michelle was amazing! My daughter is not one for attention and didn’t really know what she wanted for her senior pictures, but Michelle found a way to make her pictures beautiful! Michelle got creative and had us bring her record player and some albums as props and they turned out so cute. She also had us bring some books since my daughter likes to read. She found a way to fit the props in and make some very fun and gorgeous pictures. We couldn’t be happier! Michelle is so helpful and patient and we are so glad we were able to work with her!”
