Mesa Senior Portraits

Senior portraits are one of the most exciting parts of senior year! I love it when I find fun ways to incorporate any ideas my seniors have.  Planning ahead for your senior pictures really can make the experience less stressful.  What an absolutely amazing session I had with these twins who recently be graduated from Red Mountain High School! From the second Paige contacted me about a senior portrait session with her twin brother, the planning began! We chose Downtown Mesa as our location for the afternoon, Paige brought several amazing outfits, and Alex (like most guys) brought just a couple of things. But one of those things was a crown!!! Ok, so they’re both theater kids, but a crown?!?! I really wasn’t sure how this was going to go, and we did a few basic shots for Alex. And then, get this, a TREE got in my way! It happened to be perfectly blocking out the letters “par” from a parking sign, so that was it! With a little photoshop magic, we made Alex the “king”!

Multiple Locations and Unlimited Outfits

I love going out on location and just wandering, particularly with teens because we can shoot whatever looks fun. So we made the rounds from the Sirrine House, to Main Street (well, the back side of it) to Pepper Street, to…ok, let’s just say we wandered for nearly 2 hours! When all was said and done, their professional portrait session produced nearly 50 unique images of these two talented teen actors without leaving the area! Of course we also got some amazing shots of the two of them that are a must have for Mom.  Then we got some gorgeous fashion images for Paige and some urban images for Alex!  That’s one of the things I love about this area. We can get some traditional shots, colorful urban images, or even add a vintage touch, depending on your style!

Behind the Scenes

What do I remember most? That outtake…you know, the one where Alex’s antics brought out that super crazy reaction from Paige? Priceless!! Even with actors, you can’t plan a reaction like that!

A poolside vacation is a great way to unwind and destress. Being in the water and under the sun can help you relax so all your worries float away. However, making the most of your resort vacation also means remembering certain things.

Check out the exceptional styling from this senior portrait session in Chandler, Arizona.  As we planned, Kelci and her mom decided that having her in the water would be a great addition to her portrait session. She chose a colorful bouquet, brought her dive medals, and we found the perfect desert locations for her senior portrait session.

Moms, take note and save this post! If you aren't sure what clothes your son should wear for senior pictures, just follow Kaden's example. He's got everything from casual t-shirts and jeans to a GQ look in a styled blue suit! His entire sessions shows great ideas for posing, and expressions too. I always try to get a balance of smiling and serious expressions whenever I’m on a shoot, but when you've got a face as photogenic as Kaden's, serious snaps are definitely a requirement!
