Want to know the formula for a great senior session experience?!? Don’t worry, we won’t make you do math… but we can tell you the way to get perfect senior photos. Planning, planning, planning… but what does that mean? This is your first time being a senior… but I do it over and over again every year! I have taken some of my best tips for planning, and put them together for you! Check out the formula below for capturing great senior photos…

The formula for the perfect senior photos

  • pre-session prep info: What should I wear? What color nail polish do I pick? How can I have smooth skin for makeup application?!? What colors look best on me. By having loads These questions are answered in our downloadable resources when you book your session! We will help you prepare for your session with easy checklists and will never leave you to figure it out yourself!
  • wardrobe help: Worried about how to put outfits together for your session? That’s why we offer fashion consults! This is the time to bring in all of the outfits you’re considering wearing for the session! We will look at all of your outfits and start deciding on what to keep and what to consider adding to outfits to polish them off. By the end of the session you’ll know exactly what you’re wearing, where you’re wearing
    it, and how your makeup and hair will match each outfit change!
  • stress free session prep: Who wants a senior portrait experience where you just have to wake up and show up without having to do your own makeup and worry about not doing it right, or nervous session day jitters taking over? Yes please! This is one of the main reasons we require pre-session makeup application and hair styling – so you don’t have to worry about doing your own makeup and getting it portrait perfect! Leave that to the pros!
  • poses & locations that reflect the real you: Did you know that we decide the locations of your session based on your outfits and a pre-session consult before we leave the salon? If you don’t want urban, we won’t shoot at those spots! If you want all urban, we can do that too! We’ll also make sure that your poses are natural and show off your personality all the way down to your natural mannerisms!
  • natural & organic edits: Worried about having plastic skin or alien eye in your senior pics? At AHP, I refuse to edit away your pores, freckles and beauty marks. I won’t “size you down” or throw filters at your images that represent false colors. You are perfect just the way you are… let me help you realize that with stunning skin texture and tone, your true shape and the real tones & colors from your session day.
  • senior picture products (beyond the digitals): Our sessions actually include an ordering and design session so you get the photos you love and the perfect heirloom products to show them off. Whats the most popular? Our signature album with a custom cover! Our clients have been known to gasp when they see their gorgeous album!
