CLASS OF 2022: You’ve been lied to about senior pictures!

Senior Year

May 25, 2021

We are here to dispel the rumors and get it straight!

Lie #1: “All senior pics are the same.” Ummm… no. Senior pictures can range from $ to $$$, dark and moody edits to bright and colorful edits, studio to natural light and everything in between. And even on top of the images themselves, the session experience can range from none at all to an entire day full of prepping, getting glam, etc. Every experience is different and finding the right photographer for you should involve comparisons between the different images produced and the different experience provided.

Lie #2: “Professional pics aren’t important.” Yikes. Yes… they are. You are smack in the middle of what we like to call a “life event” stage. What is a life event? Something you cannot do over again. Newborn pictures, wedding pictures, and senior pictures are literally the only kind of portraiture that cannot be reproduced at a later date. You’re only a senior about to embark on the rest of your life ONE TIME EVER. This is it. Hiring a professional is so important to make sure that this time of your life is properly documented. Trusting just anyone with such an important task is a real gamble on the only thing you’ll have to remember this moment in your life by.

Lie #3: “Senior pics aren’t a big deal.” See above. Really… the next time you’re going to take pictures like this? You’ll be likely wearing a white dress or dressed in a tux and pledging your life the someone you love. AKA your wedding!

If you are finally ready to document such an incredible time in your life, fill out our contact form, and we’ll send you our Class of 2022 Senior Magazine & get you booked for one of our July – October dates!
