Senior Pictures in Metro Detroit, Michigan are not what they used to be. Unfortunately, many students (and parents) have not realized that Lifestyle Senior Photography has evolved far beyond indoor photography chains and green screens (Yup. Green screens. Just like the weatherman!). In fact, if you are attending a large public school like those throughout Metro Detroit, the options are limitless. Literally! Having to “settle” is a thing of the past. CHOOSE to LOVE your Senior Portraits!
Thousands of high school seniors in Metro Detroit flock to chain photography studios that their school district contract for their annual yearbooks each year. As a result, seniors end up sitting in front of mottled backdrops or, worse, behind cheesy 3 foot tall letters that spell S-E-N-I-O-R. The end result is each student receives the same boring portraits as everyone else simply because the chain studios all are using the same lighting, the same backgrounds, the same posing stands and given the same directions like “Tilt your head to the right”, “Lift your chin up”, “Move your hand to your left” and … “Look at the camera”.
But, you really can’t blame the discounted photography chain can you? They’re often staffed with part-time college students that were given a “Guide Book” that shows them where to place the student, where to put the lights and where to stand when they push the button. It’s all they know.
The truth is, students have the choice of where they would like to have the senior pictures taken.
