As a Metro Detroit senior pictures photographer, we have the opportunity to work students all across southeast Michigan and even northwest Ohio – a LOT of students! We recently pulled together our list of the Top 5 Tips we have for students planning and preparing for their senior portraits session.
Our Top 5 Styling Tips are:
- Stay Natural
- Vote “No” on Props
- “Poses” are for Posers
- Fake Backgrounds are FAKE
- Own It
We recently did a session with Gregory and he epitomized Own It! Own It is not about not being shy and timid during your senior pictures session. It is all about being yourself and bringing your style to the session. It’s about wearing it. Living it. OWNING IT!
The proofs from Gregory’s session are amazing. They truly express his style and energy in a way that is unique to him. That’s what we love about his images. In fact, the image shown above is one of our favorites from the entire school year and was selected to be featured in our Top 5 Tips Styling Tips for Senior Pictures article.
We highly recommend you check out the article if you are planning you senior portrait session and encourage you to take the advice to heart. It is based on our experience with hundreds of students over a number of years. Those Top 5 Tips really will help you get the most from your session. Great senior portraits don’t just happen because someone points a camera in your general direction and you say, “Cheese.” That’s a snapshot and the “photographer” may as well be using the camera in their smartphone. Great portraits are great because you and your photographer are equally well planned!
If you’re ready to express yourself in a senior pictures session with your own brand of style, please contact us online or call 313-883-9500. We would love the opportunity to work with you and capture your personality your way!
