Outdoor Senior Pictures in the Woodlands and Spring TX

This gorgeous senior came all the way from Hargrove High for her senior portrait session, and what a beautiful day we had! After her complimentary hair and make up session (all you girls get treated to a fabulous salon day, with your session!), we met at this pretty country location in Spring, TX for a country style shoot out!

We had such pretty light on her session day, making for beautiful senior pictures full of sun and warmth. This sweet dress is perfect for a senior photoshoot — a little flowy, a pretty floral pattern, a pretty shade of lavender, a quirky gold bow, and an elegant top of ruched cream. Lovely!

Another outfit,  a flowy shirt with casual jean shorts. Having a pair of shorts or jeans at your session is always recommended for at least one set, so we can get some great poses that we can’t get with a skirt or dress.

It’s a good idea to choose a location that has different elements to incorporate into your senior session — stairs, building, a bridge, a pretty field with a wide open sky, a country road, or a gazebo. These make for variety in your senior pictures, plus add interest and visual lines. I love these stairs!!

The Woodlands Senior Photographer – Waterway Park

This beautiful senior is on her way to Baylor in September as you can tell by her first outfit choice  – a pretty shift shirt in Baylor colours!  This is the first half of her senior session in the Woodlands, with the first two outfit changes, before we moved on to Spring for the rest of the session.  We chose Waterway Park for the amazing light in the canals, and to add a bit of urban flair before we moved on to the “country half” of the session in the field.

An absolute *must have shot* for your senior portrait session is you in your letterman jacket! You have mad skills and talent  —  you worked hard for those patches and badges, so make sure to get a great shot of you wearing them proudly! This goes for band or sports uniforms too!

Change of location and outfit! Rompers are a *hot fashion trend* this year! She looks amazing in this cute black and white romper, a classic twist on this trendy look for this urban style location. I love the neutral walls of this little spot, the subjects just POP against the plain grey backdrop.

Senior Photography in The Woodlands, TX

Another fabulous senior from this season, Miss Madison, for her Class of 2015 senior portraits! When we met for our pre consultation, we oohed and awwed over the awesome outfits we were going to feature in her senior session  to match the location. She came with some pretty gorgeous outfits, and that white dress was just perfect for the field location. What to wear for your senior portraits is such a big question, so we very carefully go over all your options before the session, to make sure the colours, textures and accessories all go together for tonal harmony and make sense with the chosen locations.  She chose the Luxe Senior Session, which includes hair and make up styling before the big shoot.

We started with a more casual style, with boots and a bright pop of red. She wanted her senior pictures to showcase natural elements, like trees and flowers, with wood textures in the background to match her more natural style. And these bright flowers were the perfect accent for her first outfit of the shoot!

An outfit change, from country style to soft and trendy. When she first showed me this shirt, I knew she had to include it for her senior photos! A gorgeous shade of blue that matched her eyes, and an interesting unusual pattern,  combined with that flowy airy texture, really made for an eye popping combination against the rustic wood backdrop.

Miss Maddie wanted a full half of her senior portrait session to include this stunning white dress. With the last outfit change, we headed out to a wide open field and country road, to catch the gorgeous light on the just-about-to-turn-fall-colours trees and long grasses.

BFF or Sisters Senior Sessions – The Woodlands Senior Portraits

There’s always that one person who has been there for you through thick and thin. Maybe your childhood BFF, your high school bestie, or your sister or cousin. The one you do everything with and celebrate all your milestones. As you enter your senior year of high school and are looking for your senior photographer in Spring or the Woodlands, think about how fun it would be to have your senior portraits taken with your BFF!

These sisters came to me for their senior portraits, and what a beautiful pair! You can see their individual senior pictures featured here and here. When I shoot a double senior session, I make sure to get amazing portraits of each girl in her multiple outfits to show off her own individual personality. These girls booked the Luxe Senior session and had their hair and make up beautifully styled for them, to show off their amazing style. After individual senior pictures, we take portraits of the two of you together, having fun and just being yourselves.

Gorgeous Golden Light – Senior Pictures in Spring TX

Timing is everything. The light is so gorgeously mellow and warm in the last hour before the sun sets, and this is when magic happens, truly. Since a senior portrait session with Shannon Stroubakis is up to three hours long so we can fit in all your outfit changes over the locations, your session is carefully planned so the locations, light, and outfits all coordinate together perfectly.

Beautiful Khrissy booked her senior session with me and after she had her make up professionally done we headed out to the woods to catch some gorgeous backlighting on her amazing ombre hair. We were looking for the perfect spot to shoot some pictures for her senior graduation announcements!

Khrissy had some seriously amazing styling happening! The boho style headband was simple and natural, just perfect for our outdoors locations. Then a quick outfit change, she goes from au naturale to girly and glam. I always advise my senior clients to wear heels or espadrilles for their high school senior pictures. They elongate the legs for a gracelook look and force you into perfect posture which helps with posing.  This little peach dress is a great example of what to wear for your senior portraits for when you want a feminine style – dreamy, flowy in the breeze, and a pretty soft colour that photographs well. It’s also the perfect length for senior portraits — short enough for the hot spring day but not a micro mini so it’s still possible to be comfortable and modest for seated poses. And she rocked those poses!
