Guitar with a Side of Country – Senior Photographer the Woodlands

Personalize your senior portraits by bringing props or personal items that tell a story about you! For your senior pictures, stand out from the rest by showing your talents, your abilities, or your interests. Bring along a musical instrument, your letterman jacket, sports equipment, your favourite book or even your truck – all these things help make your senior portrait session more about you and less about photographing poses. Senior portraits are all about you and telling your story in pictures, so let’s craft a session that lets you tell others what you’re all about.

Pretty Texas Style Senior Portraits The Woodlands

What makes a senior session all Texan? Pretty senior styling, a country location with plenty of sunshine, jean shorts and of course – cowboy boots! This senior looks absolutely gorgeous in white and blue against the greenery and wood, with her long hair perfectly styled and just a bit of wind.  This senior came to me from Cypress for her senior pictures, and I’m so honoured she chose to make the drive! The buildings in the back and the wooden bridge add something extra to the first series of her senior photoshoot, before we moved to the field. It’s nice to have a little variety in your senior pictures!

Natural Senior Portraits – The Woodlands Texas

This lovely senior session has everything I love about taking senior pictures — a beautiful day, a great location, sunshine and flowers, and a happy soon-to-be graduate excited to celebrate senior year and the great future ahead!

My philosophy for senior pictures is to take timeless, classic portraits that will never go out of style. We want you to look *like you* but styled and polished, fresh from the salon. The poses will be fun and stylish, but not contrived or juvenile, or overly adult looking. You’ll look just as you are – fun, young, carefree and ready to face whatever life throws your way! You can be confidant that your final images will be amazingly perfect and perfectly you.

Rooftop Senior Session the Woodlands Photographer

We had a gorgeous day for this senior’s pictures, especially at the end of the evening when we ended up on the rooftop with a view of the Woodlands skyline. Senior boys are fun to shoot, and they always have so much personality. Moms always worry their sons aren’t too willing for the photoshoot, but they always end up with fantastic photos and have a great time, even suggesting poses!

You deserve to have great photos of senior year, and mom deserves to have keepsake photos before the kids go off to college – my senior mini sessions for boys are perfect for that.  Click here to read more about senior mini sessions for boys in the Spring, Conroe, Woodlands Klein, and Cypress districts.

Graduation and Glitter – The Woodlands Seniors

Graduation celebration – with glitter! When you’re a senior, there’s a lot to celebrate. You’re upcoming high school graduation, your freshman year of college coming up, a whole new life starting, it’s a fantastic time! For your senior pictures or for a special grad portrait mini session, here’s a few ideas for some fun senior grad portraits.

GLITTER. Always a fun shot! Bring glitter that matches your school colours if you can. If not, gold is a great choice since it catches the sunlight perfectly.

HAND SIGNALS.  You probably already know where you’re headed come September. Texas schools especially are known for having unique hand signals for their schools. Learn yours so you can show friends and family where you’re off to next year. Also bring your COLLEGE SHIRT. A great idea for sharing on Instagram with your new school. Wear your shirt, upload the photo and tag the school to share in the fun. Also a great shot for announcements!

SHOW YOUR ROOTS with detail shots. No matter where you’re off to next year, show your home state pride by adding touches of Texas such as cowboy boots. For a special graduation touch, you can chalk your graduation year onto the soles of your boots for a fun shot to remember all the details!

Graduation Portraits – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Congratulations to these brothers and sister who are all graduating from high school! We shot their cap and gown graduation portraits on a beautiful sunny day in the park. Graduation cap and gown portraits make for the perfect print to include in your senior graduation announcements. These siblings will have their cap and gown prints included in the envelope with their graduation announcement, so friends and family can have a keepsake of their achievement. Well done and good luck in the future!

Senior Photography Outdoors in the Woodlands

This golden glowing light is the most beautiful setting for a senior portrait session in the Woodlands, for natural portraits outdoors. This is the beautiful golden hour we wait for, at the end of the session, to surround you with a gorgeous glow for your senior pictures! This senior chose one of the most photogenic colours as well – blue for the first part of her session and shades of fuchsia and raspberry for this latter half of her senior pictures. It matches the greenery perfectly, and is a beautiful tone for your senior portraits.

The Woodlands High School Photographer Senior Boys

Sessions for senior boys is really one of my fave types of shoots – the guys are always laid back  and willing to please their mamas to get some great shots to remember senior year. The hour flies by, and they cooperate so well when asked to do simple poses. And posing for seniors boys is SO easy they won’t feel like they’re being posed at all. There are some go-to poses that I always use for my senior guys that are guaranteed to please both the seniors and the parents. We aim for natural, relaxed and easy going to capture their natural charm.

Hunter was no exception! A really nice guy who patiently put up with my camera for an hour with a smile and no complaints. Thanks for the great session!

Graduation Announcements – The Woodlands Senior Pictures

Custom designed senior and graduation announcements are the perfect way to get exactly what you want, in the style you want, to get your message to your friends and family. I work with seniors and parents to choose the best size, style, and design for your needs. Flat cards, in either 5×5 or 5×7 size, are a cost effective option. Or you can choose a more elaborate 5×5 or 5×7 trifold card, to add more images and text. All announcements come in packs of 25, and include envelopes. There are dozens of press paper card stock options, from environmentally friendly recycled eco-matte to luxuriant enhanced linen or felt textured paper. I have swatches in my office, to show you exactly how these press papers look and feel.

Simple flat cards highlight a few of your fave shots, with a small space on the front or back for the main text.

senior announcements the woodlands high schools

graduation cards for senior students

 

Trifold cards allow you to put more images and text, and more creativity when designing. Depending on if your card is a simple grad announcement, or a party invitation, your design can include the senior’s name, high school information, date of graduation or party, the University or College the student will be attending in the fall with the chosen major, and any specific notes your friends and family would need to know for the grad party.

This beautiful senior had a fantastic sunny day for her senior portraits in the Woodlands.

The Musician Senior Photographer The Woodlands

Time flies, and I’m seeing the younger siblings of my past senior clients coming in for their turn! This young man is the younger brother of one of my seniors from a previous graduating class from the Klein area, you can see big brother’s senior pictures here. For his turn, this class of 2017 senior brought his own props along too – his guitar! I always have fun taking senior pictures that showcase a hobby or skill, it makes the portraits so much more personal and representative! I’m so pleased I could meet this family and the boys have a matching set of great portraits for their wall canvas collage. And mom now has some great wall art!

Pre-Teen Photography – The Woodlands Tween Photographer

Parents know that  one of the most fascinating stages of our children’s lives are when they are at that age in-between childhood and adulthood – the Tween Years. Still full of laughter and innocence of childhood, but growing into their own as they inch towards becoming young adults. They will still hug and hold your hand in public. They’re learning to have opinions on everything, and are starting to have real in depth conversations about the world around them. This stage of awareness is a beautiful time for us as parents emotionally as we watch their bodies and faces change so swiftly ….. so why  is this stage of life the *least photographed stage* for our children? 

Don’t settle for just the school photo as the defining portrait of your pre-teen. Book a PRE-TEEN SESSION with Shannon Stroubakis to beautifully capture this most amazing, most fleeting time in your child’s life. You’ll receive amazing portraits of your pre-teen without fakes smiles and posing. Real, authentic portraits. True smiles and laughter. And it’s not just a portrait session – it’s an afternoon out together, making memories you’ll have forever. Click here to learn more about Pre-Teen Sessions and email for complete information.

Bright and Colourful Senior Session – The Woodlands Photographer

This sweet senior had a perfect day for her senior session in the Woodlands and Spring — sun soaked, light breeze, perfect temperature. Her outfit choices are worth noting here – notice how gorgeous that bright purple colour looks? How it makes the image pop so much more, and adds interest? Adding a pop of colour to your senior session makes a huge difference in the final image!  She also matched her outfits to the various backdrops very well. For the sunny, natural setting she wore neutrals and soft colours, against the more urban backdrops she had black accessories, dark pants and boots. Pulling it all together like this makes for a successful senior session!

Outdoor Senior Photography The Woodlands

When it comes to senior boys, they want simple and fast. Moms want some great shots of their sons before they head out to college, classic portraits for yearbooks and keepsakes. The best compromise is to book one of my mini sessions for senior boys! It’s short and sweet, at just one hour, which the guys appreciate. But it still leaves enough time for a couple outfit changes, and to get some amazing portraits that families will love and cherish. It also comes with a 5×7 hard cover spiral bound proofbook, with velvet tote bag, as a keepsake. Everybody wins! Read more about Senior Minis for Boys here.

This Klein senior chose two adjacent locations for a little variety — the urban streets and the greenery and wood of a more natural location. With the gorgeous weather we had, it was perfect for walking around looking for fun little spots to shoot!

The Woodlands Senior Photographer – Chic Urban

I’m really loving this new trend for seniors, taking their portraits out of the grass and into the streets! The urban look is so filled with potential for colour, shapes, shadows, and architectural elements like windows, stairs, and metal. Adding some colourful clothes and this stylish black leather jacket, and you have a perfect senior session in the Woodlands with a chic urban edge! This is the first half of this senior session, before we moved to another Woodlands location for the rest!

Celebrating Graduation – The Woodlands Photographer

This lovely young lady just graduated college, so to celebrate her shiny  new diploma she commissioned me to take some beautiful portraits of her to share with friends and family! We included some props to show off her huge accomplishment, like her graduation cap, diploma, and textbooks that were important to her field of study.  I had a great time with this college grad, and we made sure to take some headshot style pictures to use for her social media and employment profile.

Choosing Your Wall Portrait Size, Style and Format: The Woodlands Portrait Photographer

The family portrait is an important investment, so it’s essential to ensure you have carefully considered the overall look, style and proportion for the final piece. When your family, senior, engagement or maternity portrait session is completed, I invite clients for an in person Viewing Appointment so I can personally help you choose the perfect size, ratio and medium for your wall portrait. I’ll show you samples of the products I offer, so you can inspect and touch the products yourself.

For gallery wrapped canvases, these come ready to hang and you do not need to frame them. Metals are designed to be hung without a frame to show off the superior gloss, and the sturdy waterproof and UV resistant design means you don’t have to worry about sun or water damage. For photographic prints I offer complimentary styrene mounting so you can mount your portrait on the wall without a frame, and it’s thin enough to put in wall frames.  Here is a comparison of a senior portrait from a session in the Woodlands.

WITH FRAMES

OPTION 1:  By using a larger frame, you can highlight your wall portrait with accent matting around a smaller size print. The portrait keeps  it’s original ratio and composition intact with matching coloured mat before being inserted into a  frame. The matted frame means you don’t have to crop the original shot. There is a wide variety of colors and styles to choose from, for custom or traditional matted frames.

matting-8x12

 

OPTION 2: Without matting. This option zooms in larger on the image, but crops out some of the background and the subject.

 

framed-16x20

WITHOUT FRAMES

 

OPTION 1: A mounted print, metal or canvas without the frame. The traditional camera ratio for older cameras was 4:5, which created the infamous 8×10 desk print. As a wall portrait, your image could be anything from a 16×20 to a 32×40 or larger. Since the camera shoots at a 2:3 ratio, this crops your image.

 

crop-16x20

OPTION 2: A mounted print, metal or canvas without the frame, left in it’s original composition and ratio. This size works well for image of standing subjects, where you want to keep the surrounding environment. For this image, it’s the best choice for this particular image to keep the beautiful field around her.

Lufkin Senior Photographer – Golden Light

For the second half of this Lufkin senior’s session, we left the shopping district featured in the first half of her session to go out into the park among the greenery. We were hoping to catch some gorgeous golden light on the leaves, as a change of pace from shooting around the shops and market street of her first location. And we found it! Her beautiful and airy white dress was the perfect compliment to the natural environment in the park. We also made sure to shoot a few in her cap and gown, for graduation announcements. And of course, with her Aggie banner, so she can announce to the world where she will be matriculating next year!

Senior Portraits – Urban Shopping District

This gorgeous senior came all the way from Lufkin for her senior portraits, and we had a lot of fun shooting around the shopping district for some fun, colourful urban senior portraits! This is the first half of her senior session, in the more urban style location before we moved out into the park.

I really love shooting around the streets, in front of the shops, under the terraces and on the staircases, using reflective surfaces like the black stone and windows to add some interest! It’s a nice, fast change of pace from the leisurely shoots in the field, adding a bit of glitz and glamour to your senior shoot if you have more of an urban inspired personality! Stay tuned for more from this senior’s portrait session!

Pretty in Blue – Senior Photography in the Woodlands

For the second part of this senior session, we had the most beautiful light in the field! This senior has a very pretty, feminine personal style (she told me she LOVES bows!) so the overall style, props and poses were cute and girly to match her adorable smile.  This session was all  soft colours, lace and billowy dresses, natural soft light and sunshine, and this pretty little lace umbrella I brought for the session for her to pose with.  She was a natural with her big blue eyes and delicate posing! So many of the images from her senior session ended up in prints, as portraits and in her senior announcements. I’m always pleased to see beautiful client images come to life in prints and products!
