What To Look For in a Senior Photographer – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Are you looking for your senior photographer? Overwhelmed by the choices out there, and wondering how to go about choosing a senior photographer? Here are a few things to look for, when booking your senior pics.

UPFRONT WITH PRICING
Senior photographers have a VERY wide range of quality and pricing. Does the photographer provide *all* the pricing info up front, when you inquire? Is there an online guide where Collections pricing is open and transparent? Walk away from photographers who are shy about providing pricing information, and steer you away from asking questions. When you book with Shannon Stroubakis, you receive access to a complete information guide, with all pricing upfront, so there are no surprises later. I have sessions and pricing for all budgets, just ask!

QUICK AND EASY TURNAROUND
Senior year is fast paced and busy. You need pictures for your grad party, announcements, and to share with family. How long will it take to get your photos back? Is it easy to download, or do you have to mess around with complex systems to get your portraits? Will you have to wait WEEKS to see your gallery? My turn around time is very fast, and you see your senior portrait gallery within 5-10 days. Upon payment, the gallery is yours to download and prints are ordered immediately and back within 10 days. As an experienced photographer, I have the ability to get your amazing gallery in a timely manner.

ALL NATURAL LOOK AND POSING
Your senior pictures should make you look amazing, but still like YOU. You don’t want to be over Photo-shopped, with stiff or awkward posing, and poor angles. Look for a photographer who’s posing looks natural, whose portfolio is full of images with natural skintones, and whose editing is classic with an artistic twist – not over saturated with a too trendy look that will date your photos fast.

BEAUTIFUL FLATTERING LIGHT
The photos should have lovely lighting that doesn’t cause harsh shadows, or splotchy patches on the faces from dappled light. Pretty backlighting or nice overall even light is best. A good photographer knows how to handle the light and gets out of the boring old overcast lighting! Your senior pictures should stand out from the rest, with artistically used light and shadows, and incorporate the natural light of the environment.

GREAT LOCATIONS
Your senior  photographer should pay attention to the background so the focus stays on you. You want pretty flowers, nice trees, or an urban background for a chic look. NO distractions. No boring settings that make for bland photos.  Pick a photographer who knows how to put you in the environment and make you look like you belong in it, so it all comes together organically. The tonal harmony should be balanced, so you don’t stand out awkwardly in the location. Look through the photographer’s gallery to see if you like the types of locations used, and always ASK if you can use your own fave hangout or space.

How To Get Senior Pictures with a Golden Glow – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Crafting and working with light is what photographers do, and one of my absolute favourite kinds of light to capture on camera for my senior clients is the hazy, mellow glow that only comes at the last vestiges of daylight – the golden hour. Just as the sun is dipping down below the horizon, if you time it right and choose the right location, you get the most amazing golden light across a field or open space, that falls on you like angelic light. Do you want this look for YOUR senior portraits?

Timing is *everything*! This light comes at the very end of the day, so choose a later time for your portraits. The light lasts just minutes, if you’re lucky, so it all builds up this moment!

Choose the right location. You’ll need an open space, like a field or wide open park space.

Some trees work as well, to help filter the light if it’s still bright out.

Get low to the ground. If the sun is setting, but it’s still quite bright, we can get low to the ground so the setting sun peeks out from behind a building or group of trees, to filter that slanted light.

Bring a chair to sit on if you need to, in case the ground is a little wet for getting low to the ground. And to catch those beautiful rays, having your hair loose if it’s long will add drama!

Rooftop Senior Session – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Where to take your senior pictures is a big consideration when we meet to discuss the details of your senior session, and it depends on your personality type. Many girls choose a chic urban center, a gorgeous sunlit field of flowers, or a charming country location with natural elements like bridges and wooden fences. But I find that guys want something a little more edgy – without the flowers, the wheat field, the wood cabins, or shopping stores. A rooftop is the perfect location for a guy’s senior session! It’s simple and uncomplicated, and you get a wide variety of shots that work well with creative wide angle lenses. This is my favourite spot for photographing senior photos with a trendy edge.

Glowing Golden Field – The Woodlands Outdoor Senior Photographer

Overcast days are beautiful for taking pictures around urban centers, to avoid shining spotlights on mirrors and glass, and to let us shoot your senior portraits out in the open without worrying about hot sunspots.

Top 5 Tips To Rock Your Senior Session – The Woodlands Outdoor Senior Photographer

You’ll get all sort of advice on how to make the most of your senior session, and the internet is full of tips, advice columns, Pinterest boards, and “how to’s” with fashion advice and posing tips. The most important thing though, is to have a photographer that you trust to make you look your best, and who will pose you in fun and flattering ways! We’ll meet before our session to go over the session details and get to know each other, so we walk into the shoot with the perfect game plan! There are a few tips, though, to make the whole experience a lot more fun and successful, so dig in to some *real life* tips that you can use and we’ll practice during your session.

ADD COLOUR TO YOUR WARDROBE
The airy white dress is always a senior favourite, and a long black maxi dress is cool and trendy. However, make sure that at least one or two of your (unlimited!) outfit changes are bright and colourful, to add some glam to your senior portraits. Jewel tones translate beautifully on camera, and add visual interest to your pictures.

LET THE MUA DO HER WORK
All my full senior sessions come with an appointment for pro make up application. You can work with the MUA to get the best style for you, and even apply some of it yourself, but the MUA we work with know exactly how to contour and highlight for how the camera “sees” tones and dimensions. You’ll look flawless for closeups, trust! I’ll take care of blemishes in editing, don’t be tempted to go heavy on concealer just to hide flaws.

ADD PERSONAL ITEMS
Along with close up portraits, and emotive shots, we want to mix it up with some more visually interesting pictures of you just as you are. Having a few props along really change the look of the portraits. Imagine yourself on a rooftop playing your violin. Idling in field with your favourite book. Posed with your skateboard in the middle of a busy sidewalk. These props add colour and personalize your gallery.

HAVE A HELPER
You’ll have a lot going on the day of the shoot. Bring someone to help you! Mom, sister, or a favourite aunt can help with wardrobe changes, carry accessories, and keep flyaways tamed. That will free you up to be stress fee and fabulous!

BE INSPIRED, BUT BE YOU
There are some great resources for finding cool senior portrait ideas, like Pinterest and Instagram, but don’t get lost trying to recreate a look that you find inspiring. Incorporate what you love about a certain look, or pose, but in the end these pictures are about YOU.  If you love vintage dresses, wear one and don’t worry about current trends! Embrace your dork, your quirks, your sweet nature, your sass – it’s all about you, baby.

Which Season to Take Senior Portraits? – The Woodlands Senior Outdoor Photographer

Your senior portraits should represent you and your own personal style, and one of the big considerations is when and where to take your senior pictures. What do you picture for your senior portraits? An airy summer sundress in a pretty green park? A cuddly warm sweater and boots, on an urban street? When we meet for your in person consult before the session, we’ll talk about all these details, and find the perfect date, location, and wardrobe for your senior portraits, that will compliment your own personal style!

SUMMER PORTRAITS
Do you love summer clothes, and the sultry heat? Summer here in Texas is HOT but September is a great month for senior pictures if you want to have the last glimpses of the glow of summer in your portraits. The light is heavier and more golden late in the day, making for mellow orange and yellow light. Choose an early or late summer session if you want to capture that summer glow, with the last of the summer flowers.

FALL PORTRAITS
One of the most popular seasons for the wonderful cooler weather, autumnal portraits are unique because of the pretty fall foliage and colourful trees. We have a very short fall season, and these dates are in demand, so it’s best to book this season early!

WINTER PORTRAITS
It’s not a season seniors usually think of for their portraits, but winter has a magic all it’s own. With the colder weather, you’ll be able to wear those snuggly sweaters and scarves that would make you swelter in other seasons. Plus, the tones of winter are beautiful – greys, maroons, pine green, and deep blue are gorgeous to photograph and the air is light and silvery, with gorgeous sunsets and rustic shades of burnt sienna and wheat.

SPRING PORTRAITS
The most popular season of all, for good reason! The weather is warm, the flowers are in bloom, the light has a pretty light golden glow, and you can finally pull out those pretty sundresses, rompers, and off the shoulder shirts that have been shoved in the closet all winter. This is the most sought after season, so you’ll have to book as early as you can if you want senior portraits in the flowers!

Everyone has a different personal style, and when it comes to your senior portraits you want them to represent you as you are!

Top 5 Favorite Senior Poses – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Photographing seniors is always so much fun just for the sheer variety of outfits and poses we can put together! Narrowing down to your favourite shots can be REALLY hard, but I’ve noticed a definite trend in which poses senior clients tend to choose for their gift prints, wall art, and album covers. Here are the top faves, in no particular order!

1) THE CLASSIC
This is *always* a winner, and the type of shot most usually chosen for gifts for family, announcement cards, and wallet prints.

2) THE CASUAL
When it comes to seated shots, this pose ranks high on the fave list! Cool and casual, but still perfectly posed with careful attention paid to limb placement and the tilt of the head. Sitting pretty!

3) THE EMOTIVE
A shot that elicits the “oohs” and “aahs” and “you look so beautiful!” comments. Seniors and moms both love what I call “the eyelash shot”, and it almost always makes it’s way into the album or wall collage.

4) THE WIDE ANGLE
Seated or standing, that one shot where you get to turn on a little attitude shows off that sassy or dramatic side of your personality. Wide angle shots are more cinematic and include more of the landscape, so your pose has to be killer to stand out in that space!

5) THE LOOKAWAY
A magazine type vibe that takes a break from the usual portraits with eye contact and smiles. Wistful, serene, the perfect “un-posed pose”, like you’ve been snapped walking dreamily through the field or by the seaside.
