Senior Minis – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

The full pomp and circumstance for senior portraits is fun and an amazing experience…but let’s face it, it’s not for everyone. Senior boys, and many girls as well, don’t need a full 2.5 hour session, with 50+ images, and lots of prints and products. So what are some benefits of a mini session?

WEEKDAY SESSIONS
If you have a very busy schedule, and don’t have a weekend free I offer weekday mini sessions during peak seasons. 

YOU’RE JUST NOT INTO PHOTOSHOOTS
Yeah, it’s not for everyone! Not everyone is a selfie fan, filling their Insta with pictures. But your mom begs for some great photos of you as keepsakes, and your grandma is really looking forward to her 8×10 for her wall. You gotta do it, so let’s make it as painless as possible!

JUST THE DIGITALS, PLEASE
My full sessions come with tons of great perks, like mobile apps, print credits, and fun products for your walls. Does everyone need that? Not always. The minis give you some amazing digital pictures, without all the extras that are not on your radar.

COST EFFECTIVE
It’s a huge consideration, the cost of your senior portraits. These investments are worth it for quality photographs and keepsakes. But my business recognizes that not everyone wants to spend a lot on senior pictures with prom, graduation, and university around the corner. Enter the mini session! A cost effective way to get some amazing Insta worthy shots of you, without the price tag.

I offer TWO mini sessions – the classic digital only and the upgrade, that also includes print credits so grandma can get her 8×10! Click here to check out what I offer seniors, with two full session and two mini session senior portrait options!

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.
