Sarah’s Senior Pics

Konny’s Senior Pics

Here’s some images I pulled from three of my favorite shoots this summer.

This photo shoot took advantage of my iStock photography discount.  This means that you can purchases these images online here.  Please be mindful that while these images are royalty free, they are not restriction free, so read the fine print.

I tried a few new locations for this shoot, as many photographers have begun to discover my other locations.  These are little more edgy than my typical Senior Shots, but still in line with current trends.

That session can be contrasted with these images which are more experimental.  I would not include images like the following in a session, unless explicitly asked.

Finally, here was a fun child photo shoot.  I love it when parents ask me to take photos of their children that allow to bring out their personalities.  Here’s the result:

And, the other chose to take advantage of the iStock discount.  So here are some of the iStock files from that shoot:

This particular photoshoot was a senior photo session and an engagement photo session all in one.  I had a ton of fun!  Chris and Ronae were great and I wish them all the happiness in the future!

The challenge came from Eagle’s Wings Air’s unique business model.  They provide travel service for funeral service.  They work with funeral directors to transport the deceased from places like Florida to their hometown for burial.  They provide a unique niche in the market, as they are the only company anywhere that specializes in this service.

The chosen location for the shoot was D.O. McCombs due to the companies’ close affiliation.  Frank, the owner in need of the head shots, wanted to highlight their involvement with the airline industries.  Thus, we had an executive, a plane, and a funeral home.

Since, most of the advertising would be aimed at funeral directors and placed in industry publications, Eagle’s Wings Air wanted to highlight the plane, as that’s what sets them apart.  The challenge was providing the model plane as much prominence as the executive himself.

Here are a few images from the shoot:

The weather was still rather cold so we went to a local coffee shop and to the downtown library.  To be honest, I often feel limited when doing indoor shoots, but both locations offered a lot of interesting backgrounds and flare.

Here are a few that I picked out from that shoot…

The thing is, If you don’t get them done in the summer or fall, by the time winter rolls around, you’ve limited your options to indoor portraits.  This is not necessarily a bad thing, but if you want the freedom of outdoor shots, you do need to think about the weather.  By the time weather warms up again in the Spring, you’ve limited the time you have to make use out of your photos.  In April and May, you’ll be preparing for graduation and everything that entails.  This is not to say that you can’t hand your pictures out around this time, but after your friends have been handing them out all year, you’ll feel a little behind the curve.

So, take it from someone who photographs seniors year round.  Get them done now.  You won’t regret it.
