Suggestions For Senior Portraits
Print this page without images

Please be on time! We are reserving 45 minutes for your graduation session. Usually there will be another appointment starting at the end of your 45 minutes so if you are late, your sitting will not be the full 45 minutes. Our images are all copyrighted and may not be copied for any reason. If you need to print your own prints, you may pay a $500 sitting fee and receive 10 colorbalanced and retouched images on a CD, or for $250 sitting fee you can get all images shot, not colorbalanced or retouched.

General Info: Come in your first outfit, or come early to change All shots shown on the seniors page were shot at our studio. Saturdays are very full with families and weddings so we prefer to photograph seniors Monday through Friday. If you need a Saturday appointment, there is a $30 fee.

Clothing: You may bring up to 3 outfits. We suggest casual, formal and a special interest outfit such as a uniform or dance outfit. Please dress head to toe in each outfit.

Props: You may bring in any props such as musical instruments, sporting equipment, or pets. We've seen snowboards, snakes, cars and horses!

Cap n Gown:
We have the cap, gown and tassels for most schools.
Boys, please bring a white shirt and tie to match your gown, it will show!
Please know the color you are to wear, sometimes schools switch the color girls wear and the color the boys wear.

Hair cuts:
Please get your hair cut at least a week before your sitting to avoid a whitewall like our son Ryan!

Powder: Guys and Girls should use a little face powder to avoid shine, there is some in the dressing rooms. Face shine makes you look heavier.

Hair spray: please use hair spray to control flyaway hairs and keep your hair in place in the wind.

Eye Glasses:
Eye glass lenses can cause distortion and glare.
We suggest you leave them off for the picture if you don't normally wear them every day. Our photographers are all trained to remove lenses to give you a more natural look. If we cannot remove your lenses, we charge $5 per pair per pose to remove the glare. We cannot always get the eyes to look exactly correct. We do not fix distortion.

Juan Diego Students please pick up the collar shown here at your school.

Viewing your portraits: You will be able to view your appointment right after your sitting if your parent comes with you. You will have a 1 hour projection. If you need more time or a second viewing, we charge $10. We do not print proofs. All our images are copyrighted and may not be copied for any reason.
