SARAH'S
SESSION TIPS
for how to get the most out of your photoshoot

OUTFIT(S):
-
All sessions include a style consultation where we will discuss colors, outfits, props, and desired looks.
-
Clothes and shoes should be comfortable and appropriate to the occasion being photographed.
LOCATION(S):
-
For most sessions, the location is your choice. If you love a particular park or area on campus, make sure to let me know!
-
If you are graduating from college, it is recommended to take photos on your school's campus or off-campus streets/"downtown".
-
A list of location ideas is provided below!
POSING:
-
A little camera-shy or not used to it? Check out Pinterest for pose ideas but don't sweat it!
-
Some recommended searches: "senior pictures," "couples photography," "graduation pictures," etc.​
-
-
Feel free to tell me pose ideas you have thought of and know that you want to capture!
WORKING WITH CHILDREN:
-
I always make sure to prioritize child's comfort and energy levels when taking photos. Every child has a different reaction to being in front of a camera, especially if it is their first time!
-
Depending on the child's age, I recommend bringing a snack or toy.
-
I typically bring a wagon when terrain allows to carry any extra supplies or props, which clients are welcome to use.
