How to Take Senior Pictures

High school senior portrait sessions are tons of fun!  There’s no one right way on how to take senior pictures.  At Tara Flannery Photography, we will be with you every step of the way to create a unique and fantastic session tailored just for you!  First, we first meet for a consultation to get to know each other.  We talk about wardrobe and location and anything you have in mind for the session.  It’s so nice to meet ahead of time so that when we get to the session day, we already have that familiarity and can start photographing right away!  On session day, it’s just having fun and playing with wardrobe, fun photo spots, poses, and expressions.  Then, we will meet together to review all of the images together and select the very best ones for your order.  Finally, the day that you waited for is here: product and digital photo delivery!  Now you can share away on social media and your parents can fill that frame and hang your brand new images on the wall, so exciting!

Senior Portraits with Allison

My senior portrait session with Allison was a blast!  Her mom was there to help with wardrobe changes and to help keep an eye on that gorgeous hair!  My daughter, Leah, was there too to help with lighting so it was an all-girl affair.  We started with a location with lots of brick and rusted iron.  Her white dress was the perfect compliment to this spot.  Then we moved to another location with brick and her pink shirt and jeans and hair pulled half way back.  I love that Allison changed up her hairstyle along with her outfits.  We ended the session with her navy top and brown skort.  My favorite image is Allison’s closeup with the serious expression, her hair in a messy bun on top.  Gorgeous!!  Although there’s no rule book on how to take senior pictures, Allison can definitely point the way towards a fantastic session!

Let me walk you through a corporate event headshot session 👇🏻

I set up a professional headshot station right at your event—guests funnel in and out in minutes, and here`s the magic:

✨ Quick, guided posing (I`ll tell you exactly what to do—no awkward guessing)
✨ Instant proof gallery so you can choose your favorite on the spot
✨ Polished, professional edits delivered fast
✨ Cohesive headshots for the whole team (perfect for company websites, LinkedIn, you name it)

The best part? You don`t have to schedule separate sessions, travel anywhere, or stress about what to wear. You show up, I guide you through it, and you leave with a headshot that actually represents you well.

No stiff corporate vibes. No feeling lost in front of the camera. Just efficient, professional, and dare I say... kinda fun? 😄

Corporate event headshots = convenience + quality + personality. If your company is planning an event and wants to give your team this experience, let`s talk.

Here`s the truth 👇🏻

Your headshot has an expiration date. ⏰

If your current headshot is more than three years old, it`s time for a refresh.

When someone looks you up before a meeting or collaboration, they`re forming their first impression. If your headshot doesn`t match who shows up on the Zoom call, it creates an immediate disconnect.

Your headshot should reflect who you are RIGHT NOW. Your current energy. Your current confidence. Your current professional presence.

✨ THE 3-YEAR RULE:
Update your headshot every 2-3 years, or sooner if you`ve had a significant change in appearance, role, or brand positioning.

💡 PRO TIP:
If you`re hesitant because you don`t love being photographed, that`s exactly why the right photographer matters. Your session should feel empowering, not vulnerable.

You are worthy of being seen exactly as you are right now. Let`s create headshots that feel authentic and work hard for your business.

Here`s the truth—these three mistakes are quietly killing your credibility:

1️⃣ Inconsistent visuals across platforms

LinkedIn headshot ≠ Instagram profile ≠ Website photo

This creates confusion and distrust. Your audience needs to recognize YOU instantly, everywhere.

2️⃣ Outdated or low-quality photos

That 2019 selfie or grainy event photo? Not helping.

Professional imagery signals you take your business seriously—so clients can trust you with theirs.

3️⃣ Hiding behind logos or stock photos

People connect with PEOPLE, not faceless brands.

If they can`t see the human behind the business, they`re scrolling past.

✨ The good news? All of this is fixable.

Investing in professional branding photography isn`t just about pretty pictures—it`s about building trust and credibility that converts.

Ready to elevate your brand`s visual presence? Let`s create imagery that actually works for your business. 💪🏼
