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!

His headshot made him more money… and here’s why 👇🏼

When my videographer finally swapped his profile photo for the professional headshot I took, something changed.

✅ More responses to cold DMs
✅ Better leads
✅ Real revenue growth

All from one simple update.

It’s not magic — it’s psychology.

🤝 People do business with people.

They want to see the face behind the brand, connect with a real human, and feel like they can trust who they’re hiring or buying from.

Your headshot is often the first impression you make online. Make sure it actually represents the real you — confident, approachable, and ready for the opportunities you want to attract.

These 5 photos will completely transform your real estate brand 👇🏼

Whether you’re a solo agent building a personal brand or a growing team trying to stand out in a crowded market—your photos matter.

Because real estate is personal. People want to see who they’re working with and feel like they can trust you.

Here are 5 must-have brand photos I recommend for every real estate professional:

📸 Professional Team or Solo Portraits
Polished but approachable. Whether it’s a team shot or a solo headshot, these are the foundation of your brand.

📸 Cohesive Headshots
A unified look builds brand recognition and creates a stronger first impression—especially across platforms.

📸 Lifestyle Images
Show yourself (or your team) in action: walking a property, chatting with clients, reviewing listings. These help clients picture the experience of working with you.

📸 Detail Shots
From signage to coffee cups and closing folders, detail shots add depth and personality to your brand story.

📸 On-Location Photos
Highlight your market and your vibe—whether it’s downtown, the suburbs, or somewhere in between.

✨ Ready to level up your real estate brand? Contact me and let’s create images that actually work for your business.

Let’s be real—getting your photo taken can feel super awkward.
You’re standing in front of a camera, trying to look natural… and it doesn’t always come naturally. That’s where I come in.

My goal isn’t just to take a great headshot—it’s to make sure you feel great while we’re doing it.

🗣 I keep things casual and conversational so you’re not stuck in your head.
🙌🏼 I give real-time encouragement to help you feel supported and at ease.
📲 And I stream your images to an iPad so you can see exactly how things are going—and speak up if something feels off.

Because the best photos don’t happen when you’re perfectly posed.
They happen when you’re relaxed, confident, and feel like yourself.
