Senior Picture Poses

It’s your senior year of high school!  You’ve finally made it!  It’s time to celebrate this major milestone with a senior portrait session with your photographer.  Senior pictures are a great way to capture the real you.  No standing in front of a backdrop with a drape or suit and studio lighting.  Let’s get outside, walk around, change outfits, and have a fun session celebrating you!  I love senior sessions because they are always fun.  During the consultation, we get to know each other a bit and can make a plan for the session.  We’ll talk about locations, wardrobe, and props…anything that makes you special.  Once we have a plan, the session can be relaxed and enjoyable for everyone.  Mom usually comes along and can help with wardrobe and props.  I will help guide  you with senior picture poses.  The final result is a gorgeous set of portraits that you can take with you the rest of your life!

Senior Portraits for Antonio

During our consultation, Antonio along with his mom and I made a plan for our session.  We wanted to infuse bits of Antonio’s personality and interests into the session.  So we planned for images with the dogs, his Jeep, and some on the golf course.  My absolute favorite image is the one where he’s got a foot up on the fence and leaning towards the fence.  To me, that image is relaxed and shows the true Antonio.  We had a fantastic session and Antonio ended up with a handsome album with all of his favorite images.  The outside is a distressed Onyx leather with a cameo of that favorite image on the front cover.  Inside, the pages show all of the variety of images with wardrobe and background changes.  What a treasure to look back on when he has a family and kids of his own!

Not sure how formal your headshot should be? Start here. 👇

Your outfit plays a huge role in the story your headshot tells — and choosing the right look helps you show up with clarity and confidence.

Here are 5 levels of formality for men’s headshots and when to use each one:

1️⃣ Very Formal
Suit jacket + button-down shirt + tie
This look builds instant trust and authority.

2️⃣ Semi-formal (No Tie)
Suit jacket + button-down (no tie)
Polished, approachable, and confident.

3️⃣ Business Casual
Button-down shirt, no jacket
Comfortable and true to your everyday brand.

4️⃣ Branded Apparel
Button-down or polo with company logo
Keeps things clean, professional, and consistent — especially for team headshots.

5️⃣ Casual
Fitted t-shirt or polo (no branding)
Still professional — just more relaxed and innovative.

✨ BONUS TIPS:
– Stick to solid colors
– Make sure clothes are clean, pressed & well-fitted
– Avoid loud patterns or busy logos (unless branded)
– Bring a backup shirt or jacket to your session

🎯 The goal? Choose the level that fits your industry, role, and personality — and Tara will help you photograph it perfectly.

Let`s talk about it 👇🏻

Whether it’s your LinkedIn profile, website bio, or social media presence—your photo is often the first impression people get of you.

And if it’s outdated, poorly lit, overly casual, or just not aligned with who you are now… it’s doing more harm than good.

Here’s what a great headshot can do:
✅ Build instant trust with clients
✅ Attract job offers, press, or speaking gigs
✅ Help you show up confidently in a crowded market
✅ Make your personal brand feel polished and professional

It’s more than just a photo—it’s your reputation in pixels.

📸 I create relaxed, guided headshot sessions that reflect your style, your energy, and your goals. Let’s make sure your image is working for you, not against you.

Contact me to book your session or visit the link in my bio to schedule your free consultation.

Your future self will thank you. 👏

Goldfish have longer attention spans than most people online. If your visuals don’t speak fast, they’re not being seen.

And more often than not, it’s your photos doing the talking before you ever say a word.

High-quality, professional visuals do more than “look good.” They ⤵️

✅ Build Trust Instantly

People want to feel like they know you before they work with you. Clear, polished images of you (not stock photography) help potential clients connect with the face behind the business.

✅ Showcase Professionalism

From your website to your Instagram grid, cohesive brand photography tells the world you’re serious, credible, and ready for business.

✅ Create Brand Clarity

What do you want people to feel when they land on your page? Confident? Warm? Innovative? Your visuals should reflect that vibe—because clarity creates confidence.

✅ Set You Apart

In a saturated market, people are buying you as much as your product or service. Brand photography gives you a chance to stand out with personality, story, and style.

If you’re still using a mix of selfies, old photos, or generic images, you might be confusing your audience—or worse, losing them.

Let’s fix that. Let’s create visuals that stop the scroll and start the connection.
