Senior Portrait Tips for Guys

Senior portrait sessions are a lot of fun!  For guys, a laid-back and fun session can be easy with a few tips!

  1. Plan wardrobe ahead of time and make sure everything fits, down to the shoes.  I like to start with a more formal look and move to more casual.  That way, the formal stuff can be put away after we get those few fantastic dressy shots.
  2. Incorporate something into the session that makes you, you.  Whether it’s something that you wear all the time or a hobby, sport, or instrument, bring it to the session.  This makes it personal and totally represent you.
  3. Relax and enjoy the session.  The more you relax and have fun with it, the better the images.  Then you can post all of those amazing images on social media.

Session with Zachary

My session with Zachary was fantastic.  We started with a formal look with khakis and blazer.  I loved this look and he rocked it with that flash of a smile. Next, he changed into his ROTC shirt.  He is a leader in the group at school and is proud of his involvement in this group.  And I like the way the khakis and dark green shirt blended beautifully with the background.  At the end, he changed one last time into his favorite hoodie that he wears just about every day, Mom said.  So, it’s truly him…the Buffalo Bills sweatshirt.  We couldn’t finish the session without a few images with his car too…which Dad absolutely adored!  All my best Zachary in whatever life holds for you next.

Here’s the truth…

People decide if they want to work with you in seconds - and your visuals do the talking.

If you’re not attracting the right clients, take a look at your branding:

✔️ If your photos don’t reflect your brand, then potential clients won’t see your value.

✔️ If your online imagery is inconsistent, then it can be hard to build trust.

✔️ If you’re not showing yourself in your content, then clients miss the chance to connect with you.

✨ The good news? I can fix all of that.

With a personalized branding session, we’ll create a collection of images that reflect your personality, your professionalism, and your purpose—so the right clients see you and say yes.

I’m the photographer who’s there for your senior year glow-up, your first professional headshot, your dream business branding, and your family’s most meaningful milestones.

When we grow together, magic happens. Here’s why ⬇️

🤍 Real Comfort = Real Confidence
No awkward intros or guessing games—just ease. You already know how I work, and I know how to bring out your natural, authentic energy on camera.

🎯 Sessions That Evolve With You
Prom? Graduation? First job? New business? Expanding family? Each session is tailored to the season you’re in—with intentional visuals that match your moment.

📸 Consistency You Can See
No more jumping between styles or trying to "explain your vibe" every time you book someone new. We’ll create a cohesive visual story that feels like YOU, not just a trend.

🧠 I Know Your Vibe (and Your Best Side)
Once we’ve worked together, I already know the little things that make a big difference—your best angles, what makes you laugh, and how to make you feel confident in front of the lens.

✨ Working with a lifetime photographer means your photos won’t just look good…
They’ll mean something.

So whether you’re a senior, a professional, a parent, or all three—let’s grow together. 💫

Let’s be real—dating is already tough.

Your profile photos shouldn’t be what’s holding you back.

Here’s how personal branding photos can actually help you find your match:

✅ First Impressions Matter
In dating apps, your photo is everything. Low-quality, outdated, or awkward photos can get you passed over—before they even read your bio.

✅ You’ll Get More Views & Messages
Professional lighting, flattering angles, and natural poses = more swipes, more engagement, more chances to connect.

✅ Capture the Best Version of You
I’ll guide you through a session that feels relaxed, fun, and confident—no forced smiles or stiff poses. Just you, at your best.

✅ It’s an Investment in Yourself
You’d update your LinkedIn headshot, right? This is your personal life. A great profile photo says you care about how you show up—and that confidence is attractive.

✅ Better Photos = Better Matches
No more blurry bathroom selfies. A curated, professional look sets the tone for real connection.

This is your sign to stop relying on selfies and start showing up as the confident, attractive, amazing human you are.

📲 Contact Me to book your personal branding session—I’ll help you make an unforgettable first impression.

Let’s talk about what not to bring to your branding session…

As a professional photographer, I’m here to guide you through the entire process—but there are a few things I hope we can leave behind when it’s time to shoot.

🚫 1. Unplanned Outfits
Winging it with wardrobe almost always leads to stress or second-guessing. During your consultation, we’ll talk through outfit options, what photographs well, and how to reflect your brand’s vibe. Want a little extra help? I can connect you with one of my go-to wardrobe stylists to make the process effortless.

🚫 2. No Vision or Direction
You don’t have to show up with a Pinterest board—but having clarity around your brand message is key. That’s why I help you define your vision during our planning call so we can create images that actually work for your business.

🚫 3. A Rushed or Drained Mindset
Your session is an investment in you. So let’s make space for it. Give yourself time to rest, hydrate, and breathe beforehand—you’ll look and feel more confident (and it shows in your photos).

✨ The best part?
I walk you through all of this in your consultation. We’ll cover wardrobe, prep tips, props, posing, and everything you need to show up feeling calm, confident, and fully aligned with your brand.

Ready to create brand photos that look like you and work like magic?
