What to wear for senior portraits

Every senior has his or her own style.  It’s that time in life when you’re figuring out who you are and wardrobe selection is personal and different for everyone!  It’s so important to feel good in your own skin and in the clothes that you wear, especially for your senior portraits.  I like to chat with my seniors before a session and get to know them and their style a bit.  Would your senior never be caught in something formal?  No problem.  We will start the session in the most formal thing that they will wear.  That could be slacks and a polo for guys or a romper for girls.  I’m happy if the clothing is chosen by the senior and they feel good in it.  Then, we move on to more and more casual clothing.  We usually end the session in jeans and a t-shirt because let’s face it, that’s what they wear most of the time.  And that’s what I would wear too if I could get away with it 🙂  When choosing clothing for the session, keep patterns to a minimum and rely mostly on solid colors.  Choose pieces that you love.  Texture and layers are great!

A session with Alissa

Alissa chose a gorgeous white short dress to start off her senior session.  I loved the lace and detail and the length of the dress made it youthful and fun!  She looked amazing in this dress.  Then she changed into another dress in a reddish color with a jean jacket on top.  It was so cute and fun and the color was fantastic, especially given the urban scenes in the background.  What is your senior’s style and how will the clothing help reflect their personality?  I’d love to chat about that!

Senior sessions with moms and sons are always… an experience 😂

A little back-and-forth, a few eye rolls, and somehow we still end up with photos everyone loves.

Honestly, those in-between moments are usually the best part.

📩 DM me if you’ve been putting off senior photos—there’s still time.

Senior photos shouldn’t feel random… they should feel like you. 👇🏻

Before every session, we talk through a few key things to make sure your photos actually reflect this moment in your life:

✅ Location — what kind of vibe fits you? (nature, city, something more edgy?)
✅ Wardrobe — casual, polished, cap & gown, college tee… we plan it out
✅ Hobbies & interests — the things you love right now that you’ll want to remember later

Because the goal isn’t just to take photos…
it’s to capture who you are right now before everything changes. 🎓

📩 If you’re planning senior photos, let’s start with a consultation and build something intentional.

Cap and gown season is here 🎓

If you didn’t get senior photos done earlier, this is your moment—professional cap & gown photos and college tee shots are the perfect way to wrap up senior year.

And now that decisions are made, it’s the best time to capture where they’re headed next.

📩 Spots are limited—click the link in my bio or DM me to book a last-minute session.

And for Class of 2027 parents… it’s not too early to start thinking ahead 👀
Some yearbook deadlines come faster than you expect, and these photos make the perfect addition to senior pages.
