Senior FAQ

Once we receive your inquiry, we will reach out to find a time to schedule a call to explain our Perfect Portrait Process to you. In order to book your session, a signed agreement and session fee will need to be placed and then the next step is scheduling your consultation where we will plan out your session themes, locations, outfit ideas, best ways to use your photos around your home and more.

We will set your Portrait Session date and you will receive up to a 1.5 hour session and up to two locations. The session is fully guided, so don't feel like you need to come up with your own poses.

After your Portrait Session we will schedule your Reveal Session where you will come back to the studio to see the photos from your session for the first time. During your Reveal Session, we will guide you through your portrait order to find exactly what works the best for you and give you the best opportunity to preserve your favorite memories from your session!

Honestly, it can be anywhere you want! We have done sessions as close as right outside of the studio, in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Downtown Akron, Downtown Cleveland and even as far away as Disney World. We like to ask you - what best describes your personality? From there we can come up with a perfect concept for your session! 

Maybe you're into music, sports, theater, or video games. We've got ideas for anything that you're into!

Of course! We're happy to attempt to closely re-create your ideas! We will be sure to do those and then some.

Often, we'll find a nearby bathroom where you can run inside and change before our next location, but on the chance that it's closed or we aren't near one I carry a pop up changing tent with me so you can change in privacy!

Whoever you're most comfortable with! A parent is required to be present during your session if you're under the age of 18. If your parent cannot attend your session and you're under the age of 18, I will need your parent to sign a letter of consent that gives their permission to allow us to photograph your session without one of them in attendance and who they will be sending as a guardian in their absence.

If you want to have your hair and make up professionally done, I work with some very talented hair and make up artists on a regular basis! If you plan to do your own hair and make up for your senior session, I recommend going a little heavier on eye make up than normal so it will stand out in the photos! Hair choice is up to you! Straight, curly? What's your style?

We will give you some ideas during your consultation, but overall dress like who you are! Don't like suits? Don't wear one! Your senior photos should show who you are right now, so feel free to dress however you'd like. In my opinion photos typically look best when you wear solid colors, layers, and accessories!
