Prepare for Your Senior Photography Shoot with Anne Thatcher

Tips on Making the Best of Your Senior Photography Session

1. Choose the Right Location

Pick a location that reflects your personality and interests. Whether it's a park, urban setting, or your school, make sure it represents who you are.

2. Plan Your Outfits

Wear outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable. Bring multiple options to give variety to your photos. Don’t forget to accessorize!

3. Time of Day Matters

Golden hour, which occurs shortly after sunrise or before sunset, provides beautiful lighting. Schedule your session during this time for the best results.

4. Communicate with Your Photographer

Discuss your ideas, preferences, and any specific poses you have in mind with your photographer ahead of time.

5. Practice Posing

Try practicing poses in front of a mirror. Finding your best angles can boost your confidence during the session.

6. Bring Props

Incorporate props that showcase your hobbies or passions, such as sports equipment, instruments, or books.

7. Stay Relaxed

Take deep breaths and remember that the goal is to have fun. The more relaxed you are, the more natural your photos will look.

8. Bring a Friend or Family Member

Having someone you trust along can help you feel more at ease and can also assist in carrying your outfits and props.

9. Experiment with Different Poses

Don’t be afraid to try various poses and expressions. This can lead to some unique and genuine shots.

10. Trust Your Photographer

Trusting your photographer’s expertise is key. They know how to capture you in the best light, so be open to their suggestions.

Marketing & Design

Okay, your cool blog is done. Now all that’s left is to publish and get readers. Think of blogging as part of your marketing strategy – because it really is.

Blogs help people find you through search engines. But you can also share your blogs on social media platforms to get people ooh-ing and ahh-ing over your work on your website. The goal is to show them around the place, dazzle them with your work, and hopefully they’ll end up booking their own sessions – or signing up for updates! Sharing is easy. Just click “Share” and post to the social media of your choice. Done and done.

Our last notes are about design. Both for your overall blog layout and for each post.

People are visual creatures... but you know that already. A beautiful blog will encourage people to stay & read more! Your blog comes with a bunch of layout options so you can create a gorgeous experience for your readers.
If you write a longer article, try to break up the words with images peppered throughout. Photos make for a more enjoyable read!
If you have extra widgets, you can easily embed them in the footer or sidebar of your blog. Putting in a subscription form, for instance, is a great idea to keep people hooked on reading your blog!

That’s about it! You now know everything you need to make a great blog for your business! Good luck, champ. I know you’ve got this. But if you ever have any questions, drop us a line, and we’ll be glad to help!

Happy blogging!

Xoxo,
