Q1When should we book senior pictures?
Most seniors book the summer before or the fall of senior year, when the leaves and the light are at their best. Spring and winter studio sessions are beautiful too. Fall is our busiest season, so reach out as early as you can.
Q2Where do senior sessions happen?
Anywhere that feels like you. Our Springfield studio for dramatic lighting and creative sets, downtown spots like the Capitol, parks and fields around Central Illinois, or the place you love most: your field, your stage, your farm or your favorite hangout.
Q3How many outfits should I bring?
Most seniors bring two to four. Pick a mix: something dressy, something casual and something that shows off your passion, like a jersey, uniform or band shirt. We'll plan your outfits together before session day.
Q4Can I bring my pet, my instrument or my sports gear?
Yes, please! Dogs, guitars, drums, jerseys, cars, trucks and best friends have all made it into our sessions. Bring whatever tells your story.
Q5Do you help with hair and makeup?
Yes. Jessica helps with styling and touch-ups on session day, and you can ask about full hair and makeup with her when you book.
Q6Do you edit the photos?
Every final image is edited by me personally. I clean up the little things like stray hairs, blemishes and clothing wrinkles so you look like you on your best day.
Q7What is the Senior Model Ambassador program?
SMA is our program for select juniors and seniors: themed group shoots, new friends and exclusive sessions throughout the year. Learn about SMA and SMA+.
