I know. Summer just got here. The last thing you're thinking about is school, and with that senior portraits. But there are HUGE benefits to getting those senior portraits done during the summer months!!


Top 5 reasons to have your senior session done in the Summer:

2. The days are long. We're not constrained to the hours between 9 and 4. We can shoot well into 7PM and as early as 6:30AM! Even if you have a summer job, meeting outside your hours is totally doable.

3. Yearbook photo deadlines. If you're school allows outside photos in the yearbook, this is a massive plus to having summer pictures done. Deadlines sneak up on you, and if you want to use a personalized photo that shows off who you are, you need to have it ready to go come fall!

4. Summer colors make for beautiful backdrops. Whether it's a simple grassy field, colorful garden or even the glowing summer sunset against an urban sprawl, summer colors shine in photos. Not to mention you won't risk freezing your butt off like you might in January.
