Senior Portrait Article Notes

• use lighting effects/unusual angles to make shots more interesting
• getting to know the person and their personality is even more important when taking senior pictures, you want to show who they are through the photo
• have the model bring their own props/change of clothes/have a location choice
• take photos who they envision them
• seniors tend to want edgy, editorial, magazine looking shots
• while you want to please the teenager, you also want to please the family, parents, grandparents... so don't take their wants too far
• don't go traditional, make it interesting
