Top 5 Reasons to Choose a Studio for your Senior Photos

While outdoor photos are a standard in beautiful Colorado, doing some of your photos in-studio can add a great variety to your portfolio. Studio sessions today are very different than the stiff, stuffy portraits that used to happen in studio photography. Seniors have many more options than just sitting in a chair in front of a white backdrop.

When you have your senior photos taken at my studio, you'll have access to different looks for your photos. One outdoor location can only give you so much variety. But add in studio photos, you can have your photos taken in front of different backdrops and in different outfits. This way, you'll have a better selection of photos to choose from when it comes time to pick your favorites. What's more, studios often provide props for all sorts of fun photo ideas! These items make it easy to really show off who you are and what makes you unique.

Many people are concerned about studio portraits looking too posed and unnatural, but the truth is that with professional lighting and creativity, you can get stunning results that look natural or are a fun, creative way to add to your senior photo options. Here are the top five reasons to choose a studio for one location of your senior photos:

1. You'll get unique, one-of-a-kind photos that capture your personality. The beauty of a studio setting is that it takes away any distractions from your surroundings so all you'll see in your images are you and what's important - your expressions, poses and personality.

2. Professional lighting. The right lighting can make a big difference in how your photos turn out. With professional studio lighting, you can be sure your photos will look their best. The lighting and setting will be perfect, ensuring that you look your best.

3. A controlled environment with no wind or weather. You have more control over the environment so you won't have to worry about your hair or makeup getting messed up by the wind or rain. You'll also be able to take photos inside on days that are too cloudy, rainy, hot or snowy (it IS Colorado after all; anything is possible) outside!

4. I offer unique poses and a wide range of backgrounds. Want simple background so you really stand out? I can do that. Want a bold sports portrait with stadium lighting backdrop? I can do that, too! I will work with you to accomplish a look that you want.

And finally, 5. Variety when paired with an outdoor location. Some senior photos lend themselves best to your yearbook photo while others are best printed and hung on a wall. Still others make great family gifts. With a studio and outdoor session combined, you will have all the options you need and want.

As one of the most important parts of your senior year, it's important that you feel confident when picking out a photographer! I want to offer my clients a unique photo-shoot experience with personalized attention from start to finish. I will help guide you through the process so that you'll walk away feeling great about how everything turned out.
