Senior Sessions: Capturing You Doing What You Love // black and white

Hey there, Seniors!

Your senior year is a milestone worth celebrating, and there's no better way to do that than with a portrait session that truly reflects who you are. Let's forget about the traditional, stiff poses and instead focus on capturing you in your element—doing what you love. Whether it's sports, music, art, or just hanging out at your favorite spot, these photos should showcase your passions and personality.

Senior portraits should be a reflection of your interests and the things that make you unique. Love playing guitar? Let's get some shots of you strumming your favorite tunes. Are you a soccer star? We'll capture you on the field, doing what you do best. Whatever your passion, we’ll make sure it shines through in your photos.

The best senior portraits happen when you're genuinely engaged in something you love. This isn't about posing for the camera; it's about capturing those candid moments when you're in your zone. Whether it's the concentration on your face while painting, the joy in your eyes when you're playing basketball, or the relaxed vibe of you chilling at your favorite coffee shop, we want to capture the real you.

Seattle has so many amazing places that can serve as the perfect backdrop for your senior session. Do you love the great outdoors? Discovery Park offers stunning scenery for nature lovers. More of an urban explorer? Pioneer Square or the streets of Capitol Hill might be just your vibe. Or perhaps Alki Beach is where you find your peace. We'll choose locations that feel like home to you.

Your outfit should reflect your style and be comfortable for whatever activity we’re capturing. If you're a dancer, bring your dance attire. If you're a bookworm, your favorite cozy sweater might be perfect. The key is to wear something that makes you feel confident and represents who you are.

Think of your senior session as a fun day out, doing what you love with a friend who's there to document it. We'll hang out, talk about your interests, and I'll capture those moments when you're truly yourself. This relaxed approach ensures that the photos are natural and genuinely reflect your personality.

Your senior year is a significant chapter in your life, and your portraits should tell your story. These photos aren't just for you; they're for your family and friends to look back on and remember who you were at this pivotal time. More importantly, they're a way for you to preserve memories of your high school years and the passions that defined them.

As you prepare to move on to the next exciting chapter of your life, your senior portraits will serve as a beautiful reminder of where you came from and who you were. They're not just pictures; they're a celebration of your journey, your passions, and your future.
