Is
your Senior Session coming up? Check out our
tips for a great session.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I bring my mom
or dad to my session?
• We require
that you bring at least one parent.
A parent is a valuable assistant for you during the photo shoot; they
can help with clothes, props, hair, etc.. No
parent = no photos, so remember to bring the "parental unit"!
Can I bring a friend
to my shoot?
• Yes, in fact we have
special deals if your friend wants pictures too! See
pricing. You can still bring them along even if they don't
want senior pictures. Friends often bring out the best smiles!
How many outfit
changes can I have?
• It's your time, you decide. We recommend wearing versatile
pants/skirts that can go with 2-3 tops and possibly a jacket. This cuts
down on wasted time changing and gives you more time for photos!
Does time for outfit
changes count toward my session time?
• Yes, time for clothing changes counts as part of your session time,
so plan your outfits ahead of time and have your clothes ready. We're
not going to be checking our watch every 2 minutes, but don't expect an
extra half hour. (Remember that it is sometimes difficult to change in
public places.)
Does travel time for
multiple locations count toward my session time?
•
We allow 15 minutes for travel time. Any travel time beyond the 15
minutes counts toward your session time. Most of the time we can find
suitable locations that are relatively close to each other; this keeps
travel time to a minimum and have plenty of time for pictures.
How
do I order my pictures?
• Those that really care about their senior pictures usually
schedule a complimentary viewing & ordering session. During the session,
you get to see your images "big"! We project the images on the
wall...it's like seeing your pictures on a large widescreen tv. During
the ordering session, we narrow down your favorite images, offer our
professional advice on various crops, sizes, color effects, borders,
etc. You can also see the various photo products we offer, like our
popular canvas gallery wraps, portfolios, and more. It's really a fun,
casual, low-pressure time to select just the right images for you!
How soon will I be
able to see my proofs online?
• Approximately 3-5 business days after your session, depending on
how busy we are. The online gallery is a great way to preview your
images before coming in for your complimentary viewing & ordering
session.
What does an online
proof gallery look like?
• Take a look at one of our sample online galleries
here.
If you choose to forego the complimentary viewing & ordering session,
you and your friends and family can order directly from the online
gallery.
How many images will
I have to choose from?
• About 30-40 for each hour of your session (i.e., a 2-hour session
would have about 60-80).
Are your wallets
die-cut?
• Yes, they are 2.5" x 3.5" with rounded corners.
Why does cropping the
image to an certain size cut off part of the picture?
