What to wear for your senior session?
What to wear for your senior session? Sessions are a big deal down in the South. So much so that some photographers solely do only senior portraits. Up in the Northeast, the trend is for a Senior Portrait to be the classic studio cap and gown. Yawn. Your senior year is such a special time in your life. You are at a point in your life where everything is fair game and life is filled with so many choices! Where to go for college? What major do you want to focus on? Should you travel abroad this summer? There are so many freedoms and opportunities awaiting you.
Capturing you at this joyous time in your life will be life treasures for many! Especially those moms and dads out there who have poured their whole selves into raising you! Once the decision is made to do your session, the next thing in your mind in what to wear???
I like to give up to three outfit choices. A sport that you want to remember or that has been such an intreval part in your life is worth capturing. But what to pick next??
For girls, a dress is a go to pick. I love the site, Rent the Runway. It has great choices at a fraction of the cost of the dress! Pair it with a fringe boot if you want an urban feel or sandals if you are heading to the beach.
Another choice for ladies would be jeans with a dressy top. You can be more casual in your dress but don’t forget about accessories to add your personal touches. For the boys, don’t pick now as the time for sweats. Push yourself to look at the jeans with a button down shirt and vest as a dressy option without needing a suit! KEY ALERT: The key to outfit choices is finding something you love yourself in. If you feel good, then your personality will shine through on your images.
Smile and enjoy these memories! You only go through it once!

I love meeting up with other photographers to do a styled shoot. It is always fun to be able to meet new vendors and try new things. We met up at Willow Creek Winery in Cape May, New Jersey. Gypsea Photo Booth provided the van and we had models dressed in the Retro vintage apparel to channel our inner hippies. I love adding their personal style an hobbies like music into a photo shoot for kids, teens and seniors. They are so free spirited and fun to be around.
