Senior photos are more than showing up with my camera and just taking photos of my seniors. It’s about capturing the essence of an unforgettable chapter in life. It’s more than just a photo session; it’s a celebration of achievements, dreams, and the boundless future ahead.

Let’s dive into some of the most frequently asked questions around the senior photography experience I offer!

The next step is to meet in person at a senior photo consultation. You can book time directly on my calendar here!

What is your image turnaround time?

Within one week, my clients come back to the Stay Wild Studios to pick their favorite images for final edits. Final edits usually take me one week.

How do you deliver final images?

Final images are delivered via online gallery, available for 60 days. Digital files can be downloaded directly and the link can be shared with friends and family. The gallery also includes a print release so you can print and create products as you wish. I also provide a USB will all final images on it.

Do you offer a payment plan?

There is a built in payment plan. $500 holds your session date and time. An additional $500 (or the balance for the basic collection) is due one week before your session. You will also pay the hair and makeup artists directly on the day of your shoot. The remaining balance is due before final images are released.

Payment plans are available upon request.

Can you help me pick out locations?

During the senior photo consultation, we spend a lot of time talking about locations. I show you examples of what is out there. I’m also constantly looking for new locations. We discuss what you like at the consultation and once you finalize your outfits, we finalize locations. There are a lot of discussions around locations.

What’s it like at a senior photo session?

We have so much fun! We usually spend around 30 minutes at one location. When we arrive, my assistant sets up the changing tent so you can change. I get my gear ready while you’re changing. We start playing music and we discuss the location and where we are going to start shooting. I give you a mix of poses and prompts while I’m shooting. We move a lot and there is a lot of discussion. My assistant is holding the reflector and capturing BTS photos and video. Once we’re done at one location we head to the next location and repeat!
