6 Simple Tips to Save for a Picture-Perfect Senior Session

You’ve finally booked your senior session. Yes, the hard part is done, but this doesn’t mean you should procrastinate when it comes to planning the rest of your shoot. By taking care of a few basics ahead of time, you can look forward to a memorable, stress-free time in front of the camera.

Here are the tips you need to save.

1. Get inspired. Your shoot is going to need a theme. It’s this theme that will inspire your outfit, location, and any props that you might use. It could even influence how you pose for your photos. Don’t look for ideas a day or two before your shoot. Get it out of the way earlier. 
2. Take care of your skin. When your skin looks good, you’re automatically going to feel more confident. In the weeks leading up to your senior shoot, make a point of drinking more water and remember to leave any blemishes alone. 
3. Book your other appointments. If you are planning to get someone to do your hair and makeup, book your appointments ahead of time. The same applies if you’re planning basics such as mani, pedi, or facial. 
4. Find an outfit you love. You might have an idea of what you want to wear but don’t go through your closet the night before your shoot. Not only do you want to wear something you love, but you want to make sure it fits you well too. It also helps to choose more than one outfit just in case, or if you want to change outfits for different photos. 
5. Speak to your photographer. Your senior photographer is there to put your mind at ease and make you feel comfortable. If you have questions or you’re worried about something in particular, speak to your photographer ahead of time.
6. Arrange for someone to come along. If you plan to bring someone along to your senior shoot, let them know now when it’s happening. This way, you won’t be left feeling disappointed. 

Once you take care of these things, you can go ahead and relax.
