For Seniors: Portrait Session Preparation

Outfit Choices: When picking your outfits, choose ones that really speak to who you are. If you're into a more laid-back style, maybe a pair of jeans and a stylish top. For a touch of formality, perhaps a chic dress or a sharp blazer. Think about colors that complement you and keep patterns simple to let your personality shine through. Layers and accessories can add interesting details, so a cool hat or a unique necklace might be just the right touch.

Location and Lighting: Picking a meaningful location adds a personal touch to your photos. Whether it’s a place you love to visit or somewhere significant to your personal journey, it will add depth to your story. Lighting can dramatically affect the mood and quality of your shots, so aiming for times when the light is soft and flattering—like early morning or late afternoon—is key.

Posing and Expression: Be comfortable and let your natural expressions come through. Practice some poses but keep it flexible. Photos look best when they capture your genuine expressions, so think about things that make you smile or laugh. Your photographer can help with posing, but don't hesitate to throw in your own ideas.
