Now that we've scheduled your session, what happens next?
Your session fee is due before we start. Plan on spending up to 2 hours with me. That includes time in the studio as well as on location. We'll work together to create your session.
Think about props, as well. Do you have a favorite piece of art you've created? Or do you play an instrument, or a sport? You will want to feature these in some of your portraits to highlight the things that make you happy.
You can bring outfits for 2-3 changes. Vary your styles from casual to dressy. Wear and bring outfits that you feel comfortable in and that help you feel great, like you are presenting yourself honestly. The classic jacket and tie shot for the gentlemen has been something that mom likes to have. Jeans and a comfy shirt are more likely to express who you are, so bring both! Don't get locked into thinking you need to have a certain look to take a great photograph. Plain to crazy and everything in between - whatever is YOUR style, bring it!
Men - be sure to shave but don't get a new haircut the day of our session. Get the cut you want a few days before we meet. That gives your hair time to relax and settle into your new style. Ladies, experiment the week before you are coming in to see if you can find a style you want to try. When we are ready to shoot, I want you to love the way you look.
When our session is over, I will edit the images and call you back in to view the results of your time with me. There are print packages available, or you can purchase a la carte what you like best. Your choices will be made available to share on public media - I will post and you can share. Canvas wraps and metal prints are available, too.
Once you have your prints, be sure to frame them and display them. A photo without a frame is like a cake without frosting. I can help you get your prints ready for presentation with acid free mats and your choice of frame. There's nothing like walking into a room and seeing your portrait proudly displayed on the wall.
You're graduating! Be proud of yourself and let's create images that express your success!
Call me at 812.701.3028 to schedule your session, if you haven't already done so. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon!
