The senior portrait experience can be significant for many reasons; maybe for you, it’s a self-confidence booster or a reflection of how far you have come. Maybe in your community, it’s a way for you to leave a legacy, or document a once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment. Whatever it may be, taking senior portraits is much more than just some polished photos.
Feeling confident and accomplished
Senior You
Graduating high school is more than just earning a diploma—it's the closing of one chapter and the beginning of a new one filled with unknown experiences, opportunities, and friendships.
Friendships last a lifetime
As senior year approaches, there are so many ‘lasts’ you want to experience, friendships you want to cherish, decisions you have to make, and senior activities to attend. As someone who has once been in the shoes of a high school senior, I can promise that it will go by in the blink of an eye. Investing in senior portraits is a beautiful way to savor everything that being a high school senior has to offer.
Future You
When considering the senior portrait experience, I encourage you to think about your senior year from the perspective of your future self. What do you see? How have you grown? Which memories flash through your mind?
Reflecting on the past, wishing for the future
Senior portraits capture the current version of yourself; the one that is experiencing every emotion and activity that comes with being a high school senior. Being able to look back on the artwork from your photoshoot is truly a bittersweet experience; not only are you looking at your beautiful senior self, but you are transported back to everything you felt and accomplished during the last chapter of life as you knew it.
Company Matters
Additionally, consider your loved ones! As much as graduating high school is about the senior, it's also important to remind yourself of the people who surrounded you on the road to this accomplishment and pushed you during times of doubt.
Whether someone was there to say, “you got this” during a late night study session, or rearranged their schedule to drive you to an extracurricular, every effort that has gotten you to this point becomes worth it. 
A supportive mom is also a best friend!
Trust me when I say that your parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, or anyone that makes you feel loved, will truly cherish these portraits for the rest of their lives. The people who surround you are proud of you and they want to make it known. Being able to hang artwork on the walls, flip through a photo album, give personalized gifts, and even post photos on Facebook helps them share their pride and celebrate with their community.
Professional Use
Not only are senior portraits a fun way to commemorate a huge milestone, but they can also come in handy for future professional settings, such as headshots for a job. Whether you are off to college, taking a gap year, or choosing a different path, having professional photos accessible will be more useful than you may realize.
Plus, it’s probably time to switch out those baby photos that your mom still has displayed on the mantel with a more recent set of professional photos!
