    What Senior Photography Style are you?

    What Senior Photography Style are you?

    Your Senior Year. Your Style. Which Senior Photography type fits you best?

    High School Senior photos are important for capturing memories, documenting achievements and letting your parents show you off – their pride and joy.

    If you’re looking for an Austin Senior Photographer, what photography style bests fits your personality? Take a look at the descriptions below and see which one you’re most drawn to.

    what senior photography style are you

    — The Four Styles —

    Photography Style Categories

    • Candid and Natural: This style emphasizes capturing genuine moments and emotions. It’s perfect for students who want a relaxed and authentic look. Usually taken outdoors in natural light. 
    • Editorial: This type of photography looks like a dramatic and stylized high-fashion advertising campaign. Can include special lighting techniques. 
    • Artistic and Creative: This style allows for experimentation with different angles, lighting, and props to create unique and eye-catching images.
    • Classic and Timeless: A more traditional approach that focuses on elegance and sophistication. This might best work for a straightforward yearbook headshot. 

    The photography style will impact the overall look and feel of your photo session.

    examples of a natural photography style

      The majority of my portfolio is in the Natural & Candid style.

      Though I will incorporate the other styles as well. It depends on what outfits, location and props the Senior chooses. 

      “Photographs are kept as a diary without words, and the photographer is a writer of memoirs.”
