I know your senior year can be overwhelming, with cheerleading, football, band, SATS, senior sunrise, rallys, homecomings and dances. That is why I am here to help all of you seniors from our local high schools, Inderkum High School, Elk Grove High School, Roseville High School, Rocklin High School, Folsom High School, Del Oro High School… the list goes on and on, with the preparations for your senior portrait session, since I am a senior portrait photographer!

There are tons of props you can bring to your senior portrait session, but here are a few of our favorites!

• SPORTS JERSEY AND EQUIPMENT — If you play a sport your senior year, or even in the past, lets include that equipment into the mix. Pom poms are a fun accessory and show movement in a photo! A football helmet looks good on, or even holding it, or lets sling a baseball bat over your shoulder. Adding a jersey or uniform to the mix really captures the whole sports theme, and will be fun to look back on down the road to see what you were into your senior year. A lettermans jacket is one of my favorite outfit choices for your senior session, so throw that baby in!

• YOUR VEHICLE— Bring your truck, car, motorcycle etc… it is a fabulous prop to use!

• BOOKS OR OTHER ACADEMIC MATERIALS— You worked your butt off all your years in High School, let’s showcase that in your photography session! A stack of books, or even a pencil above the year with really show that studious side of you.

• FOUR LEGGED FRIENDS— I mean you are most likely moving away or headed to college, you are going to want a momento of your fur buddy when you leave!

• PERSONALIZED SIGNS– Brining a sign, flag, or pennant from the college you will be attending after your senior year of high school is a great photo opportunity! Those photos can be added to your graduation announcement cards. You can announce to all of your family members and friends where you will be headed to for the next chapter in you life!

• BALLOONS OR CONFETTI— This is a time to celebrate! So bring on the graduation balloons, and confetti. All of those years in high school have paid off! You did it! It’s your senior year of high school and you should go out with a bang!

Your senior year and your senior portrait session are your time to shine! As a senior portrait photographer I want to capture YOU! Just as you are at this moment in time! So pack a bag full of props that scream you!!!!
