SENIOR COLLECTIONS FOR GIRLS
Hey Gorgeous! Congrats on your well-deserved success, and I’m honored that you would consider me to capture this important moment in your life.
Take a peek into the SBP Senior Experience below:
1.
BOOKING YOUR SESSION
Upon inquiry, you will receive my senior investment guide with all of the details you need to know about pricing and package options. From there, I want to make sure that you have a once-in-a-lifetime experience, ensuring that all of your questions are answered, and you are excited to work together! Once things are booked and we’re officially official, we will begin planning all of the fun details for your senior session!
2.
LOCATIONS, OUTFITS AND MORE
When you choose your session date, you will fill out a questionnaire that lets me learn all about you and what you want your session to look like! I will send over location suggestions as well as a style guide to help you choose your outfits, hair, and makeup. I'm here to make this perfect, so no question is off limits!
3.
SESSION DAY
Now it's time for what you've been waiting for...your session day! We will meet up at your first location, make final outfit and accessory decisions, and spend the next hour and a half capturing your laughs, beauty, and excitement!! Don't worry if you've never modeled before... I will teach you everything I know to make you look and feel natural in front of the camera!
4.
IMAGE REVEAL + ORDERING SESSION
This is one of my favorite parts of the process!
The NEXT DAY, after you are photographed we will meet to reveal all of your images and build your portrait collection!
Your ordering session begins with a slideshow
(which sometimes involves a few tears from mom!)
You then will get to see, touch, and feel every product I offer so you can find the things you love the most!
I will then walk you through each custom-designed print and product including polaroids for your friends to beautiful handcrafted albums for your coffee table with graduation announcements, and invitations in between.
We will then work together to create beautifully designed invitations, spreads, choose cover options, fonts, and finalize details for your portrait collection before they are printed and delivered directly to you.

FAQ
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK MY SESSION?
The earlier the better! My calendar books up months in advance. If you would like a fall session, contact me in the summer and if you want a spring session, contact me in the winter.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Don't worry! I am here to help! Not only do I love shopping and helping girls with
their outfits, but I also send every client a style guide.
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS ON THE DAY OF MY SHOOT?
Rain, rain go away! Rain is no fun on a senior session! I will watch the weather the day of your session, keep in contact with you and make the best decision for your shoot. We may need to reschedule but we will get your shoot done!
WHEN DO PHOTOSHOOTS TAKE PLACE?
I schedule shoots on available weekdays and weekends. All shoots take place in
the afternoon/evening to achieve the best possible light. On occasion, morning sessions are available.
I WOULD LOVE TO DO A DESTINATION SESSION! DO YOU TRAVEL?
Heck Yes!! If you have a favorite destination such as the beach, the mountains, the desert, or wherever your heart desires, contact me for a custom quote and travel plan.
SO WHAT'S NEXT?
1.
BOOK YOUR SESSION
So you have decided that SBP is the right senior photographer for you? AWESOME! Shoot me an email, text, or DM and let me know you are ready to book and what session option best fits your needs! Have a preferred month or session date?
Please include that as well!
2.
PAYMENT AND CONTRACT
I will send you a link for your session retainer and contract (which must be taken care of to book your date!)
Once those have been completed we can officially start planning your session!
3.
SESSION PLANNING
This is the fun part! In the weeks before your session, you will receive a style guide with tips for outfit planning and how to prepare for your session as well as a detailed questionnaire so I can get to know you and your vision so we can start planning your big day!
