I'd love to get to know you better so I can create senior portraits that reflect your personality. Would you mind taking a few minutes to complete this pre-session questionnaire? The more information I have about you, the more tailored your session will be.

This session is all about you, so I want to make sure that the photos capture your true self. By answering these questions, you can help me understand your interests, hobbies, and style. I will also ask you about your favorite colors, locations, and props.

The more information you provide, the better I will be able to plan your session and capture your personality in the photos. Thank you for taking the time to complete this questionnaire!

Pinterest

One way to help me understand your vision for your senior session is to create a Pinterest board. You can pin images of photos that you like, and I can use this as a visual guide when we plan your session. Please share the board with me about a week before your session date.
YesNo
Here are some tips for creating a Pinterest board for your photo session if you choose to:

Be specific: When you're pinning images, be sure to include captions that explain why you like them. This will help me to better understand your preferences. For example, you could say "I love this photo because of the way the light is hitting her face" or "I really like how this photo captures the energy of the city."

Be creative: Don't be afraid to pin images that are outside of the box. I'm always looking for new and creative ideas, so I'll be excited to see what you come up with. For example, you could pin photos of fashion shoots, art installations, or even just everyday moments that you find inspiring.

Pin images that represent what you are looking for in your session: Your portraits will not look exactly like the pictures you share with me, but we will know what your style is and what you are envisioning. For example, if you want your photos to be natural and candid, you might pin photos of people laughing, playing, or just hanging out.

Please share the board with me about a week before your session date. This will give me plenty of time to plan your session and create a shot list that reflects your vision.
