For High School Seniors

                     High School Seniors

Your senior year experience should be the greatest experience of your high school career. We would like to be a part of it and offer you the Premier Experience. We realize that your senior portraits are among the most important pictures you will have taken in your life. We have over thirty years of senior experience that will allow you to have the best pictures possible. We want you to be a part of the Premier Experience and let us show the world who you are. 
 
We offer two styles of senior sessions. The first is the traditional session. You pick your session, take your photos, receive your proofs, and choose your portraits. The second is a new type of Senior Portrait pricing. It is all inclusive and offers you the most value for your money. Pricing includes your senior session, senior portraits, and the ability to have a digital version of all of your proofs. We are the only company in the state to offer this type of senior pricing. We sincerely hope you will take advantage of it.

How to look your best for beautiful Senior Portraits.

EVERYONE

Do Not stay up late the night before your session! It will show.

 

Glasses:  They can distort your eyes and face and cause glare which means you will need to pay for extra retouching. We do our best to minimalize glare, but some prescriptions are very strong. We recommend you borrow a pair of lens free frames or have them removed.

Braces:  If you do not want to wait to have them removed/or can not wait, then we can digitally remove them for you. 

Extra charges do apply.

Tan Lines:  Tans look fantastic. Sunburns do not. We recommend you avoid the beach the days before your session if you burn easily and be wary of tan lines.  Please do not use self tanners.

Shorts:  Avoid wearing them.  They make for very difficult sessions.

Hair:  Get hair cuts done a week before your portrait session.  Not the day before.

Clothing:  Solid colors work best, avoid stripes and vivid patterns that might draw attention away from you.

Do bring a shirt, tie, dress pants, and jacket.  Also bring something casual.  Polo shirts and button down shirts work really well for yearbook portraits.  Try to avoid T-shirts

Makeup:  Natural and fresh is the best way to go. Less is more.  Avoid body glitter.

Shirts:  Long sleeves are best.  Absolutely NO halters, Tube tops, or deep V necks.

Outfits:  Bring a variety of them.  Some casual, some more formal.  Bring complete outfits.

Face:  Fresh shaves are a must. 



DON'T FORGET

Variety of outfits

Class Ring

Jewelry for each outfit

Varsity Jackets

Musical Instrument

Sports Gear (Football, Basketball) & any other personal props


We reserve the right to refuse to photograph anyone dressed inappropriatly.
