Hey Class of 2026! 👋 You’ve officially made it to your senior year era—how exciting is that?!
But before school gets crazy with sports, homework, college prep, and all the things… let’s talk about your senior portraits.
I know it’s easy to think “I’ll book later,” but I’m here to tell you—summer is the BEST time for senior pictures, and the best dates book fast. Want to know why? Here are 3 real reasons you’ll thank yourself for booking early:
1️⃣ You’ll Get the Best Dates (and the Best Light!)
Summer means golden sunsets, soft natural light, and gorgeous weather—before monsoon season kicks in. 🌞
June and July are prime time for dreamy outdoor portraits, and those warm, glowing evenings go fast on my calendar. Waiting till fall? You’ll be battling shorter days, colder weather, and limited availability.
👉 FOMO Alert: My June and July sessions are already filling up. Book early to lock in that glowy summer magic!
2️⃣ Avoid the Back-to-School Chaos
Once August hits, your schedule gets packed. Between sports, AP classes, senior events, and college visits, it becomes way harder to find time for a photo session.
Booking your senior pictures in the summer gives you the freedom to relax, feel prepared, and actually enjoy the experience without stressing over your calendar.
🎓 Bonus: You’ll already have beautiful images ready for yearbook deadlines, graduation announcements, and social media posts all year long!
3️⃣ Early Booking = VIP Treatment
When you book early, you’re not just getting a session—you’re getting first dibs on the best locations, time to plan your outfits (with help from my style closet!), and access to exclusive perks like priority editing and album options.
Plus, my seniors who book in summer tend to get more time for creative ideas and bonus photoshoots (hello, cap & gown minis in spring!).
🎯 So, Class of 2026, Here’s the Game Plan:
✅ Pick your date (ASAP)
✅ Schedule in June or July
✅ Let’s create your dream session before life gets hectic
✨ Limited summer spots are left—and once they’re gone, they’re gone.
