You’re just a Junior and you just started your winter semester! Why should you even be thinking about Senior Photos now?

Early Bird Gets the Worm.

Photographers will often give special deals in the Spring to get Juniors off their duff and into their studios. Watch those flyers for those early bird specials.  You might even be able to get your sitting fee waived and/or be able to earn credits for you pics.  Check with studios early to see if they need “Reps” to represent their studio at your high school.

Busy as a Bee.

You will find that your Senior year is crammed packed with activities. Not only will you be taking classes and playing on the Lacrosse team. You will probably have a job, you’ll be driving you little sister around, and be filling out a zillion college applications that each require a two page essay; on totally different topics.

During the summer, though you may still be busy, your time is more flexible. Sure you still have to work on Friday night, but you could be up by 11 am for photo shoot if you really needed to. It good to get this checked off your list before your busy Senior year gets into full gear.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.

The weather can be a huge factor in getting your photos taken. If you don’t mind having all your shots taken inside a studio, and there are some photographers with awesome studios, then the winter won’t be that big of deal. But, if you really wanted some outdoor pictures, it could get a little frustrating trying to find a time when Mother Nature is cooperating with your schedules. So getting a shoot date in the Summer will most likely give you more location choices. So hop to it.
