What to Do with Your Senior Pictures: From Beautiful Images to Treasured Keepsakes
When families first reach out about senior photos, one of the biggest questions is: "What exactly can we do with these images once we have them?"
During our consultation, we talk about your family's specific needs and vision, some families want beautiful prints to share with friends and extended family, the teens want photos to share on social media, while some envision a complete album that tells their senior's entire story. Everyone's different, and that's exactly why we plan your session around what YOU actually want.
Our Product Design Process: Making It Easy and Personal
During our consultation, we talk about what products you're drawn to so I can plan your session to capture exactly the right variety and quantity of images. I'm never overselling or creating more images than you need, instead, I'm making sure we get the perfect collection for your needs.
When you come in for your viewing appointment, we start with a highlight video of some of my favorites from your session. Then we go through each image one by one, and here's the key: we only keep the images YOU have a reaction to. Not what I think you should choose, but the ones that make you light up, smile, or say "oh my gosh, I love that one!"
Once we've narrowed down to your absolute favorites, we sit together to design your products. For albums, we choose cover materials and work through layouts together. For wall art, I can mock up your actual walls so you know exactly what size will work in your space and what frames will look perfect in your home.
What Our Clients Actually Choose (And Why They Love It)
Albums: The Hands-On Favorite Albums are one of our biggest sellers, and I understand why. There's something magical about holding your senior photos in your hands, flipping through pages, and seeing your story unfold. We offer four different sizes, and during our design session, we create custom layouts that tell your unique story.
Moms especially love albums because they become family heirlooms. Twenty years from now, when your senior is showing their own children these photos, an album will still be beautiful and accessible. No technology required, no worries about file formats or broken devices.
Digital Packages: For the Tech-Savvy Families Our digital packages are the other big seller, especially popular with teens who want to share images on social media. We offer a LUXE card so all of your images can easily be found and shared on your very own mobile app. No more USB's or expired online galleries.
Wall Art That Actually Gets Displayed Canvas wall art, metal wall art, and framed prints transform your home and create daily reminders of this special time. During your reveal, I can show you exactly how different sizes will look on your specific walls, taking the guesswork out of ordering.
Custom Graduation Announcement One of our most appreciated products is custom graduation announcements. We design them using your senior photos, and here's the time-saver that makes moms cry happy tears: they can be pre-addressed straight from our lab. You literally just put them in envelopes, add stamps, and mail them. During busy senior year, that convenience is priceless.
