Choosing a great spot for your Senior Portrait

There are a couple things that you should consider when deciding on a place where we can photograph your Senior Portraits.  Here are some great questions to start with: Where do you like to hang out?  Are you a downtown-type person?  Do you like fields and farms?  Do you think you would be a little shy being photographed around a lot of people?  Do you have a favorite place you like to relax?  Does peeling paint and metal doors appeal to you?  Do you like texture & color, or do you like it a little more plain?

Keep in mind, though, that many times you can’t even tell where we shoot, particularly in up close shots.

For example, this Senior was sitting on the stones in a parking lot:

This photograph was taken in a large field:

[duh]

A parking lot and chain link fence were the backdrop for this photo:

Or do you like a lot of texture in the background?

Leading lines are also nice:

Unique places like a castle can set your photos apart from the rest:

Old barns, weeds and peeling paint are timeless:

Rust and metal can be a great combination:

Sometimes random buildings are great backdrops

Once you narrow down your style and preference in location, I can give you many suggestions of an actual place where we can photograph you.  If you have a specific place in mind – great!  If you don’t care, that’s great too.  I’m full of ideas of places where we can go.  Email me at teri@teriklingerphotography.com and we can start brainstorming.
